[Saumitra Kumar Paul]

Hello friends,

I am new to WCF. Now working with a learning example. My environment is VS2008, .Net framework 3.5, Hosted in Windows sever 2003 R2.

The following code i have in a Service.svc file-

<% @ServiceHost Language=C# Debug="true" Service="MyWCFService" CodeBehind="~/App_Code/Service.cs" %>

But when i test it in browser, browser returns an error with the following lines-

The XML page cannot be displayed

A name was started with an invalid character. Error processing resource "http://localhost/WCFServiceDemo/Service.svc". Error on line 1 at column 2:

I could not find the error.

Any help is appreciable.
