Hi,
I have tried several times to have my WCF service expose MetaData. Instead, I keep keeping the exception:
The contract name 'IMetadataExchange' could not be found in the list of contracts implemented by the service SecurityBroker. Add a ServiceMetadataBehavior to the configuration file or to the ServiceHost directly to enable support for this contract.
... when manually browsing to the service using IE.
(I am presuming this is the same reason why my client application isn't able to generate a service reference. Baby steps and all)
And yet my web.config looks okay:
<system.serviceModel>
<serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="true" />
<behaviors>
<endpointBehaviors>
<behavior name="webHttpEnablingBehaviour">
<webHttp />
</behavior>
</endpointBehaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="webHttpEnablingBehaviour">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" />
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<services>
<service name="IWW.MIGTurbo2.WCF.Security.SecurityBroker">
<endpoint contract="IMetadataExchange" binding="mexHttpBinding" address="mex" />
<endpoint address=""
binding="webHttpBinding"
bindingConfiguration="default"
contract="IWW.MIGTurbo2.WCF.Security.ISecurityBroker"
behaviorConfiguration="webHttpEnablingBehaviour">
</endpoint>
</service>
</services>
<client />
<bindings>
<webHttpBinding>
<binding name="default" />
</webHttpBinding>
</bindings>
</system.serviceModel>
So I have my IMetadataExchange contract defined with mex fine, and hooked up, as far as I can see. Have I missed something daft?
Edit
My Service definition is shown below, if this is useful:
<%@ ServiceHost Language="C#" Debug="true" Service="IWW.MIGTurbo2.WCF.Security.SecurityBroker" Factory="System.ServiceModel.Activation.WebScriptServiceHostFactory" %>
