I've got the complete source-code for EMMA ( don't know if any of you still know about this one ).
But it has a small, mediocre, giant, huge issue, i can't connect to the api serer.

I get the error (417) expectation failed.

And uhm, yeah, that's it.

Looking over the code, i can't see how any of the million changes i made, relate to the connection.
I do however think i found where the problem comes from.

if (!Globals.EveAPIDown)
{
request = (HttpWebRequest)HttpWebRequest.Create(url);
request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
request.Method = "POST";
ASCIIEncoding enc = new ASCIIEncoding();
data = enc.GetBytes(parameters);

try
{

Stream reqStream = request.GetRequestStream();
try
{
reqStream.Write(data, 0, data.Length);
}
finally
{
reqStream.Close();
}

response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse(); HERE, RESPONSE REMAINS NULL
}
catch (WebException webEx)
{
throw new EMMAEveAPIException(ExceptionSeverity.Error,
"Problem retrieving data from Eve web service", webEx);
}

Parameters for the "data" are correct, as i got the correct xml file in front of my nose, when pasting it into firefox, so i guess the request is not made correctly.

Is this to do with changes to the api server, or could i try something else?

Thanks,

Mark

What's the URL you are using (without the request data)?

Edit: Was about to suggest that but wanted to be sure first. You beat me to it.

lol. Wrote my answer before seeing your post. Edited after seeing it. Ain't those forums great ?!

Nope. I'm the EVEMon dude.
