Https request suddenly stopped working.

Hi Gary,

Check to see what the value of your MY.RTN.CODE variable is after your call createSecurityContext().

I’m guessing there’s going to be an error.

Your CTX.TYPE variable is blank. Try setting it to TLSv1.2 as the protocol version.

When CTX.TYPE is blank the type defaults so no error there. I did try TLSv1.2 but that did not work as well. I appreciate your suggestions. Thanks,

Can you show me your curl command?

You can X out the private info

This is what I execute that works. I would prefer not doing this. Makes me think I may need to create a subroutine that I will eventually use more and more out of necessity.

069: *      STMT = 'curl -v \':CHAR(10)
070: *      STMT:= '-X POST "https://domainname.com/auth/token" \':CHAR(10)
071: *      STMT:= '-H "Accept:*/*" \':CHAR(10)
072: *      STMT:= '-d "':REQUEST.OUT:'"'
073: *      STMTS = "sh -c '":STMT:"'"
074: *      EXECUTE STMTS CAPTURING STUFF

i added the data here.

069: *      STMT = 'curl -v \':CHAR(10)
070: *      STMT:= '-X POST "https://domainname.com/auth/token" \':CHAR(10)
071: *      STMT:= '-H "Accept:*/*" \':CHAR(10)
072: *      STMT:= '-d "grant_type=password&username=XXXXX&password=XXXXX"’
073: *      STMTS = "sh -c '":STMT:"'"
074: *      EXECUTE STMTS CAPTURING STUFF

The most evident difference I see is your curl command doesn’t include the content-type header.

But I do see you said “stopped working” which indicates it worked in the past.

Are you getting errors from any of the function calls?

I recommend turning on logging on the call and see what the log file procides as a diagnostic trace. It;s usually easy to decipher. 

i removed this line and it works. I didn’t think that wouild be the fix.

RET1 = setRequestHeader(HANDLE,'HTTP Protocol','HTTP/1.1')

Thanks for the suggestions. It got me to try different things that I did not think would be the cure. this is what is working now

.052:       HTTP.METHOD    = "POST"
053:       OUT.URL        = TOKEN.URL:TOKEN.ENDPOINT
054:       VERSION.CODE   = setHTTPDefault('VERSION','1.1')
055:       CTX.TYPE = ''
056:       MY.RTN.CODE    = createSecurityContext(MY.CONTEXT, CTX.TYPE)
057:       CREATE.CODE    = createSecureRequest(OUT.URL,HTTP.METHOD,HANDLE,MY.CO
NTEXT)
058:       RET1 = setRequestHeader(HANDLE,'Accept','*/*')
059:       RET1 = setRequestHeader(HANDLE,"content-type","application/x-www-form
-urlencoded")
060:       REQUEST.OUT  = 'grant_type=password'
061:       REQUEST.OUT:= '&username=':USERNAME
062:       REQUEST.OUT:= "&password=":USERPW
063: *
064:       stat           = submitRequest(HANDLE,30000,REQUEST.OUT,RESPONSE.HEAD
ERS,RESPONSE.DATA,HTTP.STATUS)
