Answer 1

Change

  <security mode="TransportWithMessageCredential">

To

  <security mode="None">

Also change

<endpoint address="mex" 
                 binding="mexHttpsBinding" 
                 contract="IMetadataExchange" />

to

  <endpoint address="mex"
              binding="mexHttpBinding"
              contract="IMetadataExchange" />

and finally any occurrence of

httpsGetEnabled to httpGetEnabled

Answer 2

I changed my config file to NOne and when I try to get to service from the IE I get this error Could not find a base address that matches scheme http for the endpoint with binding basicHttpBinding. Registered base address schemes are [https]. Any help on what to do next on this

Answer 3

For your second problem with the base addresses: create a <baseAddresses> element in your service tag:

<services>
  <service behaviorConfiguration="WebService.WSBehavior"
    name="IMMSWebService.mywebservice_WS">
    <endpoint 
        address="myproject_WS" 
        binding="basicHttpBinding" 
        bindingConfiguration="basicHttpBinding_Windows"
        bindingName="basicHttpBinding" 
        contract="WebService.ICommand">
      <identity>
        <dns value="localhost" />
      </identity>
    </endpoint>
    <host>
      <baseAddresses> 
         <add baseAddress="http://yourserver:8181/YourServiceBase" />
      </baseAddresses>
      <timeouts closeTimeout="00:10:00" openTimeout="00:10:00" />
    </host>
  </service>

or use fully qualified addresses on your endpoints

<services>
  <service behaviorConfiguration="WebService.WSBehavior"
    name="IMMSWebService.mywebservice_WS">
    <endpoint 
        address="http://yourserver:8181/YourServiceBase/myproject_WS" 
        binding="basicHttpBinding" 
        bindingConfiguration="basicHttpBinding_Windows"
        bindingName="basicHttpBinding" 
        contract="WebService.ICommand">
      <identity>
        <dns value="localhost" />
      </identity>
    </endpoint>
    <host>
      <timeouts closeTimeout="00:10:00" openTimeout="00:10:00" />
    </host>
  </service>
