httpclient postasync windows phone 8.1 universal app second call 404 error

Question

I have a problem with httpclient in a universal windows phone 8.1 app. I've been looking but i have not a valid solution in any post.

the problem is that, when i call to the web service first time runs correctly, but when i call it, second or third time, gives me an error 404.

Until you restart the application will not run again.

i need to send that data in a post function cause i want to send a xml formated to string.

my code is very simple:

var handler = new HttpClientHandler
        {
            Credentials = new
                NetworkCredential("user", "pass", "domain")
        };


        using (var client = new HttpClient(handler))
        {
            var formContent = new FormUrlEncodedContent(new[]
                    {
                        new KeyValuePair<string, string>("XMLText", XMLText),
                        new KeyValuePair<string, string>("param1", "textParam1")
                    });

            HttpResponseMessage response = new HttpResponseMessage();
            response = await client.PostAsync(URL, formContent);
            var responseString = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
            MessageDialog msgbox = new MessageDialog(responseString);
            await msgbox.ShowAsync();
        }

and my web service is even simpler:

[WebMethod]
    public String SetEnvioXML(string XMLText, string param1)
    {
        return XMLText;
    }

Any solution?

Sorry for my english and thaks for all!

Any help is welcome!

Answer 1

Finally i found the solution, i changed the autentication from windows autentication, to basic autentication in IIS, setting the domain in it. Then i try that:

client = new HttpClient();
var authHeader = new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Basic", Convert.ToBase64String(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(string.Format("{0}:{1}", "usuario", "contraseña")))); client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Authorization = authHeader;

And it rules. Thanks for all of your answers!

Try to use the below code may be this will works, First try to run this on Google Rest Client or Post Man

            HttpRequestMessage httpRequest = new HttpRequestMessage();
            httpRequest.Method = HttpMethod.Post;
            httpRequest.RequestUri = URL;
            httpRequest.Content = formContent ;

            response  =await client.SendAsync(httpRequest);
