Having issue with gsk_secure_soc_init hanging when trying to convert socket to SSL.

Here is the kicker...

This code is triggered two ways:
1) from inside a partition - no issues
2) from another partition, using DDM - this is where it hangs

This code is supplied from a vendor but they are having little luck finding the issue.

I tried to turn on HTTP_Debug but it errored, not sure if the version of HTTPAPI is current

Any ideas?

Hard to assist with what is provided, here.

I've never seen gsk_secure_soc_init hang before... I see errors, that's commonplace, but not seen it just hang.

I don't see how DDM relates. HTTPAPI doesn't use DDM.

Sorry Scott, I will try to explain better.

We run a PHP server on partition 2 that connects to partition 1 via DRDA job. The job on partition 1 is attempting to consume a secure service and we hang when the socket is being upgraded to secure

When the very same job on partition 1 is in initiated from partition 1 - everything works as we would expect. We are thinking there is some sort of security issue related to user?

I've not heard of anything like that before, sorry.

Since it is hanging up on gsk_secure_soc_init, which is IBM code, you might consider asking them about it.
