Programmer Question

I am trying to make a WCF service over basicHttpBinding to be used over https. Here's my web.config:

  <service behaviorConfiguration="MyServices.PingResultServiceBehavior"
   name="MyServices.PingResultService">
    <endpoint address="" binding="basicHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="defaultBasicHttpBinding"
     contract="MyServices.IPingResultService">
      <identity>
        <dns value="localhost" />
      </identity>
    </endpoint>
    <endpoint address="mex" binding="mexHttpBinding" contract="IMetadataExchange" />
  </service>

...

<bindings>
  <basicHttpBinding>
    <binding name="defaultBasicHttpBinding">
      <security mode="Transport">
        <transport clientCredentialType="None"/>
      </security>
    </binding>
  </basicHttpBinding>
</bindings>

...

I am connecting using WCFStorm which is able to retrieve all the meta data properly, but when I call the actual method I get:

The provided URI scheme 'https' is invalid; expected 'http'.
Parameter name: via

Any ideas?
