Underlying connection was closed, unable to connect

[Jim]

I have the following code:


Line 35: Dim sURL As String = "http://www.google.com"
Line 36: Dim data As Stream =
client.OpenRead(Server.UrlPath­Encode(sURL))
Line 37: Dim reader As New StreamReader(data)
Line 38: Results = reader.ReadToEnd()


I get an error on Line 36, Exception Details: System.Net.WebException:
The underlying connection was closed: Unable to connect to the remote
server.


The stack trace is below:
[WebException: The underlying connection was closed: Unable to connect
to the remote server.]
System.Net.HttpWebRequest.Chec­kFinalStatus()
System.Net.HttpWebRequest.EndG­etResponse(IAsyncResult asyncResult)

System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetR­esponse()
System.Net.WebClient.OpenRead(­String address)
AtomzSearchPOC.Result.Page_Loa­d(Object sender, EventArgs e) in
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\GoogleTest\­Result.aspx.vb:36
System.Web.UI.Control.OnLoad(E­ventArgs e)
System.Web.UI.Control.LoadRecu­rsive()
System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequ­estMain()


Any help on resolving this issue would be appreciated

Hi,

Try this instead.


Dim wc As New System.Net.WebClient

Dim sr As New System.IO.StreamReader(wc.OpenRead("http://news.google.com/"))

Dim strHtml As String

strHtml = sr.ReadToEnd

sr.Close()

wc.Dispose()
