Tried running a service on GoGrid and got the following error:

HTTP could not register URL http://+:8000/Update.asp/. Your process does not have access rights to this namespace (see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=70353 for details).

With a little help from social MSDN I realized that I needed to run visual studio as admin in order to test my service so it could listen to a uri.

So as not to have to do this every time create a shortcut to visual studio; rt click on it choos properties; then the Advanced button; then check the run as administrator ; OK; OK;

Then I got

HTTP could not register URL http://+:8000/Update.asp/. Your process does not have access rights to this namespace (see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=70353 for details).

Which MS indicates is a firewall issue; which it is not.

Created a command prompt shortcut as above.

Running the following got me going.

netsh http add urlacl url=http://+:8000/ user=DOMAIN\UserName

Yay!
