Using the ServiceStack Http Util extension methods, and following the exact instructions found here, invoking:
var result = await uri.GetJsonFromUrlAsync();
My application just terminates - no exception, no result, nothing. If I switch the call from async to sync it works just fine.
This is the only thing in the output windows:
The program '[42260] dotnet.exe: Program Trace' has exited with code 0 (0x0).
The program '[42260] dotnet.exe' has exited with code 0 (0x0).
Any hints here or additional troubleshooting steps?
