WCF to Java endpoint/contract issue

Question

Getting error with Could not find endpoint element with name 'CaseJacketPort' and contract 'GrandJuryService.CaseJacket'

private void InitProxy()
{
    m_Proxy = new DivisionAssignmentJSS.GrandJuryService.CaseJacketClient("CaseJacketPort");  << error here

From my App.config:

<client>
   <endpoint address="http://172.24.8.125:8080/grandjury/CaseJacketService"
        binding="customBinding" bindingConfiguration="CaseJacketPortBinding1"
        contract="GrandJuryService.CaseJacket" name="CaseJacketPort" />
</client>

as well as

No idea why they cannot see each other?
The error says "This might be because no configuration file was found for your application, or because no endpoint element matching this name could be found in the client element."

when i ^F and search for the pointer they look to all point to one another.

Any ideas?

Just so others can see the solution and not have to spit through the comments.

So is your code in a DLL? In that case the app.config from the app that starts needs the WCF configuration.
