Question

I want to connect to another server using network.
So I write below code.

var webRequest = WebRequest.Create(@"10.3.4.56");

            using (var response = webRequest.GetResponse())
            {
                using (var rd = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))
                {
                    var soapResult = rd.ReadToEnd();
                }
            }

But there is error and it says

Invalid URI: The format of the URI could not be determined.

How to solve it?

Answer 1

The string you pass in to WebRequest.Create needs to be a valid Uri. Try WebRequest.Create("http://10.3.4.56").

TIP! Use the static Uri.IsWellFormedUriString method to check if the URI string is valid.
