I want to enable "Basic" Authentication to my service. Disabled anonymous and windows Auth. And enabled "basicAuthentication" in applicationhost.config, but im not able access the service. Getting below error.

I am trying to create a service which will accept a few parameters and save the data to my database.
Using the above configuration if i navigate to http://localhost:12345/Service1.svc/InsertData/name/surname i get the error "Method Not Found"
If i do the same POST method and run it in Fiddler then it saves to the database successfully.
I then used this link http://blogs.msdn.com/b/carlosfigueira/archive/2012/03/26/mixing-add-service-reference-and-wcf-web-http-a-k-a-rest-endpoint-does-not-work.aspx as a guide but i think ive used as much info in order to accomplish what i think i need (i could be wrong).
Should i be doing something different?

Using the above configuration if i navigate to
http://localhost:12345/Service1.svc/InsertData/name/surname i get the
error "Method Not Found"
When you do this trough your browser you are actually doing a GET request, which your method does not support.
When you do it trough Fiddler you issue a POST.
You can do a POST using the WebRequest class or HttpRequest trough your code.

Upload Image from iOS to WCF, error 415(unsupported media)

I'm trying to upload a photo taken by the iphone to the WCF RESTful server, i've looked all over the web for examples and other answers around the issue, but i can't give with the solution.
The app is written in iOS6, and i'm using AFNetworking 2.0 to upload the image. As in the simulator the camera doesn't work, i've been trying with a library photo. I think the problem is in format differences, WCF is requesting for a Stream parameter, and i don't know how AFNetworking is sending the info...
Here is the WCF code:
[WebInvoke(Method = "POST", UriTemplate = "FileUpload")]
public void FileUpload(Stream stream)
{
try
{
byte[] buffer = new byte[10000];
stream.Read(buffer, 0, 10000);
FileStream f = new FileStream("C:\\temp\\sample.jpg", FileMode.OpenOrCreate);
f.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
f.Close();
stream.Close();
System.Console.WriteLine("Recieved the image on server");
}
catch (Exception e)
{
System.Console.WriteLine("ERROR: " + e.ToString());
}
}
iOS code:
AFHTTPRequestOperationManager *manager = [AFHTTPRequestOperationManager manager];
NSDictionary *parameters = #{#"foo": #"bar"};
NSURL *filePath = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:#"Users/juan/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/6.1/Media/DCIM/100APPLE/IMG_0001.JPG"];
[manager POST:#"http://192.168.2.3:8732/wave/FileUpload" parameters:parameters constructingBodyWithBlock:^(id<AFMultipartFormData> formData) {
[formData appendPartWithFileURL:filePath name:#"image" error:nil];
} success:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, id responseObject) {
NSLog(#"Success: %#", responseObject);
} failure:^(AFHTTPRequestOperation *operation, NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", error);
}];
Testing the web service in fiddler, it throws the same error by sending an image, 415 unsupported media.
I let the app.config of the server:
<configuration>
<system.web>
<httpRuntime maxRequestLength="2097151"
useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="true"
executionTimeout="14400" />
</system.web>
<system.serviceModel>

List method says "No Data Received" (even though it does receive) in WCF Service Application in Visual Studio 10

I've made a WCF Service Application in Visual Studio 2010. Every method works except this one:
public List<Friend> SendFriendList(int id)
{
FyfDataContext db = new FyfDataContext();
List<Friend> friends = db.Friends.Where(P => P.PK_ID == id).ToList();
return friends;
}
It actually receives the data perfectly, but doesn't show it, when I test it in Google Chrome.
Here's the twist: Before this problem, I made the entire WCF Service App in Visual Studio 2012. And it worked perfectly there - but due to some other problems I had to go back to 2010.
Snippet of my IService.cs:
public interface IService2
{
[OperationContract]
[WebGet(UriTemplate = "/Friendlist?id={id}", RequestFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json, ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)]
List<Friend> SendFriendList(int id);
[OperationContract]
[WebGet(UriTemplate = "/Friendloc?id={id}", RequestFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json, ResponseFormat = WebMessageFormat.Json)]
Friendloc SendFriendLoc(int id);
}
The Friendloc method works - but like all the other methods, it returns an object, and not a list.
I suspect that the problem is something with the web.config - but I just can't find out what.
I do realize that VS12 made a 4.5 Framework, and VS10 made a 4.0.
Here's the Visual Studio 2010 Web.config:

I've tried copying some of the elements from VS12 version to my VS10; such as aspNetCompatibilityEnabled to "true" and putting directoryBrowse in etc. But without luck.
I'm sorry if it's something extremely simple that I'm missing. This is my first WCF Service. Any help is much appreciated!

Don't quite know why this works, and the other method doesn't.
Made a DataContract called Userlist with (almost) the same attributes (just tested it with ID).
Definitely not as nice code, but it works. Still curious about the other problem though.
public List<Userlist> Friendlist(int id)
{
int i = 0;
FyfDataContext db = new FyfDataContext();
List<Friend> friends = db.Friends.Where(P => P.PK_ID == id).ToList();
List<Userlist> userlist = new List<Userlist>();
while (i < friends.Count)
{
Userlist u = new Userlist();
u.id = Convert.ToInt32(friends[i].FK_ID);
userlist.Add(u);
i++;
}
return userlist;
}

WCF endpoint not found

I'm following a tutorial in a book to implement push notifications for Windows Phone. This is the markup of the service:
<%# ServiceHost Language="C#" Debug="true" Service="Service.PushService" CodeBehind="PushService.svc.cs" Factory="System.ServiceModel.Activation.WebServiceHostFactory" %>
As you see, a factory is added, although I don't really understand what it's for. When running the service, I get a "endpoint not found" error. When I remove the factory from the markup, the error disappears, but I get an empty page.
Any idea what could cause this error or how to fix it? If you need more code, please tell me.
Thanks

You are missing the endpoint configuration in your web.config.
Add this to your web.config:
<system.serviceModel>
<services>
<service name="Service.PushService">
<endpoint address="" binding="basicHttpsBinding"
contract="Service.IPushService" />
</service>
</services>
</system.serviceModel>

For those who absently implement the method in Service.svc that its definition is absent in IService causes the same exception.
This is forgotten
[OperationContract]
string CheckHMAC(string hMac);
But implemented
[WebInvoke(Method = "GET", UriTemplate = "/CheckHMAC/{hMac}")]
public string CheckHMAC(string hMac)
{//}
