[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] HttpWebRequest in C#/Mono on N770 : The request timed out

[From: marc.pub]

Hello,

 

I try to access Internet in a C# / mono program with the HttpWebRequest
class on my Nokia 770. See my program WebFetch below.

 

When I execute the program it wait one minute at the
HttpWebRequest.GetResponse(); method and exit with a time out. See my log
below.

 

With the use of TcpDump I found that there is no exchange of data.

The program is not asking to initiate a new wifi connection

The behaviour is the same if the connection is active or not.

I can access the same url with the opera navigator in the same time.

 

I use the mono environment that I found at
http://www.mono-project.com/Mono:ARM. I believe it is the 1.1.9 mono
release.

I compiled the program (.exe) on Linux Ubuntu I386 with the 1.1.9 mono
Release.

 

Is someone succeeding with httpConnection and mono for the N770?

Maybe I should 'activate' the connection specifically for mono before using
HttpWebRequest class? But how to do?

 

Any idea?

 

Regards,

Marc Bordessoule.
