Call URL with RUNTIME parameters

["Louis, Theresa" <tilouis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

   Hi,

   I am new to all of this but I need to call an URL from RPG and pass
   some parameters in the URL. I do not need to get anything back from
   the URL call. Basically what this URL call is going to do is connect
   to a web server and run an application. I have installed HTTPAPI on my
   AS400 and tried to follow the tutorial but I am totally lost. Do I
   need to learn SOAP and/or XML to use the HTTPAPI utility? I tried
   writing code similar to what was in the tutorial and I think I might
   be connecting to the web server because I am not getting an error code
   returned anymore but I know my application is not running so I must
   have something still wrong. I there any simple code template that I
   can use to plug into my RPG. Here is the URL I am trying to call (it
   shouldn't work for anyone outside our network).


   TCP/IP version:

    [1]http://172.17.10.55:8080/wow65/run?opid=432&QOEERRFND=D&QOEREFNBR=
   5144910


   Domain name version:

   [2]http://wat-wow01.waterousco.acipco.com:8080/wow65/run?opid=432&QOEE
   RRFND=D&QOEREFNBR=5144910


   I have tried using both and the HTTPAPI does not like the TCP/IP
   version.


   Thank you,
