500 Internal Server Error

I get the following error when I send a HTTPWebRequest.

System.Net.WebE xception: The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal
Server Error. at System.Net.Http WebRequest.Chec kFinalStatus() at
System.Net.Http WebRequest.GetR esponse()

Below is the code that I wrote.
-------------------------------------

Dim xmlDOM As New XmlDocument

xmlDOM.Load("C:/Subs_Req.xml")

Dim strxml As String = xmlDOM.OuterXml
Dim myxml As String = "xml=" & strxml
Dim data() As Byte = System.Text.Enc oding.UTF8.GetB ytes(myxml.ToSt ring())
Dim xml As String = System.Web.Http Utility.UrlEnco de(myxml)
Dim myURL As String= "https://xxxxxx.com:443/xxxx".ToString
Dim myRequest As HttpWebRequest = CType(WebReques t.Create(myURL) ,
HttpWebRequest)

myRequest.Metho d = "POST"
myRequest.Conte ntType = "applicatio n/x-www-form-urlencoded"
myRequest.Conte ntLength = data.Length
Dim NewStream As Stream = myRequest.GetRe questStream()

NewStream.Write (data, 0, data.Length)
NewStream.Close ()
Dim myResponse As HttpWebResponse
myResponse = CType(myRequest .GetResponse(), HttpWebResponse )

Dim sr As StreamReader = New StreamReader (myResponse.Get ResponseStream( ))
Dim response As String = sr.ReadToEnd()
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Please advise.

Thanks.

Hi Beginner,

It seems that the post to the page on the remote server caused a 500
Server Error, meaning that an exception occured. Re-check if you are
posting the correct data, otherwise the receiving page is not programmed
correctly and needs to be corrected.

Thanks for the response.

When I post the same information to a local server it just works fine. But
not to this. Mine is a simple asp.net app. The receiving page is also fine.
Do you think the external url being https could cause this problem?

Hi Beginner,

A starting point might be to investigate what the actual exception is
that caused the 500 internal server error. If it's a asp.net app you can
specify in the web.config to show the exact exception to remote hosts.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
