WCF service error 400 bad request

Question

I've been searching this problem, and I found similar problems posted by other users, but everything I've tried doesn't work, The problem is that I'm using a WCF service hosted on IIS, and a client that try to upload a serialized image on a string, the size of the image is 9mb aprox, everythin else works fine, I can send data without problem except the image.

I have enabled tracelog and the error message says that the MaxReceivedMessageSize exceed

Here is my config on service:

<system.diagnostics>

    <source name="System.ServiceModel"
        switchValue="Information, ActivityTracing"
        propagateActivity="true" >

        <endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange" />
    </service>
</services>

And the client config

<system.serviceModel>
    <bindings>
        <basicHttpBinding> 
            <binding name="BasicHttpBinding_IServicioSalud" closeTimeout="10:01:00"

                messageEncoding="Text" textEncoding="utf-8" transferMode="Buffered"
                useDefaultWebProxy="true" 
                <readerQuotas maxDepth="32" maxStringContentLength="2147483647" maxArrayLength="2147483647"
                    maxBytesPerRead="4096" maxNameTableCharCount="2147483647" />
                <security mode="None">
                    <transport clientCredentialType="None" proxyCredentialType="None"
                        realm="" />
                    <message clientCredentialType="UserName" algorithmSuite="Default" />
                </security>
            </binding>
        </basicHttpBinding>
    </bindings>
    <client>
        <endpoint address="http://xxx.xxx.x.xxx:xxxx/wcfservicesalud/Service.svc"
            binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="BasicHttpBinding_IServicioSalud"
            contract="IServicioSalud" name="BasicHttpBinding_IServicioSalud" />
    </client>
</system.serviceModel>

Answer 1

In your config file you have not assigned the binding configuration you created, so the default values for BasicHttpBinding are being used. You need to explicitly assign the binding you defined (BasicHttpBinding_IServicioSalud) to your endpoint, like this:

<endpoint address="" bindingConfiguration="BasicHttpBinding_IServicioSalud" binding="basicHttpBinding" contract="IServicioSalud" />

Do this for your service config, as the service needs to be set to accept larger data.
