12019 error_internet_incorrect_handle_state ?

[Matt Butler]

Has anyone every had to deal with this?

12019 ERROR_INTERNET_INCORRECT_HANDLE_STATE The
requested operation cannot be carried out because the handle supplied is not
in the correct state.

I have check every API call and haven't got past this after my
HttpSendRequestEx...

lngRetVal = HttpSendRequestEx(rc1.hRequest, NULL, NULL, HSR_ASYNC,
(DWORD)&rc1);

See KB and upgrade to IE5.

BUG: Error 12019 When Calling InternetWriteFile
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
Microsoft Internet Explorer (Programming) versions 4.0, 4.01
When HttpSendRequestEx is used, error 12019
ERROR_INTERNET_INCORRECT_HANDLE_STATE
may be returned by InternetWriteFile.

RESOLUTION
This can be avoided by specifying INTERNET_FLAG_NO_CACHE_WRITE in the call to HttpOpenRequest. Here's an example:
HINTERNET hRequest = HttpOpenRequest(hConnect, "POST", "servername",
NULL, NULL, NULL, INTERNET_FLAG_NO_CACHE_WRITE, 0);
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug

Thanks. I've tried that with no success. I must be doing something
fundamentally wrong. I also can't run a HttpEndRequest on the request
handle...

That gives me the infamous 997 Error_io_pending.

Error_io_pending means you must wait for the completion callback to receive
the code 100 (request_complete) or 70 (handle closed) (depending on the function used)
before attempting to continue.
