    WCF service in Umbraco

    Using Umbraco And Getting Started
    Umbraco 7

    Hi Guys,

    I created a wcf service in my Umbraco Project. In the wcf service i added the following:

        [OperationContract]

    [WebGet(UriTemplate = "/RAEvents/GetAllEvents", ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)]

    List<WCFEvent> GetAllEvents();

    and i tried calling the wcf service on my web browser using :

        https://{ipaddress}/ra2/RAService.svc/RAEvents/GetAllEvents

    but i got a response :

    No umbraco document matches the url '/ra2/RAService.svc/RAEvents/GetAllEvents'.

    However when i run the following service on the browser, they indicated that the service has been created.

                   https://{ipaddress}/ra2/RAService.svc

    I'm trying to create a custom wcf service to return json objects. Is this way not a possible way to use wcf service to return json with umbraco?

    Hi Melvin,

    You will need to add /ra2 to the reserved paths app setting in web config. This should allow you to get access to any urls that start /ra2 instead of Umbraco's routing engine intercepting it.

    Thanks,

    Nik

    Thank you Nik for your response.

    I have tried what you said and have added the following in my web config:

     <add key="umbracoReservedPaths" value="~/umbraco,~/install/,~/RAService.svc,~/ra2" />

    however i still got this error:

    Server Error in '/ra2' Application.

 The resource cannot be found.
