I am doing a program to get information from web page. After running long time(several hours), I always get a exception "Unable to read data from the transport connection : An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host", but, my try...Catch... doesn't capture the exception lead to program crash.
My Code:
C#
public string GetPage(string posturl, string encode, string postData, string CompanyName, string currentMainThreadName)
{
    string contentResult = string.Empty;
    string err = string.Empty;
    int couterTry = 0;
    
    Encoding encoding = System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding(encode);
    byte[] data = encoding.GetBytes(postData);
    
    do
    {
        // Set some request parameter
        // So as to readability, don't put below parameter set into a lonely function  
        this.request = WebRequest.Create(posturl) as HttpWebRequest;
        CookieContainer cookieContainer = new CookieContainer();
        this.request.CookieContainer = cookieContainer;
        this.request.AllowAutoRedirect = true;
        this.request.Method = "POST";
        this.request.Accept = "text/html, application/xhtml+xml, */*";
        this.request.Headers.Add("Accept-Language", "en-US,en;q=0.8,zh-Hans-CN;q=0.5,zh-Hans;q=0.3");
        this.request.KeepAlive = true;
        this.request.ContentLength = data.Length;
        this.request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
        this.request.UserAgent = "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; Trident/7.0; rv:11.0) like Gecko";
        Cookie ck = new Cookie("JSESSIONID", "074B29A53D2368D7C1ABC586821A8FA7");
        ck.Domain = target.Host;
        cookieContainer.Add(ck);
        this.request.Timeout = 60000;
    
        try
        {
            couterTry++;
            // Put post data into stream
            this.outStream = request.GetRequestStream();
            this.outStream.Write(data, 0, data.Length);
    
            // Send request and get relative response data
            this.response = request.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse;
            // Not untill request.GetResponse(), program begin sending Post request to destination Web page 
    
            if (this.response.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK)
            {
                this.inStream = this.response.GetResponseStream();
                this.SR = new StreamReader(this.inStream, encoding);
                // Return result web page html resource code
                contentResult = this.SR.ReadToEnd();
    
                lock (this.webLogWebLog)

throw exception location is:
sreader = new StreamReader(httpWebResponse.GetResponseStream(), encoding);
patentResourceCode = sreader.ReadToEnd();

It`s about your Asynchronous Task !
An asynchronous will operate in a different context from the one it was instantiated in.so Try Catch block is not effective in this case.

Please don't post solutions to chat with people asking or answering. The messages are not always sorted by date, so it can be a bit difficult to follow them correctly.
The best option is to use the "Have a question or comment?" (or the tiny "reply" on another comment). Another advantage is, that the person you write to will get a notification, otherwise it could be that he/she doesn't see your additional message.
