Silverlight - WCF error


I have a problem consuming a WCF service through a silver light application, the problem suddenly happened today, the same piece of code was running successfully 1 month ago, I got the following exception:

{System.ServiceModel.ProtocolException: The content type multipart/related; type="application/xop+xml";start="<http://tempuri.org/0>";boundary="uuid:22bb2c0b-5a1b-498d-9539-a19fa401d509+id=6";start-info="text/xml" of the response message does not match the content type of the binding (text/xml; charset=utf-8). If using a custom encoder, be sure that the IsContentTypeSupported method is implemented properly. The first 626 bytes of the response were: '

Solution

  • Content-Type: application/xop+xml; suggests that the wcf service is configured to use MTOM encoding on the server which is not supported by Silverlight.

    I am not sure how this could have worked earlier unless there has been a change in the endpoint recently causing this error.
