Cerbuino hangs with httpwebrequest

d_ray · February 14, 2013, 6:49pm

Hi,

I have a function that sends some data to a webserver.

The function works well when the server is online. But when the server is offline for some reason the controller hangs.
I hade the same problem with the panda II
Using .net 4.2

try catch doesn’t work.

the problem starts in line
Stream dataStream = request.GetRequestStream();

After a while I get an out of memory.Failed allocation for 514 blocks, 6168 bytes

request.timeout = x; doesn’t help
request.readwrite = x; doesn’t help

I used also some examples from codeshare but they have all the same result.


                // Create a request using a URL that can receive a post. 
                WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create(_ClubInterfacePath);
                // Set the Method property of the request to POST.
                request.Method = "POST";
                // Create POST data and convert it to a byte array.
                string postData = "<clubrequest token=\"" + _Token + "\" " + Xml + " />"; ;
                byte[] byteArray = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(postData);
                // Set the ContentType property of the WebRequest.
                request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
                // Set the ContentLength property of the WebRequest.
                request.ContentLength = byteArray.Length;
                // Get the request stream.
                Stream dataStream = request.GetRequestStream();
                // Write the data to the request stream.
                dataStream.Write(byteArray, 0, byteArray.Length);
                // Close the Stream object.
                dataStream.Close();
                // Get the response.
                WebResponse response = request.GetResponse();
                // Display the status.
                Debug.Print(((HttpWebResponse)response).StatusDescription);
                // Get the stream containing content returned by the server.
                dataStream = response.GetResponseStream();
                // Open the stream using a StreamReader for easy access.
                StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(dataStream);
                // Read the content.
                string responseFromServer = reader.ReadToEnd();
                // Display the content.


                // Clean up the streams.
                reader.Close();
                dataStream.Close();
                response.Close();

                return responseFromServer;

@ d-ray -

Maybe the size of the stream exceed your memory available at the same moment. What does the request file contains ?

d_ray · February 15, 2013, 6:44am

@ andre.m - ReadWriteTimeout exists in 4.1 not in 4.2

d_ray · February 15, 2013, 6:47am

@ LouisCpro -
Hi thanks for the repy.

It is Ok when the webserver is online.
the request is only a string from ±50 char

Duke_Nukem · February 15, 2013, 8:47am

which socket do you have your ENC28 connected to, if its 5, try moving it to 6 if you can and give it a go and see if that makes a difference.

d_ray · February 17, 2013, 5:54am

Hi,
I tested with the cerb40 (socket 6 connections) and have the same problem.

@ andre.m where can i create a ticket @ netmf?
