Re: Web Services Server and new RPGLE API

For IWS an RPG interface such as the one you describe would normally be powered by a URL like:

http://cfitest:10021/web/services/TESTAPI/GetAcctBal/000222933

And the JSON body you show in the URL would come back at you as the payload.

It depends how you configured tings in the wizard and without knowing the settings you used I am just guessing.

Were you following one of IBM's examples?

I created an API using the IWS wizard.

I'm entering this into the browser:

http://cfitest:10021/web/services/TESTAPI/GetAcctBal/{"ACCT#":"000222933"}<http://cfitest:10021/web/services/TESTAPI/GetAcctBal/%7b%22ACCT#":"000222933"}>
I've also tried
http://cfitest:10021/web/services/TESTAPI/GetAcctBal/"000222933";<http://cfitest:10021/web/services/TESTAPI/GetAcctBal/%22000222933%22>
and several other variations. I'm getting a 404

This cfitest page can't be found
No webpage was found for the web address: http://cfitest:10021/web/services/TESTAPI/GetAcctBal/%7B"ACCT#":"000222933"}


Poking around the logs available in IBM Web Administation for I are these:

[5/5/21 13:52:26:283 EDT] 0000003a sun.rmi.transport.tcp W RMI TCP Accept-0: accept loop for ServerSocket[addr=0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0,localport=35310] throws

Console.log

The GetAcctBal/{ACCT#} variable was not supplied a value. Provide a value for this variable.
cycle.JSR250LifecycleManagerUtils.invokeMethod(JSR250LifecycleManagerUtils.java:219)

The rpgle pgm receives a character acct# and returns a number

Dcl-pr main ExtPgm('TESTAPI');
Acct# Char(9);
ActBal Zoned(9:2);
End-Pr;

Any hints? I've asked our communication techs to check their logs for locked ports, etc. and they said there was nothing.

Any help appreciated.

TIA
Jack
