Browse All TopicsPlease help me to solve this problem. I am trying to get back the response from USPS shipping API .
But I get this error only,
Exception Details: System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (501) Not Implemented.
I have tried a lot with both "POST" and "GET" methods, but I can't solve it.
Dim Req As Net.HttpWebRequest = Net.WebRequest.Create(url)
Response.Write("3")
Req.Method = "POST"
Req.AllowAutoRedirect = True
postdata = para + res
Req.Timeout = 100000
Req.ContentLength = postdata.Length
Req.ContentType = "text/XML"
Req.ContentLength = postdata.Length
Req.KeepAlive = False
Dim writer As New IO.StreamWriter(Req.GetReq
writer.Write(postdata)
writer.Close()
Dim result As String
Dim objResponse As Net.HttpWebResponse = Req.GetResponse()
Dim sr As StreamReader
sr = New StreamReader(objResponse.G
result = sr.ReadToEnd
Response.Write(result)
sr.Close()
Please if anybody who know this, please come forward to help me to solve this issue.

Hi,
501 (not implemented) usually means that the remote server does not like the http method specified (i.e. Req.Method = "POST") or that your request does not specify http 1.1
If Net.WebRequest object has a http1.1 propertyl turn that on. Else try setting Req.Method = "GET" perhaps.
Note that the error is on the REMOTE server, not on your own system - so you may need to deal with the service provider to get it sorted out.
Cheers.
