Content Type application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8 was not supported by service
wcf
Solution
I run into naming problem. Service name has to be exactly name of your implementation. If mismatched, it uses by default `basicHttpBinding` resulting in `text/xml` content type.
Name of your class is on two places - SVC markup and CS file.
Check endpoint contract too - again exact name of your interface, nothing more. I've added assembly name which just can't be there.
<service name="MyNamespace.MyService">
<endpoint address="" binding="wsHttpBinding" contract="MyNamespace.IMyService" />
<endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange"/>
</service>
Problem
I am getting the error below while trying to add WCF service to WCFTestClient. I went through a number of solutions on the web but I couldn't get it to work. Can someone help me with the issues? I am also providing my config file for service: Content Type application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8 was not supported by service The client and service bindings may be mismatched. The remote server returned an error: (415) Cannot process the message because the content type 'application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8' was not the expected type 'text/xml; charset=utf-8 Code: ``` <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <configuration> <system.web> <compilation debug="true" /> </system.web> <!-- When deploying the service library project, the content of the config file must be added to the host's app.config file.
