I have the following service contract

[OperationContract]
        [WebInvoke(ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json, Method = "POST")]
        List<Myobject> GetAll();

When I call the service method using the IP of the server (An online server) it works, but when I call it using the name of the website it does not work, it returns "Method Not Allowed". The Url of the server is of format "https://www.example.com/myweb (This is not working) While for example xxxx.xx.xx.xx/myweb is working. Please note the these are not the same server, they are two different servers.

where https://www.example.com/myweb is redirected using an HttpProxy (NginX), to xxxx.xx.xx.xx/myweb

Sounds like an NginX configuration issue. – mjwills
@mjwills I suspect in that, but do not know what to do – Hassan Shouman

The error was generated by NginX Adding this statement 

# To allow POST on static pages
        error_page  405     =200 $uri;

to the nginX config file solved the error.
