The caller was not authenticated by the service

I am using a WCF 4 web service with a wshttpbinding and am getting the below error when trying to retrieve records via my hosting service.

Note that I am able to run my service locally fine and when invoking it via the WCF Client test tool, I get valid results back.

I've looked up this msg and there appears to be lots of activity on it (which partially, I have tried, but not worked) but nothing specific to suit my needs to simply just get the service to invoke methods properly.

I would appreciate it very much if someone could provide the exact syntax I would need updated in my following config files in order for this to get to work. I personally don't care what kind of security is used. It would be fine if "None" was used.

Thanks so much in advance.

The caller was not authenticated by the service.

What was the solution?

 

Yes, please... What WAS YOUR SOLUTION???

If you don't mind, please enlighten the rest of us.

 

I needed to add the following to the client web.config file:

Inside the system.web node:
<trust level="Full"></trust>
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<wsHttpBinding>
<security mode="Message">
<transport clientCredentialType="Windows" proxyCredentialType="None" realm="" />
<message clientCredentialType="Windows" negotiateServiceCredential="true" algorithmSuite="Default" />
</security>

 

I added the code (<trust level="Full"></trust> above <system.serviceModel>) but it gives following error:


Configuration Error
