Answer 2

Are you sure, that your're debugging the service with an elevated account? This error is quite common if you're trying to host a service on a non-default port using a standard user.

You could try to register that port to that specific user. Open an elevated command prompt and execute the follwing command:

add urlacl url=http://localhost:61241/TaxiRiderService user=YOURDOMAIN\youruser
