Sorry,

The line I was looking at was line 289 which is part of the check_more_chunks subroutine.  I am not sure what the 379 is, it's part of the response from the API.  I would need to make a call to this to get the full response and then send it to you.

I'm having an issue with a web request failing when switching from pxplus 18 to 19.10

379

{"purchase_orders":[{"created_at":"2023-05-01T17:56:18Z","updated_at":"2023-06-25T01:34:53Z","id":117182,"status":"completed","currency":"USD","incoterms":"MILL           ",


Line 289 l=dec(ath(mid("000000"+hex$,-8)),err=*break) is returning value larger than the length of the string at 889 and causes an error 47.  What could be causing this issue?

The issue is with the FedEx sandbox.  It is very particular concerning sequence of JSON as well as options submitted.

Okay, I'll have to see if FedEx supports 1.0 at the customer is on an older version of PxPlus.

I thought that call "*plus/web/request" defaulted to 1.1 and would need to update %web_request_http_ver$ to change it 1.0.

I am trying to make an API call to FedEx rate quote.  The JSON works fine in Postman, but when I attempt it through the web/request I am getting unreadable response.

call "*plus/web/request",url$,request$,rcv_data$,rcv_hdr$,"","",extrahdr$,method$

Since the header is returning HTTP/1.0 500 Internal Server Error and Content-Encoding is returning gzip I believe I have something incorrect in the heading.

 

James,

I appreciate the response.  It is a FACTS customer and it appears that newer versions open windows as new sessions which was causing the disconnect.

I need to convert XML data to JSON.  I see there are some objects to do that, but wondering at what version the json object was available.  The customer is at PxPlus 2018 (15.10).

I'm just curious about global variables.  I am setting a variable %my_variable$="Greg", but when I pull up a new window and do a ? %my_variable$ it is showing as empty.  Is there something else that needs to be set to define a global variable?  This is version 15.10.

Can the environment function be used to return environment information from a local machine when in client / server using WindX?

? env("SSI_BASE") returns "" because it is checking for the environment variable on the linux server, but I want to check it on my local PC.

I am trying to use the scroll mnemonic based on some BBx code and having some issues.

print 'scroll'(4,7,76,17)

print @(4,23)"Enter Memo / Item, F3-End, F4-Backup" is printing over the top of line 1.

Any recommendations or suggestions?

Is there a method to remove a password from a program if the user that created the program can no longer remember the password?

I was getting this error on a file that was getting too large.  I had to work around it by doing a check and rotating files when they reached a size limit.

I don't believe there are any firewalls on the linux server, but will check that out.

It's a bit of a confusing issue.  What the network team is indicating is that the request makes it through the firewall, but does not show in the logs for the web service.
