Introduction  I have encountered such problem when was testing my fist network app   I created  Client and Server then I ran client and suddenly exception was thrown  indeed it blocks the connection  because the port is not being listened    Error  My port was not listened by the server  because server was down   Solution  Run the Server first  so the port will be listened by server and once client tries to connect the server will handle that

I got a similar error message like TCP error code 10061  No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it in my current project  I find this 10061 error code cannot distinguish the case that the service endpoint is not started and the case that it is blocked by the firewall  Often  the firewall can be switched off  but the problem is still there   You can test your code in the below two ways    Insert code to get time A that service is started and time B that client sends the request to the server  If B is earlier than A  it can cause this problem  Change your server port to another port that is also available in the system  You will find the same error code reported    Above is my fix  It works on my machine  I hope it helps

If you use WCF storm  can you even log-in to the WCF service endpoint  If not  and you are hosting it in a Windows service  you probably forgot to register that namespace  It s not very well advertised that this step is required  and it is actually annoying to do   I use this tool to do this  it automates all those cumbersome steps

User · Answer

Actively refused it  means that the host sent a reset instead of an ack when you tried to connect  It is therefore not a problem in your code   Either there is a firewall blocking the connection or the process that is hosting the service is not listening on that port  This may be because it is not running at all or because it is listening on a different port   Once you start the process hosting your service  try netstat -anb  requires admin privileges  to verify that it is running and listening on the expected port   update  On Linux you may need to do netstat -anp instead
