WebClient “error getting response stream”

Question

I've just got an error report from a client using a program I wrote, and I've been googling the nuts off of this error and can't find anything useful. The error is:

System.Net.WebException: Error getting response stream (ReadDone2): ReceiveFailure ---> System.Exception:    at System.Net.WebConnection.HandleError(WebExceptionStatus st, System.Exception e, System.String where)
   at System.Net.WebConnection.ReadDone(IAsyncResult result)
  at System.Net.WebConnection.HandleError (WebExceptionStatus st, System.Exception e, System.String where) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0 
  --- End of inner exception stack trace ---

  at System.Net.WebClient.<DownloadFileAsync>m__F (System.Object state) [0x00000] in <filename unknown>:0

The application is the launcher program for a game, it pulls down a manifest of files and patches any which are non-existent or outdated. All the files it downloads with a WebClient object, it looks like the error is being thrown by WebClient::DownloadFileAsync, but I can't find any documentation as to why this could be happening.

Any help would be much appreciated, the quicker I can fix this monday morning the better!

Answer 1

在sysadmin使用服务器配置播放了一点之后，这个问题似乎消失了，但是我不确定到底是怎么做的。

Answer 2

Does the client uses a proxy?

If yes, are you attaching the proxy to the WebClient object?

Your error simply mentions that the file could not be found, DownloadFileAsync needs a file stream, and if that's not there, you get an error...

Any thoughts in implementing a log system that can be activate through a parameter that would POST the log file into your FTP for example?

You could make use of several open source projects out there, like ExceptionReporter .
