I have an ASP.NET web application and a .NET web service that is used by a web application. These applications are hosted on a remote server. I do not have remote shell access. When a web application calls a web method in a web service, I get the following error message:
A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not
properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed
because connected host has failed to respond Server_IP_Address:80
The strange thing: I do not always get this error. It works intermittently, and it works if I visit a website through vTunnel(proxy).
It also works if I test a website from Visual Studio 2008 by calling a web method on a remote server.
The remote server is an instance of Windows Server 2008 using IIS 7. The web application and web service are written in .NET 3.5.
