I am having some difficulties with OWIN in a ASP.NET WebApi2 setting. The first request after a restart results in the exception:
[ObjectDisposedException: Cannot access a disposed object. Object name: 'System.Net.Http.HttpMessageInvoker'.] System.Net.Http.HttpMessageInvoker.CheckDisposed() +327456 System.Net.Http.HttpMessageInvoker.SendAsync(HttpRequestMessage request, CancellationToken cancellationToken) +24 System.Web.Http.Owin.<InvokeCore>d__0.MoveNext() +501 System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.ThrowForNonSuccess(Task task) +99 System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.HandleNonSuccessAndDebuggerNotification(Task task) +58 Microsoft.Owin.Host.SystemWeb.IntegratedPipeline.<RunApp>d__5.MoveNext() +187 System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.ThrowForNonSuccess(Task task) +99 System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.HandleNonSuccessAndDebuggerNotification(Task task) +58 Microsoft.Owin.Host.SystemWeb.IntegratedPipeline.<DoFinalWork>d__2.MoveNext() +185 Microsoft.Owin.Host.SystemWeb.IntegratedPipeline.StageAsyncResult.End(IAsyncResult ar) +69 Microsoft.Owin.Host.SystemWeb.IntegratedPipeline.IntegratedPipelineContext.EndFinalWork(IAsyncResult ar) +64 System.Web.AsyncEventExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute() +483 System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously) +157I believe the problem is caused by a long running task when its hitting the EF DbContext for the first time. All in all the first request is around 4-6000ms. After this first request there are no more exceptions.
I have reproduced the issue in a simplified form with a webapi project and the following OWIN startup (and no global.asax):
public class Startup
{
public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app) {
var config = new HttpConfiguration();
config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();
// ---- simulate long running initialization code -------
Thread.Sleep(3000);
// ------------------------------------------------------
app.UseWebApi(config);
}
}
I add a controller:
[Route("api/test/number")]
public class TestController : ApiController
{
public object Get() {
return 42;
}
}
When I request this the first request results in the exception.
