I am here having an issue with the HttpsClient.
The request runs into an "unknown error" whenever I try to add Content-Length to the header. It runs fine otherwise.
About the sample code below: you can directly copy/paste into VS2008 and load it as a test. I added a console command called "getit" to easily trigger the request.
This sample code works fine as is.?I also added my own custom header "Mycustomheader": "foo" and I do see it included on the response from httbin.org. This tells me that the custom headers do work as intended.
?
However, the moment this line gets uncommented:
//request.Header.SetHeaderValue("Content-Length", payload.Length.ToString());
The whole thing breaks down. And I can't figure out why... any help would be greatly appreciated.
