My webservice gives expected output when run in debugger in visual studio. I hosted my service in IIS 6.0. When I browse to http://mywebserver/Service1/Service1.svc, it shows the test page with link to t needs to ewsdl. But when I send a SOAP Request to the service I get error. As suggested I am copying headers from Fiddler. Please suggest what needs to be corrected, or if you need more information for troubleshooting. Thanks.
