    Problems using HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.Host

    I am having problems using HttpContext.Cur rent.Request.Ur l.Host.

    I have some code that does this...

    if (HttpContext.Cu rrent != null)
    {

    subdomain = HttpContext.Cur rent.Request.Ur l.Host;

    }

    Now if I put a break point on the if statement I get this error for the
    HttpContext.Cur rent.Request. Request: 'HttpContext.Cu rrent.Request' threw
    an exception of type 'System.Web.Htt pException'

    Now if I comment out the subdomain = HttpContext.Cur rent.Request.Ur l.Host;
    and stop at the same break point it works fine.

    Now this seems to be a problem with the 3.5 framework because after I
    installed it, this code seemed to not work any more.

    Any idea's?

    TIA,
    Brett

      Brett,

      Well, what is the message that is thrown with the exception? That would
      help quite a bit.

          Yes sorry about that.

          the message is Request is not available in this context.

          Error Code: -2147467259

          Stack Trace: a system.web.http context.get_req uest()

              the message is Request is not available in this context.

              OK; so what *is* the context - i.e. where is this code, and when does
              it run? i.e. is it part of a standard ASP.NET pipeline, or something
              more exotic?

              For the record, *if* this changed when you installed 3.5, then in
              reality it is probably a change in "2.0 SP1", not 3.5. I mention this
              simply because if it *is* a breaking change, you might need to watch
              out for people installing "2.0 SP1" until you have fixed the offending
              code.
