I'm trying to set a near-infinite timeout value on a WebRequest, considering that the HTTP-based API which I'm querying already graciously handles timeouts by sending back an XML document that declares a timeout. For some reason though, the following code still throws an exception:

I'm not sure if this is a VB.NET error or SQL Server. But I get the above error with following stack trace:

I'm having a ridiculous time trying to get an SMS API working (ZeepMobile, if you're interested) with .NET... I've been around .NET for a few years, but with all this social networking and API stuff, I need to get into the HttpWebRequest a bit. I'm new at it, but not completely new; I was able to hook up my site to Twitter without too much fuss (ie, I was able to modify someone's code to work for me).
Anyways, the way their API works is to send an SMS message, you send them a POST and they respond back to you. I can send it just fine, but every time I do, rather than echo back something helpful to figure out what the error is, I get the Yellow Error Page Of Death (YEPOD) saying something to the effect of "The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request." This occurs on my line:
'...creation of httpwebrequest here...'
Dim myWebResponse As WebResponse
myWebResponse = request.GetResponse() '<--- error line
Is there any way to simply receive the error from the server rather than have the webserver throw an exception and give me the YEPOD?
EDIT: Here's my whole code block:
Public Shared Function SendTextMessage(ByVal username As String, _
ByVal txt As String) As String
Dim content As String = "user_id=" + _
username + "&body=" + Current.Server.UrlEncode(txt)

I'm currently working on making a database driven app without using SQL and instead using a simplistic web directory to store information.Unfortunately after just beginning I hit a rock wall on creating a login screen. As it works right now, every user has a directory and within that directory is file called "access" which has a password. While I'm aware that's it not secure, that's later to come, but right now I'd just like it to work. But the program uses WebRequest to see whether or not there is a directory under the given username, if there is then the username is considered valid and it moves on to check the password- where I start to have trouble. The password verification uses WebRequest and WebResponse as well, using StreamReader to read the access file. At the moment, the password checker only works once in a single program instance. Otherwise trying to check another login will cause the program to hang or freeze when declaring the WebResponse variable (resp).
This is the password verification code (with URL's removed):
Dim Username As String = My.Settings.usrUsername'The function is in a BackgroundWorker so I use My.Settings to communicate with the UI.
Dim Password As String
Dim usrPassword As String = My.Settings.usrPassword
[code]....
I tried using suggestions from other posts for this and still no resolution. When sending a POST request, at times it will just begin to freeze and stall. I set up my code as follows and now basically if I cannot figure out why it is freezing, then itneeds to timeout, handle the exception and restart the function.

I'm trying to download a file using ftp and then using a streamreader to read it and write it to a text file. The problem is, when I download the file and read it, either it did not get all the data or it stops writing the data to the local file and doesnt produce any error, it just sits there. I've tried it with many different files from the ftp site and this always happens.

Attached is a file that creates a 3D cube, I did not make this but found it here at this site.Playing around with it I found out how to, on pressing of any key change the distance of the camera, thus changing the shade of the cube.So if you held a key down it got darker and darker.I want this to happen, but on a timer. So i created a timer, set the interval to 1 and did the same exact code. Set the timer to true, and nothing happens. Ever. I tried doing messagebox.show to show me a message every tick, and that didn't work either. So I went and broke the timer class?
[Code]...
Now i made a new application file, because I use timers all the time and it works. I copy pasted the code, and added the directx stuff, and it ..breaks my timer to do nothing at all ever.. Even if it is unrelated to my cube.
I am running an AxWebBrowser with a proxy server connection to reach the internet. However, after a navigation error event, the application ignores all further navigate commands. When not connecting through a proxy, the code works fine. Here's the main

My problem is when the file I am reading contains an accented character the streamreader simply ignores this character. So if the line I read in was a 10 bytes line, it now only writes back out a 9 byte line. This is a huge issue as the file I am working with has to be a fixed length. I know there is some encoding that can be done to make this work, but know very little about it. [Code]

I was unhappy with the kerning in one of the installed fonts on my system, so I re-defined the kerning in a font editor and installed the revised font (under a new name) on my system. When I use the new font in Microsoft Word or Adobe Photoshop, my new kerning works fine - but when I use Drawstring in a VB program, although the new font is used, the kerning instructions are ignored.Does anyone know if this a feature of the Graphics.Drawstring method, or am I failing to set a switch somewhere? If it's a feature, is there another method which kerns correctly?

