"WebException: The request was aborted: The request was canceled." in Mono

I´ve checked my Xamarin app and I´m not using System.Net.HttpWebRequest anywhere, so Raygun client is the only bit using it.

I get some crash reports for unhandled exceptions like the following:

Class name System.Net.WebException Message The request was aborted: The request was canceled.

and the vague StackTrace: System.Net.HttpWebRequest.MyGetResponseAsync() in <7af4945ef43b4f32a07e4126137c609e>:0

Googling a bit, I saw this may happen when the call produces a timeout. However looking at Raygun client code it seams like the exceptions are handled correctly.

There´s a potential related issue with Mono runtime: https://github.com/mono/mono/issues/10719

Anyway I think Raygun client should never produce an unhandled exception.

1) Are you aware of this issue?
2) How would I work around the issue?

Thanks in advance

Hi Mitchell, thanks for your answer.

Our builds are using Mono 5.16.0. As I can read on your link, the issue seams to be fixed on Mono 5.18. I´m not quite sure at the moment if I can upgrade the build to use mono 5.18 (need more research).

More info:

• this happens on Android and iOS.
• the issue is getting quite serious (please see attached screenshot)

Regards, Diego.

I´ve just found out the current xamarin pre-release is using mono 5.18: https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-android/releases/tag/xamarin-android-9.1.103.7

I´ll try that version when it´s out of "pre" and will let you know if that fixed the problem so you can close this ticket later on.

Thank you
