Error getting binding extensions from machine.config

Details

Explanation

This error occurs when a receive location or send port binding configuration has a user defined binding extension, but it is not defined in machine.config file. This situation occurs primarily with the WCF-Custom and WCF-CustomIsolated adapters.

User Action

Define the binding extension used in the receive location or send port in machine.config file. Also, to get a custom behavior or binding element to work with WCF-Custom adapter, complete these steps:

1. GAC the assembly

2. Modify your machine.config file (found in %FrameworkDir%\v4.0.30319\CONFIG).

   1. Load your behavior DLL inside the Service Configuration Editor (svcConfigEditor.exe).

   2. Save the configuration to an app.config file

   3. Copy and paste the system.servicemodel extensions section in a similar section in machine.config. If system.servicemodel section is not present in machine.config, your must create one. The following is an example from the configuration section of a machine.config file:

        <system.serviceModel>  
          <extensions>  
            <behaviorExtensions>  
              <add name="BizTalkWcfContractNamespaceTestServiceBehaviorExtension" type="ASB.BizTalk.Samples.BizTalkWcfContractNamespaceTestServiceBehaviorExtension, CustomBizTalkWcfBehaviors, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7631521c07cf34b4" />  
            </behaviorExtensions>  
          </extensions>  
        </system.serviceModel>  
      

3. Close and reopen your admin console. You should be able to see your custom behavior in the WCF-Custom adapter, and the port should stay enabled when you enable it.
