You need to add this to your web.config file. I think the .svcinfo files are just used by VS, not really WCF. Do you have a <system.serviceModel> section in the web config?

The entries would end up looking like:

<system.serviceModel>
    <bindings>
      <wsHttpBinding>
        <binding name="NameOfMyBinding" maxReceivedMessageSize="8192000">
        </binding>
      </wsHttpBinding>
    </bindings>
    <services>
      <service behaviorConfiguration="ServiceTypeBehaviors" name="MyServiceBehavior">
        <endpoint address="" binding="wsHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="NameOfMyBinding"
          contract="IContractName" />
      </service>
    </services>
