Hi there,
I'm using a IIS7 dedicated server with no load at all to run a website (.NET 4.0) and i test httpclient requests to it with a 3 second timeout.
I find that about 5-10% of the requests are lost ASIHTTPRequestErrorDomain Code=2 "The request timed out", which i consider excesive and causes many problems to my app (i'm triggering the requests from a mobile and tablet app)(the problem is same no matter the type of connection, location, etc.)
You can test requests in a loop to : 'http://46.165.233.9/httpclienttest.ashx'. It's just the default ASP generic handler that returns "Hello World" and see what happens.
Any kind of help would be appreciated.
My questions are...
Is this a normal behaviour? With a connection and 3 seconds timeout, getting 5-10% senders lost is a normal situation?
My server/webpage has not a certificate, can that be the problem?
Is it a server problem or one with the app?
What could i change in the server to solve this issue if the server or webpage configuration is the problem? Which are the most common causes to this problem on the server?
Thanks for any tips and help in advance.
