Unable to connect to remote server

I am using Job Submit api, it is working fine in my local system by enabling the proxy settings but when I deploy it IIS I am getting an exception saying connection failure.

Detailed Exception details:

Type : System.Net.Sockets.SocketException, System, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089

Message : No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 137.236.230.24:443

Should I have to set any configuration?

Please help me out

What do you mean by "when I deploy it IIS"?

preeti

That means the same piece of code is working fine in my local system(Visual studio) but when I publish the service and deploy it in Internet Information Services(IIS) it is throwing an exception. The purpose of deploying in IIS is that the service always runs and picks the request and sends the fax. As this is a third party dll(EasyLink) should I have to configure something?

Which exact DLL are you configuring? I'm wondering if this is a different piece of software than the code this forum generally talks about.

Also, what URL is your IIS server trying to connect to?

preeti

I am trying to connect to this URL :https://test2messaging.easylink.com/soap/sync

If you can see in the exception in the above posts it is mentioned as :

No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 137.236.230.24:443.

The IP address it is trying to connect is https://test2messaging.easylink.com/soap/sync which is 137.236.230.24.

But it is refusing the requests made.

Any idea?

What happens when you click on the URL? It should display a page saying you were able to connect. If you get an error something is blocking the connection.

preeti

When I ping in command prompt to 137.236.230.24 I am getting it as "The Remote Computer refused the network connection" .

Any idea?

skamens

Ping wouldn't work to that address - that protocol is disabled.

Unfortunately, from what I can tell you must have some internal network disruption in trying to access the API URL, as nothing at that URL would refuse the connection. I would suggest investigating your proxy settings to make sure the proxy is configured to allow your API request out through the network.

preeti

I have checked my proxy settings it is able to connect to EasyLink API when it is running locally but when it is deployed in IIS it is not able to connect. Proxy settings are correct and it is verified.

When clicked on the URL https://test2messaging.easylink.com/soap/sync it is navigating to the easylink page.

I have attached the screen shot for the same.

Should I have to configure anything else?

I don't believe you should have to configure anything else.

There must be something in the existing setup that is preventing your IIS server from connecting to the API site.

Some things to consider/try:

Make sure the code running in IIS is actually using the proxy.
Log in to the IIS server itself (or have someone do that), bring up a browser, and make sure you can access the API URL
If these items don't help, you might need to get your network administrators to trace the packets when IIS is trying to connect to see where they are being blocked.
