HTTP Erro 408 Request timeout

-

What is Error 408?
The Web server (running the Web site) thinks that there has been too long an interval of time between 
1) the establishment of an IP connection between the client (e.g. your Web browser ) and the server and 
2) The receipt of any data on that socket, so the server has dropped the connection. The socket connection has actually been lost - the Web server has 'timed out' on that particular socket connection. 

 The request from the client must be repeated - in a timely manner

 408 errors are often difficult to resolve. They typically involve one-off variations in system workload or operations

 408 errors in the HTTP cycle
Any client (e.g. your Web browser) goes through the following cycle when it communicates with the Web server:
  1. Obtain an IP address from the IP name of the site (the site URL without the leading 'http://'). This lookup (conversion of IP name to IP address) is provided by domain name servers (DNS's).
  2. Open an IP socket connection to that IP address.
  3. Write an HTTP data stream through that socket.
  4. Receive an HTTP data stream back from the Web server in response. This data stream contains status codes whose values are determined by the HTTP protocol. Parse this data stream for status codes and other useful information.

This error occurs in the final step above when the client receives an HTTP status code that it recognizes as '408

 This error is because of a timeout. On the face of it, it looks as though the server is timing out. So,  the server side to see how long the call is taking. However, there's a chance that it may just be a client side problem because I sometimes get this error when I pause the debugger on the client side. i.e. the Request is sent to the server, the server sends the Response back, but the client doesn't accept it. I know this sounds funny, and I haven't been able to figure out why this happens myself. Anyway, you can try setting the timeout to something much larger in the WebRequest on the client side:

 request.Timeout = 60000

 or set the Execution Timeout at web.config file of httpRuntime tag.

     <httpRuntime executionTimeout="300" />

 by default it is 110 seconds and you can try to increase this value and verify.

Email Sending through O365 using OAuth Protocol

-
  Microsoft Office365 EWS servers have been extended to support authorization via the industry-standard OAuth 2.0 protocol. Using OAUTH protocol, user can do authentication by Microsoft Web OAuth instead of inputting user and password directly in application Microsoft / Office 365 OAuth + EWS We can use the OAuth authentication service provided by Azure Active Directory to enable our application to connect with IMAP, POP or SMTP protocols to access Exchange Online in Office 365. To use OAuth with our application we need to register application on Azure Active directory and other steps also we need to do to get the access token back. Below are the steps   To use Microsoft/Office365 OAUTH in your application, you must create an application in  https://portal.azure.com . Sign into the Azure portal using either a work or school account or a personal Microsoft account. If your account gives you access to more than one tenant, select your account in the top right corn

IISRESET vs App Pool Recycling ?

 I think most IIS administrators know IISRESET command, and why they use it. One of possible reasons can be to restart IIS services to initialize web applications, or to apply some changes of applications & IIS settings .There’re just a few conditions those need your IISRESET command. In most situations, you don’t need this. I have a concern if you always run this command for applying any changes, or release system resource – memory – regularly, or frequently. Because it’s much more cost than what you really need to take – there’re side effects Recycling App Pool’ has been introduced from IIS6 in Windows2003. It’s designed to restart only application pools(=worker processes). It can be done in a command prompt(run ‘IISAPP /?’ in a command prompt for details), as well as in the IIS manager What IISRESET does? When you run IISRESET, many things will happen. In order to understand them, I think I need to show you how IIS looks like – about IIS core components. The below shows you role

Deploy .Net6.0 Web api with docker

  What is Docker? Docker is a containerization platform, meaning that it enables you to package your applications into images and run them as “containers” on any platform that can run Docker. It negates the classic: “It works on my computer” argument as Docker images contain everything needed for the app to run. Are Containers the same as Virtual Machines? They are similar, but not the same. In short: Virtual Machines provide OS Level Virtualization Containers provide App Level Virtualization This concept is depicted below: Why Would You Use it? In short you would use Docker, (and hence containers), for the following reasons: Portability.  As containers are self- contained  they can run on any platform that runs Docker, making them easy to stand up and run on a wide variety of platforms. Scalability.  With the use of additional “orchestration” you can spin up multiple container instances to support increased load. Performance.  Containers generally perform better than their VM counterp
