Hi all,
I'm trying to run a WCF ServiceHost as an NT Service on a Windows 2007 SP1 Server. The ServiceHost is reponsible for hosting a single service endpoint: a basicHttpBinding with the following address:
http://localhost:5555/ToBlah
When I run this ServiceHost on my local machine (Windows XP), it works fine - when I POST a SOAP message to it, I get back an HTTP 202 code ("Accepted"), which is the correct response for my service because the contract has IsOneWay=true. However, when I run this on my 2007 server, I get 503 errors when I try to call the service. I have the WCF message logging turned "all the way up," but I'm not seeing any logging whatsoever, which leads me to believe that this is happening at a lower level than WCF (the call never gets to the WCF "layer").
The sys-admins and I have tried various forms of httpcfg commands, but no luck so far.
I know trying to host this in IIS might be a possible solution, but our production app server does not have IIS installed, so I would like to just run the service as a ServiceHost.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
