Hi,

I have a problem when executing the function setrequestheaders() to which the following string is passed as a parameter:
"content-type: text/xml; charset=utf-8"

This call sometimes throws me the following error:
"Bad runtime function reference at line 20 in function http_function() of object uo_object." which corresponds to the line:
li_res = http.setrequestheaders("content-type: text/xml; charset=utf-8")

The inconvenience only happens from the compiled application, if it is run from the IDE it works correctly.

Any idea what might be going wrong?

Thanks

What version, release, build of PowerBuilder? Is the app compiled as 32-bit or 64-bit? What version/flavor of Windows is the compiled app running on?

Have you deployed the runtime files that provide the HTTPClient functionality?

Best regards, John

Hi John.

We are using:

IDE PB: Version 2022 R2 Build 2819,

Runtime version 2022 Build 2819.

The application is compiled in 32 bits on Windows Server 2012. Then, we run the application in Windows 10 and 11.

The libraries pbhttpclient.dll, pbjson.dll and pbrestclient.dll are from runtime 22.1.0.2819

Use SetRequestHeader, not SetRequestHeaders.

 

li_res = lnv_http.SetRequestHeader("Content-Type", "text/xml; charset=utf-8")

 

Make sure the data being sent is actually UTF-8, that is not the default.

 

li_res = lnv_http.SendRequest("POST", ls_ServerURL, ls_XMLdata, EncodingUTF8!)

Hi Roland.

I have already tried using SetRequestHeader instead of SetRequestHeaders and the application breaks at that point. And this is before we get to the SendRequest() function.

Hi,

John, Roland, I appreciate the answers you have given us.
What we did to fix it was run the Runtime Packager PB2022R2, create an .msi, take the files generated by the installation and verify that these are taken into account when running our application. And so it worked correctly.


Regards!
