I have a silverlight client which currently communicates with WCF service unsecuredly.
1>I want to make WCF service secured.(https enabled)
2>I want to refer secure wcf service in silverlight client.
Can anyone help in configuring service?
Web.config :
<serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled="true"></serviceHostingEnvironment>
<bindings>
<basicHttpBinding>
<binding name="MyBasicHttpBinding" >
<security mode="Transport" >
<transport clientCredentialType="None"/>
</security>
</binding>
</basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>
<services>
<service behaviorConfiguration="DataService.Service1Behavior"
name="DataService.Service1">
<endpoint address="" binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="MyBasicHttpBinding"
contract="DataService.IService1">
</endpoint>
<endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange" />
</service>
</services>
<behaviors>
<serviceBehaviors>
<behavior name="DataService.Service1Behavior">
<serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true" />
<serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true" httpHelpPageEnabled="true" httpsHelpPageEnabled="true" />
</behavior>
</serviceBehaviors>
</behaviors>
I am getting following error message:
Could not find a base address that matches scheme https for the endpoint with binding BasicHttpBinding. Registered base address schemes are [http].

The main part you need to correct is binding and service behaviour as givn in following configuration
1) At the place of binding="basicHttpBinding" use binding="wsHttpBinding" 2) At the place of binding="mexHttpBinding" use binding="mexHttpsBinding" 3) In service behaviour serviceMetadata httpsGetEnabled="true"
You can find very easy steps to configure WCF on https here
