Hi! I am having some nightmares on this:

    Exception message: Request format is unrecognized for URL unexpectedly ending in '/Method'.

In short I am calling a web service in Jquery. The web service is hosted on another application but on the same development machine only.

I try to google and found one possible is to add HttpPost and HttpGet on the web service config. I try it...

The weird thing is it only works on IE but not on Firefox. My FF version is 3.5. On Firebug I can trace my javascripts is calling the web service but returning a 500 Internel server error but with blank Response.

I hope anyone can help me. Thanks!

Please add following in your webservice web.config file. if HttpPost and HttpGet is not working, add all the protocols and try.

<webServices>
<protocols>
	<add name="HttpSoap"/>
	<add name="HttpPost"/>
	<add name="HttpGet"/> 
	<add name="HttpPostLocalhost"/>
      <!-- Documentation enables the documentation/test pages -->
	<add name="Documentation"/>
</protocols>

</webServices>

if it did not work, Please post your javascript method, which you are using to call web service.

Thanks.

Hope it will help.

Hi! Thank you for responding.

I have no luck on adding all protocols, here is my config:

<webServices>
			<protocols>
				<add name="AnyHttpSoap"/>				
				<add name="HttpGet"/>
				<add name="HttpPost"/>
				<add name="HttpPostLocalhost"/>
				<add name="HttpSoap"/>
				<add name="HttpSoap12"/>
				<add name="Documentation"/>
			</protocols>
		</webServices>

and here is my javascript:

$.ajax({
            type: "POST",
            url: "http://localhost/ServiceName/Service.asmx/ServiceMethod",
            data: {},
            contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
            dataType: "json",
            success: sendMessageSuccess
        });

Hope you can help.
