Large images with wcf - ThrowMaxReceivedMessageSizeExceeded()

I've created a WCF Service to upload images. It works fine with vary small images. But when I try it with image like 800KB I get "The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request." When I look on the log file I see this exception: ThrowMaxReceivedMessageSizeExceeded() I've been looking for ages and tried lots of different things, including setting the maxRequestLength and several other settings.

I have WCFApp, WebApplocation-for my site, and classLibrary-for the BLClient that has the service referece.

These are my config files:

Web.config of the WCFApplication:

 <?xml version="1.0"?>
     <configuration>
  <connectionStrings>
    <add name="photoShopEntities"
         connectionString="metadata=res://*/photoShop.csdl|

         res://*/photoShop.msl;
         provider=System.Data.SqlClient;provider connection string='Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFileName=|DataDirectory|photoShop.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True'"
         providerName="System.Data.EntityClient" />
  </connectionStrings>
  <system.web>

          <!-- To avoid disclosing metadata information, set the value below to false and remove the metadata endpoint above before deployment -->
          <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
          <!-- To receive exception details in faults for debugging purposes, set the value below to true.  Set to false before deployment to avoid disclosing exception information -->
          <serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true"/>
        </behavior>
      </serviceBehaviors>
    </behaviors>
    <serviceHostingEnvironment multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true" />

  </system.serviceModel>

I used mark help, now my site allow to upload large images.

This is the web.config of my WCFApplication after the changes.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
  <connectionStrings>
    <add name="photoShopEntities"
         connectionString="metadata=res://*/photoShop.csdl|
         res://*/photoShop.ssdl|
         res://*/photoShop.msl;
         provider=System.Data.SqlClient;provider connection string='Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFileName=|DataDirectory|photoShop.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True'"
         providerName="System.Data.EntityClient" />
  </connectionStrings>
  <system.web>
    <compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0" />
    <httpRuntime maxRequestLength="2147483647"/>
  </system.web>
  <system.serviceModel>
    <bindings>
      <basicHttpBinding>
        <binding transferMode="Streamed"
                maxReceivedMessageSize="67108864">
          <readerQuotas maxDepth="2147483647" maxStringContentLength="2147483647" maxArrayLength="2147483647"
            maxBytesPerRead="2147483647" maxNameTableCharCount="2147483647" />
          <!-- other config here -->
        </binding>
      </basicHttpBinding>
    </bindings>
    <behaviors>
      <serviceBehaviors>
        <behavior>

          <!-- To avoid disclosing metadata information, set the value below to false and remove the metadata endpoint above before deployment -->
          <serviceMetadata httpGetEnabled="true"/>
          <!-- To receive exception details in faults for debugging purposes, set the value below to true.  Set to false before deployment to avoid disclosing exception information -->
          <serviceDebug includeExceptionDetailInFaults="true"/>
        </behavior>
      </serviceBehaviors>
    </behaviors>
    <serviceHostingEnvironment multipleSiteBindingsEnabled="true" />

  </system.serviceModel>
  <system.webServer>
    <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"/>
  </system.webServer>

</configuration>

Thanks a lot!!

It is in the web.config of the WCF application you have to specify the maxReceivedMessageSize to a higher value.

Ex.

<system.serviceModel>
    <bindings>
        <basicHttpBinding>
             <binding transferMode="Streamed"
                     maxReceivedMessageSize="67108864">
               <!-- other config here -->
            </binding>
        </basicHttpBinding>
    </bindings>
</system.serviceModel>

Check

if it exist in httpTransport element, in App.config of the classLibrary:

maxReceivedMessageSize="104857600"
