Unhandled Exception: System.IO.IOException: Unable to create a transport connection.

I am quite puzzled by this error. To give you a background, we're in the process of migrating from Saleslogix to salesforce. We have an internal quoting software written in VB6. The software has been migrated to vb.net and runs without issues.

Here is where it gets wierd. I am able to create a form from scratch and perform a test login into salesforce.com. here is the code below.

[quote]Imports salesforce_connector.sforce
Public Class frmlogin

Private binding As sforce.SforceService

Private loginRes As LoginResult = Nothing

Now the above is a stand alone and it works fine. Now when i create a new form in our quoting application, with the exact same code, it gets stuck when attempting to authenticate login.
Here is an output of the error

Hi juventuss,

When you run this form as a windows forms application it runs fine, but when you try to launch the form from your quoting application, you get a socket error, correct?

Not sure what the issue might be, but I'd start by verifying that all required references are in place. 

Also, how are you creating the form in your quoting app?

juventussjuventuss
Yes thats what happens.

If i create a new project in vb.net the build runs perfectly and i am able to login to salesforce.com

Now when i open my project in vb.net and add a new form to the project with the same EXACT code as above, it errors out with the debug output shown above.

All references are in place. Could there be some sort of conflict i am not catching ? Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I'd guess your quoting application is changing some kind of global config which is then tripping up the Web services client, perhaps its registering a global proxy server setting, or changing the WebRequest protocol -> handler class mappings.
juventussjuventuss
THe quoting app has no interaction with the web. I have even made the saleforce login form the start up object but still get the same error.
juventussjuventuss
any suggestions ? Our implementation is pretty much stuck unless this problem is resolved.
SuperfellSuperfell
If it works fine outside of the quoting app, then something in the quoting app (either programiatically, or via an app.exe.config file) is changing the something in the environment which affects the .NET web services client.
If you can't see anywhere that changes the default proxy, WebRequest protocol mappings, or messes with global socket configuration, then i think you'll need to take it to Microsoft PSS.

Juventuss,

Did you ever find a resolution to this problem? I am having the same issue with an app.
When our c#/.NET pgm executes standalone (called from command line or debugger) it is able to make a connection to the server we are trying to access. However, when I call the same program from our Java application, I get the following:

>>Unhandled Exception: System.IO.IOException: Unable to create a transport connection. ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: The requested service provider could not be loaded or initialized
>> at System.Net.Sockets.Socket..ctor(AddressFamily addressFamily, SocketType socketType, ProtocolType protocolType)
>> at System.Net.Connection.StartConnectionCallback(Object state, Boolean wasSignalled)
>> --- End of inner exception stack trace ---
>> at System.Net.Connection.StartConnectionCallback(Object state, Boolean wasSignalled)


We are in desperate need of a solution to this issue.

Thanks,
Ivan
