Testing WCF Service failed (System.ServiceModel.AddressAccessDeniedException)

[Stefan Hoffmann]

hi @ll,

I'm testing a WCF service in a VS 2008 Pro test project. The tests fail
due to a System.ServiceModel.AddressAccessDeniedException.

I'm running VS as normal user. What privileges do I need? I don't want
to run my VS as administrator or add my user account to the local
administrator group.

Any clue or link is welcome.

I have never been on a NT based development machine at work or home that I
was not logged in as admin doing development work. I suggest that you do the
same.

hi Peter,

Thanks for your answer.

As for what specific privileges you need, I don't know. You didn't post
any code, nor did you make any statement as to what your code is
attempting to do when the exception occurs.

Sorry, my fault as I've should known better, fyi:

The failing test method is InitializeHost():
---
[TestClass]
public class CalculatorServiceTest : CalculatorLogicTest
{
private ServiceHost serviceHost;

private string testAddress = "http://localhost:9999/Calculator";

private Binding testBinding = new WSHttpBinding();

[TestInitialize]
public void InitializeHost()
{
serviceHost = new ServiceHost(typeof(Calculator));
serviceHost.AddServiceEndpoint(
typeof(ICalculator), testBinding, new Uri(testAddress));
serviceHost.Open();
}

---

The exception occurs in when opening the service host (serviceHost.Open()).


The exception message:
---
HTTP could not register URL http://+:9999/Calculator/. Your process does
not have access rights to this namespace (see
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=70353 for details).
---

The test error message:
---
Initialization method
WcfServiceTestTest.CalculatorServiceTest.InitializeHost threw exception.
System.ServiceModel.AddressAccessDeniedException:

System.Net.HttpListenerException: Access is denied.
