Question

i am learning wcf. so i just write a simple where i use TCP binding & basicHttpBinding. when i am running only service with basicHttpBinding then no problem occur but when i am putting tcp binding then problem occur. so here i am pasting my code and screen shot too. my solution screen shot

here is my full code with config entry details

namespace WcfServiceLibrary4
{
    // NOTE: You can use the "Rename" command on the "Refactor" menu to change the interface name "IService1" in both code and config file together.
    [ServiceContract]
    public interface IService1
    {

        [OperationContract]
        string GetData(int value);

        [OperationContract]
        CompositeType GetDataUsingDataContract(CompositeType composite);

        // TODO: Add your service operations here
    }


    // Use a data contract as illustrated in the sample below to add composite types to service operations.
    [DataContract]
    public class CompositeType
    {
        bool boolValue = true;
        string stringValue = "Hello ";

        [DataMember]
        public bool BoolValue
        {
            get { return boolValue; }
            set { boolValue = value; }
        }

        [DataMember]
        public string StringValue
        {
            get { return stringValue; }
            set { stringValue = value; }
        }
    }
}

namespace WcfServiceLibrary4
{
    // NOTE: You can use the "Rename" command on the "Refactor" menu to change the class name "Service1" in code, svc and config file together.
    public class Service1 : IService1
    {
        public string GetData(int value)
        {
            return string.Format("You entered: {0}", value);
        }

        public CompositeType GetDataUsingDataContract(CompositeType composite)
        {
            if (composite == null)
            {
                throw new ArgumentNullException("composite");
            }
            if (composite.BoolValue)
            {
                composite.StringValue += "Suffix";
            }
            return composite;
        }
    }

when i am running the apps from VS2010 IDE then getting error called Failed to add a service. Service metadata may not be accessible. Make sure your service is running and exposing metadata.

so search google and from this url i came to know that i have to start few services http://rohitguptablog.wordpress.com/2011/06/16/configuring-wcf-service-with-nettcpbinding/

but when i try to start those services then i am getting error
