I'd have to spend some time on this to make sure I'm not wrong, but I thought I recalled putting together a windows service that exposed a WCF webservice and that that when I did the endpoint (ABC's) was stored in the exe's app.config. Again, I could be wrong as this isn't something I do every day.
For profiling, I meant debugging the code to see exactly why it's throwing an exception. Maybe I can find some free time later to look at this but for now it's christmas tree lights and egg nog. --- On Sun, 11/22/09, james poole <poole.ja...@gmail.com> wrote: > From: james poole <poole.ja...@gmail.com> > Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Self Hosted WCF Service Install > To: chr...@deploymentengineering.com, "General discussion for Windows > Installer XML toolset." <wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net> > Date: Sunday, November 22, 2009, 4:12 PM > So I tried having the App.config get > installed to the same directory, but no luck.
