   Re: Error Code

   Hello,
   > I'm getting the following error when calling the programs:
   > "connect(): A route to the remote host is not available."
   I guess the obvious question is this:  Is there a route to the remote
   host?
   Type 'CFGTCP' <enter>  choose option #2.  Is there a route that tells
   the TCP/IP support in OS/400 how to get to the host?  Or to another
   router that, in turn, knows how to get to the host?
   Or are you supposed to go through a proxy? (which knows how to get to
   the host..?)
   > Judging by most of the other posts I'm guessing a firewall issue?
   It seems unlikely that your firewall would return a 'no route to host'
   error message to HTTPAPI.  It'd be more likely to either discard the
   connection attempt entirely (in which case HTTPAPI would time out) or
   send back a "connection refused" error.
   Returning "no route" would be a very bizarre and misleading thing for
   a
   firewall to return.

   IMHO, the starting point is to know how your network is supposed to
   work.  How is your system supposed to send data to the Internet?  Does
   it send data to a router?  Does it send data to a proxy?
   Once you know the answer to that, then you can ask your self "have I
   configured OS/400 to send data to that router?" or "have I told
   HTTPAPI
   to use that proxy?"
