Unrecognized configuration section system.serviceModel
Unrecognized configuration section system.serviceModel
If you get this error when trying to use Indigo, err, I mean WCF, you need to run this command:
xws_reg /i
What happens is the ServiceModel stuff is missing out of your machine.config file. If for some reason this doesn’t work, you can manually copy & paste the following section into your machine.config file.
