Hi,
I am trying to call a Saved search using C# SDK as below.

SavedSearchCollection coll = service.GetSavedSearches();

SavedSearch SplunkSearch = service.GetSavedSearches().Get("SavedSearchName");

Job searchJob = SplunkSearch .Dispatch();

while (!searchJob.IsDone)

{

try

{

Thread.Sleep(500);

}
catch (Exception ex)
{

 }

}

I am getting the following exception while trying to execute while (!searchJob.IsDone).

System.Net.WebException: The request was aborted: The request was canceled. at System.Net.ConnectStream.Read(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 size) at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ReadData() at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ParseText(Int32& startPos, Int32& endPos, Int32& outOrChars) at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ParseText() at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.ParseElementContent() at System.Xml.XmlTextReaderImpl.Read() at System.Xml.XmlLoader.LoadNode(Boolean skipOverWhitespace) at System.Xml.XmlLoader.LoadDocSequence(XmlDocument parentDoc) at System.Xml.XmlLoader.Load(XmlDocument doc, XmlReader reader, Boolean preserveWhitespace) at System.Xml.XmlDocument.Load(XmlReader reader) at System.Xml.XmlDocument.Load(Stream inStream) at Splunk.AtomEntry.Parse(Stream input) at Splunk.Job.Refresh() at Splunk.Job.get_IsDone() at SplunkDataPull.FetchData.Fetchdata()

Note:The issues is not occurring every time.Few runs are running without any issues few runs are throwing this exception.

I had same problem. Solution was to repair .net 4.0 installation on server where application was installed.
