Machine-Specific HttpWebResponse Timeout

问题

I have a very odd machine-specific issue. On some machines, the code below works, on others it freezes until a timeout exception is thrown on by GetResponse() call.

string url = "https://myserver/myimage.png";

System.Net.ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = ((sender, certificate, chain, sslPolicyErrors) =>
{
     return true;
});

HttpWebRequest req = (HttpWebRequest)HttpWebRequest.Create(url);
req.Method = "GET";
req.AllowAutoRedirect = false;

try
{
    using (HttpWebResponse resp = (HttpWebResponse)req.GetResponse())
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Success");
    }
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Error: " + ex.ToString());
}

Console.ReadKey();

I can't find any OS/configuration pattern between the machines that work and the ones that fail. This is a console application running with an administrator user.

The only particular thing about this is that the URL being accessed is an image running into a test server that is using a self-issued SSL certificate, so it needed the workaround using ServerCertificateValidationCallback displayed in the code above.

Other URLs I tested worked properly.

Can anyone help me identify possible causes for this issue and workarounds?

回答1:

As usual, it's quite simple once you figure it out: The machines where the problem was not present had .Net Framework 4.5 installed.

This is very likely due to the fact that 4.5 is an in-place update for 4.0, and includes several bugfixes to the core libraries.

I've had the same issue on Win7 , VS2010 and it was solved by windows update - update to .NET 4.5.1
Another thing worth mentioning that it happens only in specific servers as well , not only specific clients.
(i would post as comment but not enough ratings)
Did anyone solve this without using windows update ?
