Svcutil generating bad config with multiple endpoints
- by vfilby
I have a WCF service that has exposed a soap and an xml endpoint. When I use svcutil to generate the proxy code on the client side the generated configuration contains two endpoints which causes the client to fail. If I edit the web.config file and remove the second endpoint (with the custom binding) all works as expected. Is there a way I can get svcutil to generate a config that just works so that I don't need to hand edit the file everytime?
Client-side error:
An endpoint configuration section for contract 'MyNamespace.ITestService' could not be loaded because more than one endpoint configuration for that contract was found. Please indicate the preferred endpoint configuration section by name.
Svcutil command:
svcutil http://api.local/Test.svc
/reference:bin\MyNamespace.Interface.dll
/config:web.config
/mergeConfig
/out:"Service References\TestService.cs"
/n:*,MyNamespace
