VC upgrade from 2.0 to 2.5 breaks SDK

[bsteer]

We just upgraded our VC server from 2.0 to 2.5 and now our VI code developed with the 2.5 SDK fails on the RetrieveServiceContent call using HTTP. I'm guessing this is a configuration problem, rather than a code problem, but can't find documentation about how to change the configuration in 2.5. Can somebody point me in the right direction?

Code snippet, written in C#;

ManagedObjectReference svcRef = new ManagedObjectReference();

svcRef.type = "ServiceInstance";

svcRef.Value = "ServiceInstance";

VimService service = new VimService();

service.Url = "http://" + url + "/sdk";

service.CookieContainer = new CookieContainer();

try

{

ServiceContent sic = service.RetrieveServiceContent(svcRef);

etc.

}

catch (Exception e)

{

etc.

}

The error message is "The request failed with an empty response."

I found the problem - the vpxd.cfg file can't be used to configure HTTP for the SDK any more. Instead, edit the proxy.xml file and set the <accessMode> to httpAndHttps.
