Does a WCF Service that runs over tcp.net require IIS


I'm trying to deploy a WCF service that uses a netTcpBinding (and a mexTcpBinding for metadata) on a remote server (Win 2008 R2) without installing IIS.

Trouble is, everything I'm trying is telling me I need various IIS components installed on the remote box.
Is that really the case? It seems to me that, with a tcp.net connection, I should be fine without IIS.


Solution

  • You don't need IIS, here's an MSDN article called How to: Host WCF in a Windows Service Using TCP

    It seems to be fairly detailed and easy to follow.
