Receiving this error when trying to work with the queue:
Unexpected error occured: The communication object, System.ServiceModel.ServiceHost, cannot be used for communication because it is in the Faulted state. at System.ServiceModel.Channels.CommunicationObject.Close(TimeSpan timeout)
How to overcome it?
Update: answer to my solution posted at the end
Update: In my case what helped was:
1) enabling trace logs: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms732023.aspx
2) in the trace log it wrote this:
Binding validation failed because the binding's ExactlyOnce property is set to true while the destination queue is non-transactional. The service host cannot be opened. Resolve this conflict by setting the ExactlyOnce property to false or creating a transactional queue for this binding.
The answer says it all. Created a transactional queue - everything works :) hope it helps people :)
