I created a REST web service that works with the Visual Studios WCF test client. You can call it using the site that is next to it, and uses the proxy class that was created using svcutil.
I also see that the service exists when I view the .svc file. (http: //localhost/service1.svc) The message "You have created a service" appears in it. web pages.
HOWEVER
When I try to call a function inside the service, (http: //localhost/service.svc/firstName/lastName), it returns an 400 error code.
Recently, I had a separate error that I could not understand, so I found a tutorial on the VERY basic web service " http://blog.weareon.net/how-to-create-and-consume-rest-web-service-using -wcf / "that one stopped the previous error, but still has a 400 error when trying to call a function.
My .config file was cut into bare bones to try and get it to work before I get too far.

In my research, I found things like proxy settings in the browser, return types, size problems, but so far no one has worked.
If you have any ideas, please let me know. Thanks in advance.
EDIT:
this is the XML from the log file, thanks for the comments to let me know that this exists :)

Not yet studied it, thought that I would send it at the same time
