When trying to create a simple service to return a simple JSON string by following several tutorials. I get stuck on two different machines with a HTTP Statuscode 400 bad request. Example tutorials RESTful WCF Service with JSON pt.1 & pt.2 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BbDxB_5CZ8
I have also Google and searched here (StackOverflow) for similar problem without success.
The problem is I get the 400 bad request when trying to do a sanity check to browse to the WCF service and execute the method. By compiling the service and browse this address: http://localhost:49510/Service1.svc/GetPerson Just like the tutorial. I have tried finding a solution for like 3 days. Any help is appreciated.
This is what I do.
First i create a new project a simple WCF Service application. I delete the default Service1.svc and add a new WCF Service, that generate a new Service1.svc and a IService1.cs
Here is the code for the interface (IService1.cs)
namespace WcfService1
{
// NOTE: You can use the "Rename" command on the "Refactor" menu to change the interface name "IService1" in both code and config file together.
[ServiceContract]
public interface IService1
{
[OperationContract]
[WebInvoke(Method="GET", BodyStyle=WebMessageBodyStyle.Bare, ResponseFormat=WebMessageFormat.Json, RequestFormat=WebMessageFormat.Json, UriTemplate="GetPerson")]
Person GetPerson();
}
[DataContract(Name="Person")]
public class Person
{
[DataMember(Name="name")]
public string Name { get; set; }
}
}
Here is the code for the Service1.svc
namespace WcfService1
{
// NOTE: You can use the "Rename" command on the "Refactor" menu to change the class name "Service1" in code, svc and config file together.
public class Service1 : IService1
{
public Person GetPerson()
{
return new Person() { Name = "Tobbe" };
}
}
}
And the Web.config is untouched and look likes this web.config
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0" />
</system.web>
<system.serviceModel>
