Hi all,

My web application consumes a web service with the following code.

System.Net.WebProxy objprox = new System.Net.WebProxy("http://proxyservername:portnumber");
objprox.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password", "domainname");

WebService1 objService = new WebService1();
objService.Proxy = objprox;

But I get the exception as "The request failed with HTTP status 407: Proxy Authentication Required." while using the method form webservice.

Can any one suggest for this.

Did you try to Google for the error message [^]?

I e.g. found this answer[^], which basically looks like your code, too.

So maybe you are passing the wrong credentials to your proxy server?

Usually, activating detailed logging on the proxy server and inspecting the log file after your request to the web service should help to narrow down the issue.

Hi,

What you are doing is correct. Were you passing correct credentials to the server and also are you changing the URL of the proxy in your code at later stage? Please do post the fix in case you have got one, so that it would help others.

Regards,
Sushant.
