http_url_post SetError() #43: CommTCP_read: time-out

["Helge Bichel" <hbi@xxxxxxx>]

   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):

   L_  ß this shortened by me but actually contains the request shown
   above !

   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
