If the project is working fine locally and not when you deploy to a web server, the first thing to check is if the ServiceModel assemblies are installed in the GAC of the server. If they are not, then in your project, do the following...

1. In the References folder of Solution Explorer, locate the assemblies called System.ServiceModel.DomainServices.*, right click on each and select 'Properties'
2. In the Property window, set 'Copy Local' to true.

This will place these assemblies in the 'bin' directory. Then deploy the bin directory to the service.
