PONameResolutionFailure in Mono but not .NET
text
Body
copied!<p>I am making HTTPS POST requests (same problem with HTTP) using C#</p> <pre><code>byte[] byteArray = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("var1=blah&var2=hah"); HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)(WebRequest.Create("https://www.example.com")); request.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials; request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"; request.ContentLength = byteArray.Length; request.Method = "POST"; Stream dataStream = request.GetRequestStream(); dataStream.Write(byteArray, 0, byteArray.Length); dataStream.Close(); WebResponse response = request.GetResponse(); </code></pre> <p>The preceding code works great in both .NET and Mono when I don't have to go through a proxy. When I have to use a proxy, then it works when run on .NET but in Mono fails with the following</p> <pre><code>WebException: Error: NameResolutionFailure at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.EndGetRequestStream (IAsyncResult asyncResult) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetRequestStream () [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 </code></pre> <p>Also, running in a browser with the same proxy configuration works fine. Any reason why Mono would throw a NameResolutionFailure while .NET does not? </p> <p>There was a similar stackoverflow question that had a work around of using the direct ip when creating the request and then adding the domain to the request.Host. However, the proxy I have to go through rejects this kind of request. Help!</p> <p>Operating System is Windows 7, Mono version is 2.6.5 </p>
