I have written a PocketPC application that connects to a web service, and
when im connected via the cable or via wireless then it pulls back the data
correctly.
However when connected to GPRS, i get the following error
"Server found request content type to be 'text/html', but expected 'text/xml'"
Does anyone know why this is happening?
Someone previously suggested that its because it is returning too much data,
but i have tested it just returning one 4 character string, and it still
didnt work.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated!!

Usually this sort of error comes when there some exception occured. I would
suggest you to debug ur web service using some simulator. Lets see below error
An unhandled exception of type 'System.Invalid OperationExcept ion' occurred
in system.web.serv ices.dll Additional information: Client found response
content type of 'text/html', but expected 'text/xml'
I would suggest you to open tracing on web application and see results. This
will give you an insight that what exactly is going on. Further more, ASP.Net
sometimes tries to return errors occuring in web methods as HTML page rather
than soap exception.
Thsi error occured in webservice but on ur pocket pc it will appear as
expected 'text/xml' error.

ok that makes sense, however the error only happens when doing it over GPRS,
so how can i simulate that?

Do you want to check the request to see what's sent? You can use the
TraceExtension as given here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de.../en-us/cpref/h

I have had a little play around, and ive found that with Windows
Authentication switched on, it doesnt work via GPRS, if i turn Win
Authentication off, then it works fine.
So does Windows Authentication wrap it in larger packets or something that
could be causing the problems?
