Couchbase .NET client constructor fails to initialize properly

Question

I've been having an issue that began with the update to 1.3.3. When I try to initialize the constructor, it hangs almost all the time. I created a simple test application to test it out, and have verified across two test clusters I setup (with 2 nodes each).

I downloaded the Couchbase .NET SDK source from github and added a test project to it to try tracking down where the issue is occuring, and it looks like it is in Couchbase.BucketConfigListener.Start().

reset.WaitOne() never returns.

Digging deeper, I saw that the issue was in Couchbase.MessageStreamListener.ReadMessages(Uri heartBeatUrl, Uri configUrl). It looks like this.response = this.request.GetResponse(); (line 395) is what is hanging, then timing out, and throwing an exception.

I looked at the traffic with fiddler and it looks (to me) like everything is okay:

Request:

GET http://:8091/pools/default/bucketsStreaming/syncpuppylocal?bucket_uuid= HTTP/1.1 Cache-Control: no-cache Authorization: Basic Host: :8091 Connection: Close

Response:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK Transfer-Encoding: chunked Server: Couchbase Server Pragma: no-cache Date: Sun, 16 Dec 2007 21:49:24 GMT Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8 Cache-Control: no-cache

The test cluster is running the latest version of Couchbase server version: 2.5.0 enterprise edition (build-1059-rel)

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

Answer 1

I got this finally figured out. I was running fiddler2 to inspect the contents of the web requests/responses. However, that was interfering with the bucketsStreaming URI.

Once I closed out fiddler2 and made sure no other proxies were in place, it worked just fine. I was able to also reproduce the issue on demand by restarting fiddler2 before trying to initialize the constructor.

Hope this helps others that have this issue!
