WCF and x509 certificates
Dec 7 2008 5:54 PM
Hope you can help me with this. I am fairly new to WCF and created a WCF service and a client, both working fine when on the same server and same website (win2003/iis6). Now I wanted to host WCF services on a separate machine. I created a test environment with two Win2003/IIS6 servers. One hosts WCF services, another one hosts the website that consumes those services. I set up x509 certificates as per this article: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/WCF/wcf_certificates.aspx
I ran into a bunch of errors which I resolved and now I am stuck on this error for few days already:
The request for security token has invalid or malformed elements.
Here's the client code:
WCFCategories.CategoriesClient client = new WCFCategories.CategoriesClient();
Textbox1.Text = client.GetCategoriesInXML(611);
Here are my service / client web.config files:
SERVICE
