Re: The underlying connection was closed

Environment:
c#, Framwork 2.0, Win2003 server, IIS 6.0, Copy deployment (uncompiled
source code deployed to server)

I have written a web service that calls another web service. The ws I am
calling is third party, but written in .net (unknown framework version).
I am calling the 3rd party ws over https.
When my ws is called without ssl everything works great. However, when my
client is calling my ws using https, I get the following error:

The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a
receive.
System.Net.WebResponse GetWebResponse(System.Net.WebRequest)
...

I won't post the entire stack trace for size reasons.
The error will only pop up after a number of days of everything working
just fine. No changes on the server or the source code.

I have seen a number of 'solutions' to this problem, but they all apply to
1.0 and 1.1 frameworks.

What did those solutions say was the cause of the problem?

Does anyone know why this is happening and what I can do about it in 2.0?

I don't know for sure what's happening, but does your web server have SSL
configured?
