UPDATE: i have solved my issue:
the following config line needed removed:
<serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="true"
multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true" />
When i run the wcftestclient utility i get the following error and result from the services when invoking hello world. Any help is greatly appreciated. I cant seem to find the issue as to why it wont invoke the specific method and return the string for hello world.
Failed to invoke the service. Possible causes: The service is offline or inaccessible; the client-side configuration does not match the proxy; the existing proxy is invalid. Refer to the stack trace for more detail. You can try to recover by starting a new proxy, restoring to default configuration, or refreshing the service.
