We ran into the same issue after moving to the .NET 14.6 library.
To fix this we had to edit source and recompile the Google.AdWords.dll.
Line 45 in ReportUtilities.cs (Util\Reports) was updated:
from -
private const string DEFAULT_REPORT_VERSION = "v201109";
to -
private const string DEFAULT_REPORT_VERSION = "v201206"; //or to
whichever version you are using... looks like v201109_1 in your case
Now we no longer receive the "invalid content" error.
As for the other issue of code execution hanging we did not experience this
enough to see a pattern or problem. For this type of issue maybe RX
"ToObservable" could help if DownloadClientReport is run as a Task:
Add RX (System.Reactive.dll) and ExtensionMethod:
public static Task TimeoutAfter(this Task task, int
millisecondsTimeout) {
return
task.ToObservable().Timeout(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(millisecondsTimeout)).ToTask();
}
I learned about this from here (credit to the first comment there) -
