Msgstr "The maximum exceeded message size quota for incoming messages (65536) has been exceeded.". Even after installing a larger size

Question

I am trying to access the WCF service from a Windows Forms client application. My server binding configuration is as follows:

<bindings> <customBinding> <binding name="Wrabind" closeTimeout="00:05:00" openTimeout="00:05:00" sendTimeout="00:25:00"> <textMessageEncoding /> <security authenticationMode="SecureConversation" includeTimestamp="true" messageSecurityVersion="WSSecurity11WSTrustFebruary2005WSSecureConversationFebruary2005WSSecurityPolicy11BasicSecurityProfile10"> <localClientSettings maxClockSkew="00:30:00" /> <localServiceSettings maxClockSkew="00:30:00" /> <secureConversationBootstrap messageSecurityVersion="WSSecurity11WSTrustFebruary2005WSSecureConversationFebruary2005WSSecurityPolicy11BasicSecurityProfile10"> <localClientSettings maxClockSkew="00:30:00" /> <localServiceSettings maxClockSkew="00:30:00" /> </secureConversationBootstrap> </security> <httpTransport maxBufferPoolSize="20000000" maxReceivedMessageSize="20000000" allowCookies="true" maxBufferSize="20000000" /> </binding> </customBinding> </bindings> 

As you can see, I already set maxReceivedMessageSize to 20,000,000, but still showed the exception "The maximum message size quota for incoming messages (65536) has been exceeded." . Did I miss something?

Answer 1

Perhaps this error comes from the client, not from the server. Verify that the same setting exists in the client configuration.

Answer 2

WCF server-side settings in this case do not matter. Client-side binding configuration is your enemy ...

Answer 3

From here : -

You may need to add "binding.MaxBufferSize = 2147483647". "ServiceReferences.ClientConfig" will be automatically updated after updating or reconfiguring the service link. Therefore, if you provided the correct service level binding configurations using "App.config" from your WCF library, this configuration will be automatically inherited by the silverlight consumer. But all this will not happen if you dynamically create bindings in the code.
