No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it?

Question

Sometimes I get the following error while I was doing HttpWebRequest to a WebService. I copied my code below too.

System.Net.WebException: Unable to connect         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem. The problem is that I didn't start the selenium server. I have downloaded the selenium server and i started it. After starting the selenium server, issue gone and all worked fine.
