Dear Mike.
Regarding POST/GET the actual program is:
http_debug(*on); 110924
rc=http_url_post('http://www.oanda.com/cgi-bin/fxml/fxml' 080411
:%addr(data): %len(%trimr(data)) 080411
:filename); 080412
080412
if rc <> 1; 080412
msg = http_error; 080412
dsply msg; 080412
return; 080412
endif; 080412
Dates to the right (YYMMDD) shown the modification date
and you can see I added the debug y-day while the request
has been unchanged for more than 3 years.
It's a POST, not a GET. The debug file also states a POST
http_url_post(): entered
http_persist_post(): entered
http_long_ParseURL(): entered
do_post(): entered
POST /cgi-bin/fxml/fxml HTTP/1.1
so I don't think the usual confusion about POST/GET is playing here.
Firewall change could be a possibility. The AS/400 is physically hosted
and I have no influence on the large internal network and firewalls.
Tried to ping oanda.com from the AS/400 and from my PC: both
with no response surely caused by oanda.com not responding to pings.
I have to ask the hosting-center if they are blocking oanda.com (216.12.138.205).
Brgds
Helge

A couple of things strike me.
The actual error that is failing is a time out. You aren't getting a response from the server. The first error might also be a no
response. Firewall change?
Maybe the cgi-bin is down? but you said it worked in a browser. That should not be an issue.
http request shows a GET but you are using a POST. Huh?

Dear list members.
I got a suddenly got a problem with httpapi after the same program using it has been
running daily for about 3 years without any need for change or intervention.
I use OANDA.com for getting currency exchange rates and have an account for this at OANDA.com.
No changes in the requesting RPG program.
No changes in LIBHTTP.
The http request is:

(need to hide the client_id, so it?s just *all?x?)
Executing this directly in IE8 works well and returns a xml document with the correct content.
Executing this with httpapi results in (httpapi_debug.txt):
HTTPAPI Ver 1.23 released 2008-04-24

shown above !
recvresp(): entered

http_close(): entered
I notice the SetError #43 twice and think there is something happening at the first instance if this. But why?
I am also using httpapi for request the geonames.com and it works without any problems.
Hope for getting some help to explain and remove this error.
Best regards
Helge
