Re: Why does a IIS hosted WCF service implemented with Castle Windsor require a base address?

[Craig Neuwirt]

If it's being hosted in IIS you probably need to mark it as hosted so it should look something like

container.AddFacility<WcfFacility>()
.Register(Component.For<IMyService>().ImplementedBy<MyService>().AsWcfService(new DefaultServiceModel().Hosted()).IsDefault()