We're converting a Classic ASP site to an ASP.NET site. One function was to upload a 'template' of data in CSV format for importing into the database. There were several different record types in there (the first field always indentifies the type of data).The task was to get the CSV into a DataTable so it could be validated (new project is to have MUCH better validation rules)
The code seemed pretty straightforward - watered down (taking out comments, Try/Catch, etc) it is as follows:
Dim da As New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter
Dim cn As New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & strDirectory & ";" & "Extended Properties=""Text;HDR=No;FMT=Delimited;""")
[code]....
The DataTable (dtData) is populated, but only starting with the second line of the CSV file DESPITE the fact that "HDR=No" is in the connection string.
The application sits on a virtual environment and when I remote in and run the application, it connects to the remote database. However, when I remote in with a service account and double click the same .exe, it tries to connect to the local host database and ignores the app.config. The code is the same, only the login name I use is different. The login I use is part of the local admin group. Any ideas?

So I moved the code to an ASP.Net web app, which is impersonating a service account through the Impersonate section of web.config. The account I am impersonating does not have admin rights on any of the workstations so I put in a username/password into the constructor for the computer entry like so:
Dim deComputer As New DirectoryEntry("WinNT://" + Computername + ",computer", username, password).The username is that of a domain account which has local admin rights on every workstation. If I look at the Username property of the resulting deComputer object I can see that the username matches what I entered.Also if I enter in an invalid password it throws an error, so it is authenticating in some fashion.
However if I now try and add or remove a user from a remote workstation I get a general access denied error. If I add the service account that ASP.Net is using as a local admin on that workstation it will add and remove no problem.So next I tried using the LogonAPI (advapi32.dll ->LogonUser call) to login as the user account that is a local admin on all workstations, impersonated the resulting WindowsIdentitiy and tried running just the original deComputer instantiation. When I do this every property, excepty Path, returns an OLE exception..

I want to include an average in a column where the average ignores zero values in a report cell where the column may have
17
19
0
[code].....
I want 16, not 11 so (17 + 19 + 12 + 13 + 19) / 5 not (17 + 19 + 0 + 0 + 12 + 13 + 19) / 7 Something like this if it would work.
=SUM(Fields!fieldname.Value) / Count(iif(Fields!count_cycle_per_hour.Value >= 0,Fields!fieldname.Value,0))
Essentially just average everything in the column NOT a zero?
I'm trying to parse csv file with VB.NET.csv files contains value like 0,"1,2,3",4 which splits in 5 instead of 3. There are many examples with other languages in Stockoverflow but I can't implement it in VB.NET.Here is my code so far but it doesn't work...

View 5 RepliesAs the title says I have a form with many databound textboxes. some of these boxes have data in them and some are empty. I need to add them altogether, so far all of the conversion methods I have tried err out when they run into an empty string, except Val, but then Val won't handle the string with a $ in it. I've tried decimal.parse which handles the $ but not the empty string. So I seem to be in circle that I can't get out of.

After roughly 250 iterations of about 5-6 WebRequest per iteration, the app hangs and starts hitting the WebException "The remote name could not be resolved: 'hostnamehere' ". WebPages also don't load through my browser when this happens, I have to close the app for my internet to work again. This app is multithreaded and I was testing with 100 threads (in a threadpool, MaxThreadCount set to 20, addressof the sub which performs the WebRequests). A test with 20 threads yielded identical results - Same WebException also right around 250 iterations processing the same sub. I have tried setting the ConnectionLimit of the request to the thread count with no luck.

Variable 'encoding' is used before it has been assigned a value. A null reference exception could result at runtime.Variable 'tempcookies' is used before it has been assigned a value. A null reference exception could result at runtime.
I am trying to implement the webrequest get and post methods. I am accessing a secure site that requires login authentication and was told that instead of sending a login request all the time; login to the site and capture the cookie and use this to send it in the header to get results from the page. In other words let us use google for example.
Lets say google required u to login before searching for something. Now I login through my browser and leave the site logged in. Now I send a httwebrequest from my program that includes the cookie authentication details in the request header and get results for say ?param=sports. Now when I increment the page number like &page=3, I am still only getting page 1 results. Here is some code:
[Code]...
I would like to search an online (internet) database and import the result in my own Windows program. As I understand from reading and searching I first have to do a get from the default (search) page to get the cookies for instance and then do a post providing the filled input fields and adding the previously collected cookies. So far getting the information seems to work but submitting the data back to get the actual search result doesn't seem to work. This is what I have so far: [code]Anybody that can point me in the right direction? I my assumption correct that I first have to do a Get and then Post the correct data back?
