webrequest

I'm making a simple REST client to use in my C# applications. In .net on Windows It works great with http:// and https:// connections. In mono 2.6.7 (Also tested with 2.8 with the same results) on Ubuntu 10.10 only http:// works. https:// connections throw up this exception on the request.GetResponse() method: Unhandled Exception: System.Net.WebException: Error getting response stream (Write: The authentication or decryption has failed.): SendFailure ---> System.IO.IOException: The authentication or decryption has failed. ---> Mono.Security.Protocol.Tls.TlsException: Invalid certificate

I am having some trouble creating a BitmapImage from a MemoryStream from png and gif bytes obtained from a web request. The bytes seem to be downloaded fine and the BitmapImage object is created without issue however the image is not actually rendering on my UI. The problem only occurs when the downloaded image is of type png or gif (works fine for jpeg). Here is code that demonstrates the problem: var webResponse = webRequest.GetResponse(); var stream = webResponse.GetResponseStream(); if (stream.CanRead) { Byte[] buffer = new Byte[webResponse.ContentLength]; stream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer

When I try to add a HTTP header key/value pair on a WebRequest object, I get the following exception: This header must be modified using the appropriate property I've tried adding new values to the Headers collection by using the Add() method but I still get the same exception. webRequest.Headers.Add(HttpRequestHeader.Referer, "http://stackoverflow.com"); I can get around this by casting the WebRequest object to a HttpWebRequest and setting the properties such as httpWebReq.Referer ="http://stackoverflow.com" , but this only works for a handful of headers that are exposed via properties. I'd

when i do a GET with WebRequest.Create(" http://abc/test .") i get 404 because according to fiddler the trailing dot gets stripped away by .NET and the web server needs the dot. how can i prevent that or work around it. any workaround is appreciated! Workaround in workaround tab at the official bug report: https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/386695/system-uri-incorrectly-strips-trailing-dots?wa=wsignin1.0#tabs .. seems to be valid. Basically, run this code to reset a static flag in .NET before working with System.Uri: MethodInfo getSyntax = typeof(UriParser).GetMethod(

I'm trying to go through an authentication request that mimics the "basic auth request" we're used to seeing when setting up IIS for this behavior. The URL is: https://telematicoprova.agenziadogane.it/TelematicoServiziDiUtilitaWeb/ServiziDiUtilitaAutServlet?UC=22&SC=1&ST=2 (warning: https!) This server is running under UNIX and Java as application server. This is the code I use to connect to this server: CookieContainer myContainer = new CookieContainer(); HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("https://telematicoprova.agenziadogane.it/TelematicoServiziDiUtilitaWeb
