ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED error on http receive method

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am trying to read a XML via http. I have developed a code referencing this blog:

/people/rashid.javed/blog/2007/03/11/cricket-world-cup-http-client-and-simple-transformations

When http receive method is executed it gives me an error.

On executiong of: CALL METHOD client->receive it gives error:

code: 400 message: ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED

I treid changing host and buf in code below both to http://www.google.com to rule out the possibility of bad url. Also tried setting time out to 500 in send method. Still no luck.

ICM trace shows following:

Thr 4864] *** WARNING => Connection request from (16/6462/1) to host: http://www.google.com/, service: 80 failed (NIEHOST_UNKNO

How do I solve this error, please give me some tips.

I was looking forum for this issue but was not able to find a solution.

Here is complete code:
