WebExceptionStatus Enumeration

Defines status codes for the WebException class.

Namespace:  System.Net
Assembly:  System (in System.dll)
public enum WebExceptionStatus
Member name Description
Supported by Portable Class Library Success No error was encountered.
NameResolutionFailure The name resolver service could not resolve the host name.
Supported by Portable Class Library ConnectFailure The remote service point could not be contacted at the transport level.
ReceiveFailure A complete response was not received from the remote server.
Supported by Portable Class Library SendFailure A complete request could not be sent to the remote server.
PipelineFailure The request was a piplined request and the connection was closed before the response was received.
Supported by Portable Class Library RequestCanceled The request was canceled, the WebRequest.Abort method was called, or an unclassifiable error occurred. This is the default value for Status.
ProtocolError The response received from the server was complete but indicated a protocol-level error. For example, an HTTP protocol error such as 401 Access Denied would use this status.
ConnectionClosed The connection was prematurely closed.
TrustFailure A server certificate could not be validated.
SecureChannelFailure An error occurred while establishing a connection using SSL.
ServerProtocolViolation The server response was not a valid HTTP response.
KeepAliveFailure The connection for a request that specifies the Keep-alive header was closed unexpectedly.
Supported by Portable Class Library Pending An internal asynchronous request is pending.
Timeout No response was received during the time-out period for a request.
ProxyNameResolutionFailure The name resolver service could not resolve the proxy host name.
Supported by Portable Class Library UnknownError An exception of unknown type has occurred.
Supported by Portable Class Library MessageLengthLimitExceeded A message was received that exceeded the specified limit when sending a request or receiving a response from the server.
CacheEntryNotFound The specified cache entry was not found.
RequestProhibitedByCachePolicy The request was not permitted by the cache policy. In general, this occurs when a request is not cacheable and the effective policy prohibits sending the request to the server. You might receive this status if a request method implies the presence of a request body, a request method requires direct interaction with the server, or a request contains a conditional header.
RequestProhibitedByProxy This request was not permitted by the proxy.

The WebExceptionStatus enumeration defines the status codes assigned to the Status property.
