I have a Silverlight application that calls a WCF successfully in my development environment (Win 7). When i inspect the content type returned in Fiddler, it is showing as below.
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Cache-Control: private
Content-Length: 18849
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8
Server: Microsoft-IIS/7.5
X-AspNet-Version: 4.0.30319
X-Powered-By: ASP.NET
Date: Mon, 01 Sep 2014 14:59:01 GMT
However, as soon as i deploy the application in my QA server (IIS 6.0) the call to the WCF service fails with below error (again according from Fiddler)
HTTP/1.1 415 Cannot process the message because the content type 'application/soap+msbin1' was not the expected type 'text/xml; charset=utf-8'.
I am wondering why it's changing from text/xml; charset=utf-8 in dev to application/soap+msbin1 when deployed.
I have read up about mismatched bindings being the cause and tried to verify that every thing matches between client and server but i am i cant to get the content type matching.
Below are snippets of my configurations.
