Hi,
I would like to have some lights on a problem I just met:
After the problem of adding new contacts in a row (which basically ban me after 3-4 contacts added, even if I wait 5 sec between them)
I'm now having a problem during the contact delete phase:
-> The first attempt to delete a contact is fast: less than 1sec, perfect.
-> The second contact I want to delete (in a row, after like 3-5sec) takes 10-15 sec to be deleted (I'm talking about the HTTP request which takes this time to come back)
-> During the attempt to delete the 3rd contact, I just receive timeout.
The problem is that I find NO DOCUMENTATION about how to bypass those limits, and seriously, how adding 2 contacts in a row is a DDOS attack? Why can't we remove several contacts in a row?
Thank you very much for any information.
Regards.
I found out I was using httpRequest through c# for every DELETE HTTP requests and WebClient for others.
I was using it like this (with problem)
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(sRequest);
request.UserAgent = "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1;)";
request.Method = "DELETE";
request.ContentType = "Content-type: application/json; charset=utf-8";
myYahooReturn.webResponse = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
and now (the working code) it's :
WebClient client = new WebClient();
client.Headers.Add("user-agent", "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1;)");
client.Headers.Add("Content-Type", "application/json; charset=utf-8");
byte[] byteArray = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(sPostData); //in the delete case : sPostData= "";
byte[] responseArray;
responseArray = client.UploadData(sRequest, "DELETE", byteArray);
Just in case someone encounter the same problem..
(and if someone knows why it wasn't working, I'd be thankful to have an explanation!)
