No message was deserialized prior to calling the DispatatchChannelSink

Hi all,

I am working in dotnet remoting using dotnet framework 2.0 in windows xp.
I am hosting the remote object in iis using http channel and binary formatter and registering the object in web.config as given below.

Servide-side config file:

<configuration>
<system.runtime.remoting>
<application>
<channels>
<channel ref="http">
<serverProviders>
<provider ref="wsdl"/>
<formatter ref="binary" typeFilterLevel="Full"/>
<!-- <formatter ref="soap" typeFilterLevel="Full"/> -->
</serverProviders>
<clientProviders>
<formatter ref="binary"/>
</clientProviders>
</channel>
</channels>
<service>
<wellknown mode="SingleCall" type="namespace.classname,assemblyname" objectUri="uriname.rem" />
</service>
</application>
</system.runtime.remoting>
</configuration>

and i am using the client as a web application in the same machine.Whenever i call the remote object from the client. It is giving me an exception as follows.

RemotingException System.Runtime.Remoting.RemotingException: System.ArgumentNullException: No message was deserialized prior to calling the DispatchChannelSink. Parameter name: requestMsg at System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.DispatchChannelSi nk.ProcessMessage(IServerChannelSinkStack sinkStack, IMessage requestMsg, ITransportHeaders requestHeaders, Stream requestStream, IMessage& responseMsg, ITransportHeaders& responseHeaders, Stream& responseStream) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.BinaryServerForma tterSink.ProcessMessage(IServerChannelSinkStack sinkStack, IMessage requestMsg, ITransportHeaders requestHeaders, Stream requestStream, IMessage& responseMsg, ITransportHeaders& responseHeaders, Stream& responseStream) at System.Runtime.Remoting.MetadataServices.SdlChanne lSink.ProcessMessage(IServerChannelSinkStack sinkStack, IMessage requestMsg, ITransportHeaders requestHeaders, Stream requestStream, IMessage& responseMsg, ITransportHeaders& responseHeaders, Stream& responseStream) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.Http.HttpHandlerT ransportSink.HandleRequest(HttpContext context) at System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.Http.HttpRemoting Handler.InternalProcessRequest(HttpContext context)

If i use formatter as SOAP it is working fine. Can anyone point out what is wrong in config file.

Client side config file:

<configuration>
<system.runtime.remoting>
<application>
<channels>
<channel ref="http" >
<clientProviders>
<formatter ref="binary"/>
</clientProviders>
<serverProviders>
<formatter ref="binary" typeFilterLevel="Full"/>
</serverProviders>
</channel>
</channels>
</application>
</system.runtime.remoting>
</configuration>
