WCF/WF - Error streaming over WCF

Asked By Justin P on 25-Mar-11 10:21 AM

Earn up to 20 extra points for answering this tough question.

I have been trying to set up streaming of files with a simple WCF service. It has two basic operations: upload and download. I continuously get the following error:

Content Type multipart/related;
type="application/xop+xml";start="<http://tempuri.org/p>";boundary="uuid:eb090162-5a98-4569-937b-63baaad88ee3+id=1";start-info="text/xml" was not supported by service http://localhost/FileService/Service1.svc. The client and service bindings may be mismatched.

I have been round and round looking for a solution. I still have not found one. Any help is appreciated. I have attached my client and service config files

to upload and download file you need to transfer it as a byte stream. Look at this example from MSDN

and article

Those were two of the examples I was using to base my project on. I was streaming. Did you notice anything with what i showed that would relate to the error?
