I'm getting error on http://xyz.com/service1.svc as :

Server Error in '/' Application.

Runtime Error

Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

What I missed in setup on the server???

The error simply states that there is a problem. But in order to see the reason you should either try the service on the server using browser locally or you can modify the web.config to allow to show the error. In order to do that add the following to the web.config:

XML

<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <customErrors mode="Off"/>
    </system.web>
</configuration>
