Server Error in ‘/generalservice’ Application.
The type ‘GeneralService.Service1’, provided as the Service attribute value in the ServiceHost directive, or provided in the configuration element system.serviceModel/ serviceHostingEnvironment/serviceActivations could not be found.
“generalservice” is the name of the application in IIS. I renamed Service1 into “GeneralService” and the implementing class into Maths. But when I publish the service to IIS, I got the error above. The issue was in the GeneralService.svc (that was earlier named as “Service1.svc”) the ServiceHost service was still registered as
Service=”GeneralService.Service1″
Updated to Service=”GeneralService.Maths”. Issue Solved 🙂
