I am using WCF REST RC2.

My service is defined like this:

   [WebGet(UriTemplate = "media/{*uri}")]
   [OperationContract]
   public Stream GetMedia(string uri)
   {
      ...
   }

My problem is that this matches "media/foo" and "media/foo/bar" but not "media/foo/bar.png"

As soon as I put an extension in the URL, it is not matched by the template and I get a "resource cannot be found" error.

Any ideas?

 Did you ever get a resolution on this issue?

I am having the same problem. I would like to include a file extension and once I do the webservice returns the same error you are describing here.

Here is my code

<OperationContract()> <WebGet(UriTemplate:=

"vi/{filename}?id={id}")> Function GetSomeKmz(ByVal filename As String, ByVal id As String) As System.IO.Stream

If I do not add a file extension it works fine:

http://localhost/Service.svc/vi/myfile?id=123

As soon as I add a file extension it does not work

http://localhost/Service.svc/vi/myfile.kmz?id=123

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Brian

 Sorry for the double post. It said it failed so I posted again.

I don't see  a way to delete my own posts so I guess it has to stay :(

 There is a behavior difference between VS Web Development server and IIS when it comes to matching extensions. Did you see if this works in IIS?
