RE: Ftpapi Digest, Vol 44, Issue 3
Thank you for the help!
I have now successfully sent information to my HTTPS server which my web guy was able to see, using http_url_post.
I still have to test having him send something back... He was just dumping out whatever I sent.
I believe I have to have him send XML data to /tmp/httptest.html... Or whatever's in the 4th parameter of http_url_post?
I'm still not sure why the http_url_post_xml didn't work, but the http_url_post worked.
I discovered (using http_redir_loc) that, without the "/" the 302 "redirect" was just adding the "/" to the end.
But when I actually used the "/" at the end I was getting the XML parse error.
I have a question on a separate subject, I'm actually going to have to subscribe to another list,
Just wondered which list is the right list... Where do I post questions about OpenSSH and SFTP?
Thanks,
Charlie

Debug logs are generated when you turn them on.
(from example1)
*********************************************************
* Turning on debugging.
*
* Calling http_debug and passing *ON will turn on
* HTTPAPI's debugging support. It will write a debug
* log file to the IFS in /tmp/httpapi_debug.txt
* with loads of tech info about the HTTP transaction.
*
* The debug file is crucial if you have problems!
*********************************************************
c callp http_debug(*ON)
After you call your program, look in /tmp/httpapi_debug.txt and you will see most of the "conversation" that goes on behind the scenes.
As far as slash or no slash, it depends on if you know what you want to get. In this case, it sounds like there should be a web service running on the server and you should be making a direct call to the web service (most likely no slash). However, if you want to retrieve whatever is at http://abc.com/products/ then include the slash. The web server will serve up the standard page from that directory (most likely index.html). If upon examination of the index.html page, you decide to pull up producta information, then it would be appropriate to make the call to http://abc.com/products/producta.html (no slash - direct retrieval of page).
302 is a redirection "error". Example4 shows one way to deal with 302.

Hi,
I'm trying tu use a simple SOAP to inzitialize me to Scott's HTTP tool.
This is my invoke SOAP
SOAP =

+' xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";>'
+'<soap:Body>'
+'<GetRating xmlns="http://tempuri.org/"; />'
+'</soap:Body>'
+'</soap:Envelope>';
The simple webservice result is the string "AAA" but I can't read it. My http_url_post_xml call did not response with error (rc = 1) but I didn't read string "AAA".
This is my simple code, can you help me?
