  1. POapp.config being ignored?
    text
    copied!<p>I have read several posts where users were having this same issue. When compiled, the .exe is unable to load any resources from app.config. This is occurring even when the app.config is copied to the output directory.</p> <p>Specifically, I'm having an issue with a web service client being unable to determine the proper endpoint configuration, even if I statically compile it in like this:</p> <pre><code>this.ws = new MyServicePortTypeClient("MyServicePort", "http://mysite.com/customer_portal/ws.php"); </code></pre> <p>The exception thrown states "System.InvalidOperationException: Could not find default endpoint element that references contract 'MyWebService.MyServicePortType' in the ServiceModel client configuration section. This might be because no configuration file was found for your application, or because no endpoint element matching this contract could be found in the client element."</p> <p>I'm at a loss so any help would be appreciated.</p> <p><strong>Edit:</strong> Here's the MyService.exe.config</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?&gt; &lt;configuration&gt; &lt;configSections&gt; &lt;/configSections&gt; &lt;system.serviceModel&gt; &lt;bindings&gt; &lt;basicHttpBinding&gt; &lt;binding name="MyServiceBinding" closeTimeout="00:01:00" openTimeout="00:01:00" receiveTimeout="00:10:00" sendTimeout="00:01:00" allowCookies="false" bypassProxyOnLocal="false" hostNameComparisonMode="StrongWildcard" maxBufferSize="65536" maxBufferPoolSize="524288" maxReceivedMessageSize="65536" messageEncoding="Text" textEncoding="utf-8" transferMode="Buffered" useDefaultWebProxy="true"&gt; &lt;readerQuotas maxDepth="32" maxStringContentLength="8192" maxArrayLength="16384" maxBytesPerRead="4096" maxNameTableCharCount="16384" /&gt; &lt;security mode="None"&gt; &lt;transport clientCredentialType="None" proxyCredentialType="None" realm="" /&gt; &lt;message clientCredentialType="UserName" algorithmSuite="Default" /&gt; &lt;/security&gt; &lt;/binding&gt; &lt;/basicHttpBinding&gt; &lt;/bindings&gt; &lt;client&gt; &lt;endpoint address="http://mysite.com/customer_portal/ws.php" binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="MyServiceBinding" contract="MyWebService.MyServicePortType" name="MyServicePort" /&gt; &lt;/client&gt; &lt;/system.serviceModel&gt; &lt;/configuration&gt; </code></pre>
