Re: Please help! HTTP protocol violation error using HttpWebRequest

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Thus wrote Tom,

Hello all:

I have a method that does a POST to a secured website using
HttpWebRequest. It worked when logging in the site, but it failed with
an HTTP prococol violation error when it is used to retrieve a report.

Error: The underlying connection was closed: The server committed an
HTTP protocol violation.

I have tried to the set useUnsafeHeaderParsing to true in the app
config file, but it still does not work.

<system.net>
<settings>
<httpWebRequest useUnsafeHeaderParsing="true" />
</settings>
</system.net>
Please tell me what I did wrong in the following code?

Nothing -- it's a *server side* error.

I'm not sure whether unsafeHeaderParsing really allows all rubbish to be accepted as HTTP. I'd rather try to get the server side fixed.

Cheers,
