Can anyone tell me about this error?

system.serviceModel/serviceHostingEnvironment/serviceActivations could not be found.

I'm trying to make WCF app in VS2010 on Windows 7.

Any resolution?

Windows Activation Service is a feature of Windows 2008 Server which allow you to host WCF services using non-HTTP transport protocol, it's an IIS replacement to host services, i do not know if you can run it on a Windows 7.

If you are developing a WCF service on a developer PC you do not need it. You can host your WCF service in a simple console application, in a local HTTP server (VS.NET HTTP) or a local IIS server.

Right click your WCF project in the solution explorer, open Properties, select the Web tab, you should find development servers options (to run it locally, on a remote IIS, or on WAS).
