Error: The maximum message size quota for incoming messages (65536) has been exceeded.

This error has occurred, when I was calling simple method on WCF service.
I double checked my web.config on server side (IIS) and everything was fine.

But!!! the size 65536 was in client app.config! The client configuration was not reflecting server WCF configuration, changing maxReceivedMessageSize to e.g. 2147483647 is solution.

Error : There was no endpoint listening... WCF

This error has occurred, when I was sending file to WCF service hosted on IIS 7, with more size than 30MB. There is a security limitation in IIS. After adding this lines in the web.config, the problem has been solved.

An error (The request was aborted: The request was canceled.) occurred while transmitting data over the HTTP channel.

I got this error when transmitting large file (byte array) to WCF service.

I double checked my web.config,

but sizing was good enough.

The problem is, that the WCF service is hosted on IIS and  you need to configure quotas on two separated places!!

Add this:

Everything is working now..
