Transfer larger file using WCF service with basichttpbinding

I'm getting below error when I try to transfer more than 150MB files. 

System.ServiceModel.CommunicationException was unhandled
  Message="An error occurred while making the HTTP request to http://localhost:2122/Service1.svc. This could be due to the fact that the server certificate is not configured properly with HTTP.SYS in the HTTPS case. This could also be caused by a mismatch of the security binding between the client and the server."

By default, the transferMode is buffer, so the large messages are bufferred in memory. If you've access to change Service destination (code), I'd suggest to use transfer mode Streaming or MTOM message encoding to exchange such a large messages/files.

Why are you trying to transmit 150MB across a web service boundary? This design will almost certainly cause you availability issues on the service endpoint.

A better design would be to write the file to disk somewhere, and then send a command message to the service to pick up the file.
