I have a .NET Core xUnit project. I'm trying to call a WCF service from it but get the following exception:

System.InvalidOperationException occurred
  HResult=0x80131509
  Message=An error occurred while loading attribute 'ServiceContractAttribute' on type 'IMyContract'.  Please see InnerException for more details.

Inner Exception 1:
FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.ServiceModel, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'. The system cannot find the file specified.

It works with a Framework 4.7 project with the same Nuget Package System.ServiceModel.Http.4.3.0.

I had same issue, i had to add .asmx web service into my class library asp.net core project, i tried to add reference directly by add connected service option but i wan unable to see any config file and lots of references errors also, below are the steps by which i solve my problem.

1-Create library project name Service Mapping 2-Create folder Web References and then create inside folder ClientHotel 3-Open terminal in visual studio from view ---> terminal --- command prompt. 4-Integrate asmx service by command svcutil http://abctest.asmx (.asmx URL) inside inside ClientHotel folder.

5-it will create .cs class and output.config file with references in it. 6-Now i had errors of references like the type or namespace servicecontractattribute does not exist in namespace System.ServiceModel etc.

7-Install Package System.ServiceModel.Primitives Then all references errors will be gone.

That is how i was able to add .asmx service to my class library project.
