How to solve "The ChannelDispatcher is unable to open its IChannelListener" error?
- by kyrisu
Hi,
I'm trying to communicate between WCF hosted in Windows Service and my service GUI. The problem is when I'm trying to execute OperationContract method I'm getting
"The ChannelDispatcher at
'net.tcp://localhost:7771/MyService'
with contract(s) '"IContract"' is
unable to open its IChannelListener."
My app.conf looks like that:
<configuration>
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<netTcpBinding>
<binding name="netTcpBinding">
<security>
<transport protectionLevel="EncryptAndSign" />
</security>
</binding>
</netTcpBinding>
</bindings>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="MyServiceBehavior">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" httpGetUrl="http://localhost:7772/MyService" />
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true" />
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
<services>
<service behaviorConfiguration="MyServiceBehavior"
name="MyService.Service">
<endpoint address="net.tcp://localhost:7771/MyService" binding="netTcpBinding"
bindingConfiguration="netTcpBinding" name="netTcp" contract="MyService.IContract" />
</service>
</services>
</system.serviceModel>
Port 7771 is listening (checked using netstat) and svcutil is able to generate configs for me.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

There's one inner exeption (but not under Exeption.InnerExeption but under Exeption.Detail.InnerExeption - ToString() method doesn't show that)
A registration already exists for URI 'net.tcp://localhost:7771/MyService'.
But my service have specified this URI only in app.config file nowhere else. In entire solution this URI apears in server once and client once.
