What is the custom header you added? Is it a request header or a response header?

Hi,
I tried to add the custom HTTP header in the WCF routing service, the code is same as above. However this is found that added HTTP header was deleted in the WCF service.

Any help and suggestions? This is urgent one.

Hi Kenny,

Thanks for the sample. Is there any way to have that code execute for every call to the client? I’m trying to do exactly what you are doing there, but with an interceptor/inspector/behavior defined in configuration.

Hi,
When I tried your code snippet, the connection is getting closed abruptly. Using the wcftestviewer.exe, I
am seeing the following details in the log file.
The Exception type: EndpointNotFoundException. The message is There was no channel that could accept the message with action.

The warning message says that,
The incoming message is not part of the existing security session.

Any help?

Thanks,
Saran

Is this on your request or response? I would recommend posting on the WCF forum for this question.

[...] WCF has a very powerful extensibility mechanism around modifying HTTP headers. However, you will get tripped up if you try and modify the “Expect: 100-Continue” header on outgoing requests. This is because System.Net will (by default) add this header on outgoing requests. [...]
