Getting "The remote server returned an unexpected response: (400) Bad Request"

I am guessing you are missing this in web.confg

<system.web>

        <httpRuntime maxRequestLength="102400"/>

Hi,

  I am running a WPF app with a remote server setup but get the error listed.

This is definitely a request size issue since I tried reducing the data size being sent and the call worked fine.  From my configuration it looks like I have 2 Gigs set up, but it behaves like only the default limit (something like 65000 bytes) is being used.  I am thinking there is something wrong with my configuration.

Any help would be appreciated!

Mark.

  I have a remote Server set up using WCF web.config:

  <system.serviceModel>
    <bindings>
      <wsHttpBinding>
        <binding name="wsHttpBindingSettings" closeTimeout="00:10:00" openTimeout="00:10:00" sendTimeout="00:10:00" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647" maxBufferPoolSize="2147483647" messageEncoding="Text">
          <readerQuotas maxDepth="2147483647" maxStringContentLength="2147483647" maxArrayLength="2147483647" maxBytesPerRead="2147483647" maxNameTableCharCount="2147483647" />
        </binding>
      </wsHttpBinding>
    </bindings>
    <services>
      <service name="Csla.Server.Hosts.WcfPortal">
        <endpoint contract="Csla.Server.Hosts.IWcfPortal" binding="wsHttpBinding"/>
      </service>
    </services>
  </system.serviceModel>

And my app.config on the client is:

  <system.serviceModel>
    <bindings>
      <wsHttpBinding>
        <binding name="wsHttpBindingSettings" closeTimeout="00:10:00" openTimeout="00:10:00" sendTimeout="00:10:00" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647" maxBufferPoolSize="2147483647" messageEncoding="Text">
          <readerQuotas maxDepth="2147483647" maxStringContentLength="2147483647" maxArrayLength="2147483647" maxBytesPerRead="2147483647" maxNameTableCharCount="2147483647" />
        </binding>
      </wsHttpBinding>
    </bindin gs>
    <client>
      <endpoint name="WcfDataPortal" address="http://alcatraz.dev/AlcatrazHost/WcfPortal.svc" binding="wsHttpBinding" contract="Csla.Server.Hosts.IWcfPortal" bindingConfiguration="wsHttpBindingSettings" />
    </client>
  </system.serviceModel>

I just noticed that you do not specify binding configuration in your end point, so none of your limits are actually used.  You have to add bindingConfiguration node to your end point definition to point to your wsHttpBindingSettings configuration.,

<system.serviceModel>
    <bindings>
      <wsHttpBinding>
        <binding name="wsHttpBindingSettings" closeTimeout="00:10:00" openTimeout="00:10:00" sendTimeout="00:10:00" maxReceivedMessageSize="2147483647" maxBufferPoolSize="2147483647" messageEncoding="Text">
          <readerQuotas maxDepth="2147483647" maxStringContentLength="2147483647" maxArrayLength="2147483647" maxBytesPerRead="2147483647" maxNameTableCharCount="2147483647" />
        </binding>
      </wsHttpBinding>
    </bindings>
    <services>
      <service name="Csla.Server.Hosts.WcfPortal">
        <endpoint contract="Csla.Server.Hosts.IWcfPortal" binding="wsHttpBinding"/>
      </service>
    </services>
  </system.serviceModel>
