I want add a service reference, and that end point address is provided by outside company (the service is hosted in IIS7) because I need to access to their server to check some data. So they give me a wcf service end point address, I try to add using visual studio 2008, in project select Add service reference. When I press Go, it give me the error message as below:
The document at the url "xxxxx.com/WCFService/Service.svc" was not recognized as a known document type. The error message from each known type may help you fix the problem:
Report from 'DISCO Document' is 'There was an error downloading 'Domainname/ WCFService /Service.svc?disco'.
The remote name could not be resolved: System name
Report from "xxxxx.com/ WCFService /" is 'The document format is not recognized (the content type is 'text/html; charset=UTF-8').'.
Report from 'WSDL Document' is 'The document format is not recognized (the content type is 'text/html; charset=UTF-8').'.
Report from 'XML Schema' is 'The document format is not recognized (the content type is 'text/html; charset=UTF-8').'.
Metadata contains a reference that cannot be resolved: ://xxxxx.com/WCFService /'.
There was no endpoint listening at https://xxxxx.com/WCFService/ that could accept the message. This is often caused by an incorrect address or SOAP action. See InnerException, if present, for more details.
The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.
