Hi All,

I am using the WCF Test Client. When I go to 'add service' and select a service to add I get this message,

Assembly Microsoft.ApplicationServer.Hosting, Version 1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35 was not found. Reinstall the assembly or Visual Studio. The application cannot continue and will exit.

The service I am using is on the web, i.e. it is not being hosted locally on my machine. It is also using https.

Any ideas?

A: 

You should reinstall the Microsoft.ApplicationServer.Hosting (or Visual Studio), as this assembly is missing. This has nothing to do with the web service, the assembly to consume a service is not installed.

OK, thanks. But that is just what the message says. How can I reinstall that assembly? I have been developing this web service on my machine including writing client code to test the service. So I am finding it hard to believe that using this tool wouldn't work because the assembly to 'consume' a service is not installed.

Something doesn't quite add up.

Hm, okay. Out of my area of expertise then, never have dealt with it before, it just sounded like it.

Never figured this one out to be honest?
