It's attempting to do a DNS lookup for the host name that you provided in
your URL. It's not able to find the host.

Is DNS configured properly on your system?

Have you double-checked that you spelled the host name correctly in the
URL?

This has nothing whatsoever to do with your iSeries HTTP server or it's
admin instance. There's absolutely no relationship between those and
HTTPAPI.

I know that there are people who have worked on proxy support in the past,
but as far as I know, nobody has implemented it. For certain, nobody has
contributed changes back to the project to allow proxy support.

So, at least for the time being, HTTPAPI doesn't work with proxies. You
need a direct internet connection, or you'll need to modify HTTPAPI to
make it work.
