    Hi,

    I have started making use of WCF Actions as per http://blogs.msdn.com/b/odatateam/archive/2012/04/10/actions-in-wcf-data-services-part-1-service-author-code.aspx.

    Everything works fine on IIS Express, but once deployed to IIS, I receive 404 errors from any service action. All other WCF interactions are working fine, with the exception of the Actions. It's as though IIS can't understand the route, or WCF is mistaking the service action for a relation. The service metadata does report the service action end point correctly however.

    We are using WCF 5.6.3 and EF6.

    Anyone encountered this before?

    Hello dayneo,

    >>Everything works fine on IIS Express, but once deployed to IIS, I receive 404 errors from any service action

    From your description, your service should be ok since it works on the IIS express, as far as I know, a 404 error represents your request page is not found on server. In your case, it seems to be that the IIS does not understand such a request, I think you might need to configure the IIS to let it recognize, for this, you could ask issues related IIS configuration on IIS forum: http://forums.iis.net/.

    Regards.

    Thanks. I will try repost there.

    FYI, in the mean time I have modified all Actions as WebInvoke methods instead.
