Re: HTTPPOSTBLOBVERBOSE

Hi Jimmy,

Having trouble with returnMsg column value from HTTPPOSTBLOBVERBOSE ...
<snip>
The documentation says returnMsg is a BLOB(2G) but when I run via ACS
Run SQL it comes back hexadecimal. Cast from BLOB to CLOB throws an
error. Casting returnMsg to varchar is not working either.

Have you looked into RESPONSEHTTPHEADER ? What info do you get?

You can also try using TRY_CAST to varchar using different CCSIDs until you find the right one - maybe it's 1201 or 1208.

When casting BLOBs it's always some kind of guessing-the-right-CCSID game, because a BLOB column/variable has generally no CCSID - but the data in it (as long as it's text) sure has.
