EndpointNotFoundException was unhandled

[Carneno]

Hello,

I downloaded and installed Visual COBOL for Visual Studio Personal Edition v2.2 0.  I have Visual Studio 2012 Pro Version 1.0.61030.00 Update 4.

I wanted to test the WCF program installed here: C:\Users\Public\Documents\Micro Focus\Visual COBOL\Samples\WCF\WEB WCF Service.

When I follow the instructions given in the Readme.xml and key in a number and hit enter, I get the following error:

The debugger highlights this line: Console.WriteLine(client.GetData(enter)); in the Program.cs file.

Does anybody know how to fix this error?

I'm an old COBOL programmer with 40 years of experience on WANG VS and HP3000 systems trying to learn something about the newer COBOL programming.

Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks,
Tony

Hi,

There appears to be a bug in the example in that the WCF service is set to use a dynamically assigned port number and the client is using a specific port number of 61488 which is specifed in the app.config file.

To fix this open up the properties page for the WebWCFService project and click on the Web tab.

Change the option from auto-assign port to specifc port and use port number 61488.

It should then run correctly.

Thanks

Thanks Chris.

That fixed the problem.
