Problem running "search" example in c# SDK

[afd0174]

Hi,

I have a question about the Splunk C# SDK. I have successfully built the SDK and can use the example submit() program to submit test data to my splunk instance. When I invoke the example search() program to retrieve the same data I submitted, I get some of my results printed to the command window, but then an exception is thrown:

Unhandled Exception: System.Net.WebException: The request was aborted: The connection was closed unexpectedly

I've tried modifying a number of parameter values on the HttpWebRequest object within the Send() method of the HttpService object without success (e.g. KeepAlive = false, large values for all of the timeout parameters). Any ideas on what the problem might be? Thanks.

Did you try https?

I'd suggest using fiddler to trace http if you have not done so. Below is how to do so.

You may also experiment with different searches with results of different sizes and speeds.

Install Fiddler
http://fiddler2.com/get-fiddler

Pick version 2 release on the right.

After installation. Go to Tools->Fidder Options->HTTPS tab. Check everything to enable full https decryption.

OK, thanks, I'll give it a try.
