I have the following code :
String url = // a valid url
String requestXml = File.ReadAllText(filePath);//opens file , reads all text and closes it
byte[] bytes = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(requestXml);
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
request.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("DEFAULT\\Admin", "Admin");
request.ContentType = "application/xml";
request.ContentLength = bytes.Length;
request.Method = "POST";
request.KeepAlive = false;
Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream();
requestStream.Write(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);
requestStream.Close();
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
Stream responseStream = response.GetResponseStream();
return new StreamReader(responseStream).ReadToEnd();
During run-time, I'm getting the following exception while trying to read the HTTPWebResponse
:
System.Net.WebException: The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive.
