The problem continues: the Tomcat-based webapp consistently fails to access maps.googleapis.com for one customer (regardless of whether I run Tomcat under Java 7 or Java 8), but works fine everywhere else, under Java 6, 7, and 8, under OS releases from the current one all the way back to V6R1. I've worked up a native test, using Scott Klement's HTTPAPI, plugging the above request into his EXAMPLE3 program that demonstrates https. I had hoped that it would fail in the same way, and I might find something in the diagnostics, but instead of failing, it consistently works perfectly. And our Java specialist gave me a simple JAR, runnable from a QShell command line, that sent the same request, the same way the webapp does. And *it* fails consistently, except that it always seems to fail with the "Failed to connect" message, rather than the "Unable to find acceptable protocols" message, whereas the webapp switches between the two messages, seemingly at random. Could there be some LICPGM that's missing, that would only affect the ability of Java to connect to the web service, but leave HTTPAPI unaffected? -- JHHL -- This is the Java Programming on and around the IBM i (JAVA400-L) mailing list To post a message email: [email protected] To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: https://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/java400-l or email: JAVA400-L-request-+hD5IHI5Xscn3HwCXmMcX9BPR1lH4CV8@public.gmane.org Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at https://archive.midrange.com/java400-l.
