The following code returns a timeout message even though we receive a valid response from the API sandbox.

Any idea why we would get a timeout when the httpapi_debug.txt file shows we received a valid response?
Our RtnValue contains blanks after the timeout.

This line of code times out even though the httpapi_debug file in the IFS show we received a response;

I mistakenly thought that the httpapi_debug.txt file was displaying the response, but it was actually just displaying the request body.
We've updated the library to version 1.49 and we still get the same timeout error.

The error happens on this line of code in COMMSSLR4:
0006.23 c eval rc = poll( pfd: 1: peTimeout * 1000)

You have written an "additional header" callback. Is it possible that you wrote that incorrectly? This is a common reason for a timeout.

You are right. There was a mistake in the additional header callback. I didn't put a CRLF in between each header, which was the cause of the problem. Thanks!
