WCF self-service with transport security (Authentication failed because the remote side closed the transport stream.)

Question

I have an independent service, to which I want to add transport security. I set WSHttpBinding.SecurityMode for transport and ClientCredentialType for HttpClientCredentialType.None. I created a certificate and installed it on my host using ServiceHost.Credentials.ServiceCertificate.SetCertificate () I also registered it using netsh http add sslcert ipport = 127.0.0.1: 80 certhash = [MyCertHash] certstorename = MY appid = [TheGuidOfTheAppTertvice] verifyclientcertrevocation = disable

When I try to call the service, I get the following error message: "Authentication failed because the remote side has closed the transport stream."

Does this mean that the client and server are trying to authenticate each other? How can i turn it off? To make everything clear, I don’t want to install the certificate on the client, I’m not looking for any atm authentication, I just protect the contents of the messages, if possible.

Answer 1

This MSDN post may help solve your problem. The initial request in the message is to configure a different security mode than yours, but they will switch to transport mode for troubleshooting, and this information should apply to your situation.

• The server certificate fingerprint was set by the administrator using the following command (use the netshequivalent for newer versions of Windows)

• This client also has the same outstanding root CA certificate on the client machine.
