Service endpoint binding not using the HTTP protocol

Question

I have a WCF Service running fine on my local machine. I put it on the servers, and I am receiving the following error:

An error occurred while receiving the HTTP response to http://xx.xx.x.xx:8200/Services/WCFClient.svc. This could be due to the service endpoint binding not using the HTTP protocol. This could also be due to an HTTP request context being aborted by the server (possibly due to the service shutting down). See server logs for more details.]

I have gone to the service in the url and it is working correctly. All I am doing for the function is returning a string to an image name, so the data being passed isn't a lot. I have traced the log and it gives me the same information. Here is my client config:

<binding name="basicHttpBinding_IWCFClient" closeTimeout="00:01:00"
         openTimeout="00:01:00" receiveTimeout="00:10:00" sendTimeout="00:01:00"

    <security mode="None">

        <message clientCredentialType="UserName" algorithmSuite="Default" />
    </security>
</binding>
<endpoint name="basicHttpBinding_IWCFClient"
    address="http://localhost:4295/Services/WCFClient.svc"
    binding="basicHttpBinding"
    bindingConfiguration="basicHttpBinding_IWCFClient"

    contract="WCFClient.IWCFClient" />

Here is my server config:

<service behaviorConfiguration="WCFGraphicManagementTool.Services.WCFClientBehavior"
    name="WCFGraphicManagementTool.Services.WCFClient">
   <endpoint name="basicHttpBinding_IWCFClient"
       address=""

       contract="WCFGraphicManagementTool.Contracts.IWCFClient" />
   <endpoint
       address="mex"

       contract="IMetadataExchange" />
</service>

Would it be a setting on the server since it works on my local machine?

Answer 1

 refer this discussion, might helps or wait for more replies..

  

Answer 2

It is on the server with the server's IP address. I just copied this from my local machine. The files on the server and the local machine are the same except for the IP address.

Answer 3

 try change localhost to server ip address..

  address="http://1.1.1.1(server ip address)/Services/WCFClient.svc"
