WCF endpoint not found

Question

I'm following a tutorial in a book to implement push notifications for Windows Phone. This is the markup of the service:

<%@ ServiceHost Language="C#" Debug="true" Service="Service.PushService" CodeBehind="PushService.svc.cs" Factory="System.ServiceModel.Activation.WebServiceHostFactory" %>

As you see, a factory is added, although I don't really understand what it's for. When running the service, I get a "endpoint not found" error. When I remove the factory from the markup, the error disappears, but I get an empty page.

Any idea what could cause this error or how to fix it? If you need more code, please tell me.

Thanks

EDIT: My web.config:

  <appSettings>
    <add key="aspnet:UseTaskFriendlySynchronizationContext" value="true" />
  </appSettings>
  <system.web>
    <compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.5" />
    <httpRuntime targetFramework="4.5"/>

          <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" httpsGetEnabled="true"/>
          <!-- To receive exception details in faults for debugging purposes, set the value below to true.  Set to false before deployment to avoid disclosing exception information -->
          <serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="false"/>

  <system.webServer>
    <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"/>
    <!--

      -->
    <directoryBrowse enabled="true"/>

You are missing the endpoint configuration in your web.config.

Add this to your web.config:

<system.serviceModel>
  <services>
    <service name="Service.PushService">
      <endpoint address="" binding="basicHttpsBinding"
                contract="Service.IPushService" />
    </service>
  </services>
</system.serviceModel>
