Steve,

I tried opening http://ALEX-PC/HelloIndigo in the web browser and I get the
following error

Internet Information Services 7.0

Error Summary
HTTP Error 404.0 - Not Found
The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name changed, or
is temporarily unavailable.

I am not sure whether I should add the port number as stated in the
app.config file.In the web.config, we have:
http://localhost:8000/HelloIndigo/. Will appreciate any suggetions. I will be
sending the solution to your email address for help.

Hi Alex,

From your description, you're encountering some problem when try to call
a
sample WCF service ,correct?

According to the configuration fragment you provided, the WCF service
itself is not quite complex. It use the the basicHttpBinding with default
settings. And it expose the service at the following baseAddress:

http://ALEX-PC/HelloIndigo

Have you tried using webbrowser to visit the above address to see whether
you can get the metadata of the wcf service?

If the metadata can be got correctly, you can just use "Add
ServiceReference" to generate the wcf client proxy in visual studio.
