    text
    copied!<p>I am testing an early release of a WCF web service I have created. On the client side when I use VS to 'add service reference' that all works.</p> <p>But when I try to use the service I get the error,</p> <blockquote> <pre><code>Could not establish trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel with authority ** </code></pre> </blockquote> <p>Where the stars represent the IP address of the server.</p> <p>Anyway on the server there is a security certificate but it has been self generated just for testing, so I am not concerned about certificate errors for the moment.</p> <p>On the client side an app.config has been generated for me,</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?&gt; &lt;configuration&gt; &lt;system.serviceModel&gt; &lt;bindings&gt; &lt;wsHttpBinding&gt; &lt;binding name="BindingName" closeTimeout="00:01:00" openTimeout="00:01:00" receiveTimeout="00:10:00" sendTimeout="00:01:00" bypassProxyOnLocal="false" transactionFlow="false" hostNameComparisonMode="StrongWildcard" maxBufferPoolSize="524288" maxReceivedMessageSize="65536" messageEncoding="Text" textEncoding="utf-8" useDefaultWebProxy="true" allowCookies="false"&gt; &lt;readerQuotas maxDepth="32" maxStringContentLength="8192" maxArrayLength="16384" maxBytesPerRead="4096" maxNameTableCharCount="16384" /&gt; &lt;reliableSession ordered="true" inactivityTimeout="00:10:00" enabled="false" /&gt; &lt;security mode="Transport"&gt; &lt;transport clientCredentialType="Windows" proxyCredentialType="None" realm="" /&gt; &lt;message clientCredentialType="Windows" negotiateServiceCredential="true" /&gt; &lt;/security&gt; &lt;/binding&gt; &lt;/wsHttpBinding&gt; &lt;/bindings&gt; &lt;client&gt; &lt;endpoint address="***************" binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="BindingName" contract="***************" name="BindingName"&gt; &lt;identity&gt; &lt;servicePrincipalName value="***************" /&gt; &lt;/identity&gt; &lt;/endpoint&gt; &lt;/client&gt; &lt;/system.serviceModel&gt; &lt;/configuration&gt; </code></pre> <p>So what settings do I need to change to temporarily ignore certificate errors?</p>
