Closed Connection Issue

I'm pretty sure this is a one-time problem but I thought I'd post a message here and see if anyone knows what may have caused it. We use Dragnet to store feedback from the web sites we host. We do this using the addItemExternal method of the web service. Yesterday I received the error below. Our server arrangment is as follows: web server hosting several web sites, db server, vault and dragnet running on 3rd server.

Any insight would be appreciated.

Code: Select all

System.Net.WebException: The underlying connection was closed: The remote name could not be resolved.

Hmm, 26 views so far and not a single reply

I guess I'm the only person to ever have this issue. Fortunately I haven't had any more problems so I guess it was just a one time thing.

It looks like a DNS lookup failed in your C_130TCG application, and it could not contact the Dragnet web service. If this problems happens again, you may try using the IP of the computer hosting the Dragnet web service instead of a domain name when contacting it from your application. However, this will only work if the Dragnet server does not use named virtual hosting for the Dragnet service.
