RE: HTTPAPI & revoked SSL cert

It's the cert error in HTTPAPI. Once the cert error appears, it seems that every subsequent HTTPAPI call made within the same job will fail with the same cert error. The first day it happened, we had about 360 of them before we restarted the IBMi job. IT is notified for every one, and they appear in the IBMi joblog.

Justin,

Could you elaborate on preventing a string of subsequent errors. If the CGI Job is in a *MSGW state, it's obviously not going to have a problem with subsequent errors. Where are the errors being seen? The end user? HTTP server job logs?

7.3, but this process started back on 7.1.

We started running this process in 2016. We first saw this issue a
week ago Monday. Once the first error appeared, every subsequent call failed.
It did it again yesterday. Just like before, once the first error
appeared, every subsequent call failed. I was out of the office both
days, and I had ops bounce the Apache server. Both times that
immediately fixed the problem.

I can't replicate it inside or outside of HTTP.

Yes, the URL is a literal in the RPG code.


Eliminating the error would be ideal, but right now I'd just settle
for damage control (ie. when the first error happens, do something to
prevent the string of subsequent errors).


Thanks
