WCF The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive

Question

I am using a RestClient app to communicate with my WCF service .and I am getting the following exception

The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive.

This is the C# code I use

            string q = string.Format(@"xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx");
            WebClient client = new WebClient();
            string Url = string.Format("{0}/Get?queries={1}", BaseUrl,HttpUtility.UrlEncodeUnicode(q));
            client.Headers.Add(HttpRequestHeader.ContentType, "application/json");
            var result = client.DownloadString(Url);
            Console.WriteLine("======================output================================");
            Console.WriteLine(result);
            Console.WriteLine("===========================================");

Here is the error message

Here is my binding

<binding name="wsHttpEndpoint" >
                    <readerQuotas maxDepth="32" maxStringContentLength="2147483647" maxArrayLength="16384" maxBytesPerRead="2147483647" maxNameTableCharCount="2147483647" />
                    <security mode="Transport">
                        <transport clientCredentialType="Certificate" />
                        <message clientCredentialType="Certificate" />
                    </security>
                </binding>

And my endpoint behavior ,not that I set maxItemsInObjectGraph="2147483647"

<behavior name="MyEndpointBehavior">
                    <dataContractSerializer maxItemsInObjectGraph="2147483647" />
                    <clientCredentials>
                        <clientCertificate findValue="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" x509FindType="FindBySubjectName" storeLocation="LocalMachine" storeName="My" />
                        <serviceCertificate>
                            <authentication certificateValidationMode="None" revocationMode="NoCheck" />
                        </serviceCertificate>
                    </clientCredentials>
                </behavior>

Its common (generic) message.

You should use Trace Viewer Tool (SvcTraceViewer.exe) to find out server error
