Title: [tcp] open issue
Post by: michaelgreer on April 01, 2019, 01:24:10 PM

Application is running on Redhat 7.6.  PXPlus version being accessed 13.10.  This fails:

open(hfn)"[tcp]someurl;someport;secure"

fails, but this does not:

open(hfn)"[wdx][tcp]someurl;someport;secure"

Both machines are on the same LAN.  Is there some configuration on the linux box of which I am unaware which would block the first open.  I have never had such an issue and use this technique extensively to access web API's.

Thanks!
Michael

What error is being reported when the connection fails.

The problem is likely that either openssl is not installed on your Redhat server or perhaps you are running the 32 bit PxPlus on a 64 Bit Redhat (or vice versa) without installing the appropriate libraries.

Mike,

I'm certain you are correct. Our System Engineer who normally installs did not handle this one and I know it is on his check list, so I didn't even think about it. I will post back with results.  Thanks!
