I have worked through the calculator example and everything seems to be working until I try to add the service reference for the calculator. I get the following detail error message:
There was an error downloading 'http://localhost:1358/WCFService1/Calculator.svc?wsdl'.
Unable to connect to the remote server
No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.9.1.1:8908 (not a real address) Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved: 'http://localhost:1358/WCFService1/Calculator.svc?wsdl'.
Could not connect to http://localhost:1358/WCFService1/Calculator.svc?wsdl. TCP error code 10061: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.9.1.1:8908 (not a real address).
Unable to connect to the remote server
No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.9.1.1:8908 (not a real address)
If the service is defined in the current solution, try building the solution and adding the service reference again.
Can anyone give me any guidance on where and how to resolve this problem? Thanks in advance.
Chapter 29 in Professional ASP.NET 3.5 In C# and VB does not
have the right info. I am posting this problem today. Maybe one of us
can get a decent reply from Wrox. I suspect the authors have left out
one or two steps in Add Service Reference.
