I have a WCF service which is consumed by multiple applications. I am able to consume the WCF service in a Silverlight application. But when I try to consume the WCF service in a windows service application, it does not work.

Specifically, the error I am getting in Reference.cs† is:

The type name 'ServiceReference1' does not exist in the type 'xxx.xxx'.

I received this error after using the tool in Visual Studio† to add a service reference to this WCF service and then attempting build the windows service project. Can anyone help?

  • what is the error you get? Post the service and client configs as well – Rajesh Feb 01 '12 at 14:11
  • Make sure that your windows service can read the application configuration file. The default working directory for windows services is C:\Windows\System32, regardless where the executable is located. – Clemens Feb 01 '12 at 14:43
