Version 1.29 should in most cases be compatible with what you are doing. However, there have been some changes along the way. So, a test of the system would be good.

The install instructions have you deleting your old library and creating it "new" from the install. Depending on your current install, that might not be the correct procedure. Is your service program in LIBHTTP? Do you have custom programs in that library? Probably want to install to a libhttptest or something.

As to the larger problem, if you haven't changed the programs on the IBMi side, then you should try to think about what changed in the network and firewall to cause this problem. Just googling around, it sure seems like SELW is something either at the server or between the server and you causing the problem. Have you turned on the debug logs? Anything unusual in the debug logs? Strange continue codes?

Hi Mike,
Thanks for your answer.
Is there a newer version of Httpapir4?
The twenty instances of the same programa are in SELW status on the same line of code in Httpapir4.
