The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

WCF Service. HTTP 404 Error "The resource cannot be found." when deployed to production server

Asked by johnaryan in Web Services and WCF, .NET Framework 3.x versions, Microsoft IIS Web Server

Tags: WCF, 404, IIS

I created a basic WCF Service. When i run it locally it has no issues but when i put it on my hosted server i get a 404 error when i try to access it directly.

To create the service, I created a new Visual Studio 2008 "WCF Service Application" and configured it to use IIS. I complied and ran it hitting the site "http://localhost/WcfService1/Service1.svc" to view the service test page and this worked fine.

The problem occurs when i deploy it to my hosted site
I hit my site "http://webservice.mydomain.com/Service1.svc" and get the following error:

The resource cannot be found.
Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.  Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.
Requested URL: /webservice/Service1.svc

Any ideas?
John
