Thx for the input. I did the GET / as described and I get a 400 bad request so it looks like it's a network issue.

Carefully type in the following (you may not see it echo - <return> means "press return"): GET /<return> <return> You should see a bunch of HTML data (possibly page not found html) or even an error response. If the telnet command returns an error saying host not found or anything like that, then you have a network issue to resolve. If this works, then Unidata has implemented its own equivalent of the hosts file (that would be an incredibly poor design decision). That said, these things are usually due to DNS settings, firewall settings, or bad hosts file settings. Good luck! -----Original Message----- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Steve Long Sent: Friday, April 01, 2011 7:57 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] SOAP Services and Host Question Hi all - I have been working with accessing web services via the SOAP functionality in Unidata. We had been hitting the services via IP addresses instead of host names, and all has worked great. Recently, one of my clients has moved their web services to a load balancing cluster, so we now need to hit the web service using a DNS name, and it is failing. I turned on Protocol Logging and get this info: 04/01/2011 10:45:26 [ 16973890 9568286 ] HTTP_START: timeout=75000 04/01/2011 10:45:26 [ 16973890 9568286 ] HTTP_CONNECT 04/01/2011 10:45:26 [ 16973890 9568286 ] new host 10515dd0:wsCatalog:80 allocated (proxy:no) 04/01/2011 10:45:26 [ 16973890 9568286 ] host wsCatalog:80 not found in host List I thought this had to do with the /etc/hosts file (this is an AIX system), so we added an entry resolving the host name, but we still get the same error. Anyone know what "Host List" it's referring to if its not /etc/hosts? Thanks in advance, Steve Long Spyderweb Technical Services, Inc.
