Re: How to monitor for a curl error

Hi All

I am out of my depth with this curl stuff and hoping someone can advise.

I have been searching for curl information - maybe I should be searching
for qsh ?

I am using curl to write to a GreyLog syslog server.

I am using qcmdexc to run the qsh command that uses curl to post to the
syslog server.

This works but I have found if there are many messages to be written I can
get an error
curl: (7) Failed to connect ... connection refused

This message appears in the joblog

My call looks like this;

callp(e) QCmdExc(Cmd:CmdLen);
if %error();

I do get an error but how do I retrieve the actual error that is being
sent to the job log (or the qsh session if run interactively) ?

I think the server is just having a hard time keeping up so if I get this
error I was going to retry sending the post or perhaps put a short sleep
to handle this issue.

Appreciate any suggestions

Thank you

Don
