Webrequest and Timeout

Hello!

I have a problem with the Webrequest. I've search everywhere to find an
answer but it seems that no one has the the problem before. So i hope
somebody can help me here!

Following Code:
_______________ _______________ ___________
WebRequest wrq = WebRequest.Crea te(URL);
WebResponse wrs = wrq.GetResponse ();
Stream strm = wrs.GetResponse Stream();
StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(st rm, Encoding.ASCII) ;
string line = sr.ReadLine();

while (line != null)
{
// here I do what i need with the line
line = sr.ReadLine();
}
_______________ _______________ ____________

It works ONE TIME and then i get always a timeout. I tried everything, first
request is no problem.. The URL is not the problem, because it works with
all only one time...
I also tried another method for the request, but with the same problem:
_______________ _______________ ____________
WebClient client = new WebClient();
Stream data = client.OpenRead (URL);
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(da ta);
string line = "";
line = reader.ReadLine ();

while( line != null)
{
// here I do what i need with the line
line = reader.ReadLine ();
}
_______________ _______________ _____________

Example:

I invoke the method with::

GetWebPage(URL) ;
GetWebPage(URL2 );

Then I get just the information from URL. I get a timeout for URL2!
When i change them:

GetWebPage(URL2 );
GetWebPage(URL) ;

Then I get just the information from URL2. I get a timeout for URL!
Thank you for any help!

You should close/dispose the StreamReader when you've finished with it,
and call Dispose on the WebResponse. You can use "using" statements to
help with both of these.

Hi, I'm running the following code to read a URL into a string. When the url is offline, it times out after about 10 seconds regardless of what I set myRequest.Timeout to. Any suggestions? WebRequest myRequest = WebRequest.Create (inURL); WebResponse myResponse = myRequest.GetResponse();

I've got to use the http protocol to communicate with another machine as part of a Web Service using HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse. As such, timing is important. When I create the HttpWebRequest as shown in the help example: Dim myReq As HttpWebRequest = _ WebRequest.Create("http://www.contoso.com/") does this actually go out and try and establish some sort of connection with the remote site? If so, I'll need to spin this off in...

I appreciate anyone's insight on this as I am new to web programming with .NET. I have a simple method which I use to send various HTTP requests to a web server (snippet below). On the first several invocations, the debugger will actually stop in the catch block. However, after a number of invocations (variant) the program just hangs on waiting for the GetResponse(). I would expect the timeout/Webexception to occur. In monitoring...

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.
