ModernHttpClient: stream was reset: PROTOCOL_ERROR

I seem to keep getting this error intermittently when running the Android version of my Xamarin Forms application. I am just asynchronously invoking a call to my API using HTTPS. Sometimes it works fine, sometimes it fails with this error. I haven’t been able to find a reliable way to reproduce. Any ideas?

I’ve just run into this issue as well and had to remove ModernHttpClient and change to the AndroidClientHandler. Strangely, the reason this became an issue for me is that we have just swapped our production server from a Server 2012 to a brand new Server 2016. Our app connected to the WebApi endpoints with no issues using ModernHttpClient/Server 2012, but hit the PROTOCOL_ERROR issue the instant we switched the A Record to point at the external IP of the new server.

@jw9364 wondering if you were able to find anything about downgrade. Azure rolled out HTTP 2.0 to all *.azurewebsites.net and we hit that problem again with older apps out there.

Happening both with ModernClient and with Xamarin’s AndroidClientHandler. Against Microsoft-HTTPAPI/2.0, not nginx.

alexsorokoletov on Dec 5, 2017

Same here. I guess ModernHttpClient is becoming somewhat irrelevant now with Xamarin’s implementations?

I removed ModernHttpClient and started using the new built in Xamarin HTTP Handlers and it fixed this issue for me.
