Hi all,
I've got a problem with creating an HTTP post request in .NET. When I do this request in ruby it does work.
When doing the request in .NET I get following error:
<h1>FOXISAPI call failed</h1><p><b>Progid is:</b> carejobs.carejobs
<p><b>Method is:</b> importvacature/
<p><b>Parameters are:</b>
<p><b> parameters are:</b> vacature.deelnemernr=478
</b><p><b>GetIDsOfNames failed with err code 80020006: Unknown name.
</b>
Does anyone knows how to fix this?
Ruby:
require 'net/http'
url = URI.parse('http://www.carejobs.be/scripts/foxisapi.dll/carejobs.carejobs.importvacature')
post_args = {
'vacature.deelnemernr' => '478',
}
resp, data = Net::HTTP.post_form(url, post_args)
print resp
print data
C#:
Uri address = new Uri(url);
// Create the web request
HttpWebRequest request = WebRequest.Create(address) as HttpWebRequest;
// Set type to POST
request.Method = "POST";
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
// Create the data we want to send
StringBuilder data = new StringBuilder();
data.Append("vacature.deelnemernr=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode("478"));
// Create a byte array of the data we want to send
byte[] byteData = UTF8Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(data.ToString());
// Set the content length in the request headers
request.ContentLength = byteData.Length;
// Write data
using (Stream postStream = request.GetRequestStream())
{
postStream.Write(byteData, 0, byteData.Length);
}
// Get response
using (HttpWebResponse response = request.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse)
{
// Get the response stream
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream());
// Console application output
result = reader.ReadToEnd();
}
return result;
