WebException

[Stephen H.]

Hello,

I'm developing a ppc-application that consumes a webservice on my local
machine. For testing the service is the HelloWorld service and the app is
just a form with a button that calls the webmethod. The problem is that when
I call the method I instantly get a WebException with no further information.
The method can be called from IE and from a Windows.Forms app. How can I find
out the reason for the exception?

Regards
Stephen

Hi,

thanks for your answers. The IP Address is not the problem, it worked many
times before. The exception wouldn't just be a WebException without further
comments. I found a 'solution' to the problem myself: I changed on the ppc
Settings/Connections/My network card connects to:/work to .../The Internet.
The old setting worked before, now the new one works. If you can explain
this, feel free to do so.

Regards
S.

Hi Stephen
One more thing, you could try my sample on PocketMap.NET, which uses the
.NET CF, Winforms, webservices + MapPoint.NET, in that I actually mentioned
about this issue.
