FW: HTTPAPI question
Hey all,
We have been using the HTTPAPI service program for some time now.
Recently, we created a program to do many posts to an outside domain.
When we start up a new job and post these entries, the program gets to
a specific spot then quits. When I say "quits" I mean the
gethostbyname function returns a null for a host. What is funny about
it is the previous attempt at a gethostbyname for the same host was
successful. In fact the host does not change for all the posts we are
attempting. Once this null is returned each and every subsequent
gethostbyname request in that job returns a null. Which eventually
ends up with a host not found message. The subprocedure we are
finding this issue in is http_build_sockaddr.
We have been exploring problems with data with no success.
Those explorations included getting rid of suspected bad data,
repeated attempts with the same data from one successful attempt and
many attempts with smaller batches of data. There is only one
consistent piece to it. The process has never been able to post more
that 360 successful times. There is no consistency to when the
gethostbyname fails. It could fail after 150, 231, 360 attempts.
My question is has any one seen this issue? If so, what solutions did
you use? Should we install a more current version? Any help would be
appreciated.
Thanks,
Michael J. Fasnacht
