Hi Anja;

   This simple test worked for me using an invalid URL. The SendRequest command waited 10 seconds and then returned me a -1 (fail).

Note: I am using PB2017R2 build 1769 on W10 Spring Creator Edition

Thanks, I've tested the same it with following result:

httpclient http
http = CREATE httpclient

http.SetRequestHeader ( 'apikey', "***" )
http.SetRequestHeader ( 'Content-Type', "application/json" )

http.timeout=5

--> pre SendRequest : 08:00:02
ll_rc = http.SendRequest ( 'POST',  ls_webservice, ls_data )    
--> post SendRequest : 08:00:36

--> ll_rc=1

I receive expected results from the webservice, but in a longer time than the timeout defines.

When I try a false URL I get an other result: 503:Service Unavailable

Hi Anja,

Please try to set http.SecureProtocol from 1 to 5 and see if there is any improvement for a certain value.

Ken

With SecureProtocol=5 I get -1 (general error) as result of SendRequest.That's fine.

But this process runs much more than 5 sec. SendRequest runs 30 sec and than returns an error instead of the data. This is not really the expected solution.

Without the timeout I have to wait to, but I get a response from webservice.

I expected, that timeout defines the time when SendRequest stops. Without a response from the webservice, but after the timeout-Time.

Should I  define an exception handling to stop the SendRequest after the Timeout-time?

How could I realise that SendRequest stops after the Timeout-time?

Hi Anja;

  I can now confirm your timeout setting mismatch in execution ...

Test#1

Test#2

Test#3

    Please open a support ticket for this issue. It does not seem to matter how long you set the timeout period, the timeout always seems to occur in 11.4 sec.

Hi Anja,

Please verify with the attachment DLL. If the issue persists, I suggest that you open a ticket and provide a reproducible sample case in our support system so we can better track and handle this issue later on.

Hi Anja,

Did your problem get fixed with Timeout issue? We are planning to make use of Timeout property so thought to check with you. We are using PB2017R3 - Build 1858

Thanks, Vipin

hi, i also have same problem as Anja.

my code is :

lhc_Client = Create HttpClient

lhc_Client.SetRequestHeader( "Authorization", "Basic " + ls_Basic)

lhc_Client.SetRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json;charset=UTF-8")

lhc_Client.SetRequestHeader('Content-Length', String(Len(lblob_jason)))

lhc_Client.timeout = 3

li_Return = lhc_Client.SendRequest("POST", ls_url,lblob_jason)

it takes the reuqst 13 second to return with li_Return=1 the timeout has no effect.

i try adding lhc_Client.SecureProtocol=5 - no change.

how can i stop the request in the middle if i don't get response after no of seconds - maybe stuck...

i'm using pb 2019 R2  it doesn't work also in pb 2019 R3 ( a colleague of mine tried it)

thanks

Yael
