EXAMPLE16 connects to United Parcel Service's package tracking web 
service.  UPS requires that SSL support be available in order to use their 
server.

In order to comply with that requirement, HTTPAPI uses the SSL support 
that's built into OS/400.

The error message 'SSL is not available for use' means that you do not 
have SSL support set up properly on your iSeries.  Information on how to 
configure SSL on the iSeries (and any additional LPPs that you need to 
install) can be found in the Information Center.

Networking -> Networking Security -> Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)

Choose "Plan for SSL Enablement" to make sure you've got all of the 
necessary LPPs installed.

Once you've got them installed, you'll need to use the Digital Certificate 
Manager to create a *SYSTEM certificate store.  Information on how to do 
that should also be available in the Information Center, though I've only 
done it once, a long time ago and I don't remember the exact steps you 
need to take.  (Maybe someone else does?)

Once that's done, you'll need to set up the SCK_HTTPAPI_UPSTRACK 
application ID in your Digital Certificate Manager.  If you call 
EXAMPLE16 with an account that has sufficient authority, it'll try to 
install that for you.

If that doesn't work, you can set it up manually in the Digital 
Certificate Manager by signing into the *SYSTEM certificate store and 
selecting "Manage Applications"
