Ok - Add the "throwonerror=yes" attribute to your <cfhttp> tag call.  sometimes 
connection failure is a read herring for some other error.

Subject: CFHTTP Connection Failure (fwd)


I've checked the forums and search on google, but I've yet to find an
answer.

I'm trying to make a CFHTTP call to ebay. And all I get are
"connection failure". The CFHTTP.Header is EMPTY. As in, NOTHING. No
status code, no nothing.

I can hit the url and get a response using a browser on the server in
question, but from cfhttp I get nothing.

.day goes by...

The url I'm trying to post to is:
https://api-test.ebay.com/aw-cgi/api.dll

Like I said, I get "connection failure". CFHTTP.Header is empty.

If I change the url to api.html or something else, I actually get a
connection/response (403 Forbidden), but I get a response! When I change
it back to .dll, back to nothingness...

If I got the url directly in the browser, it works fine.
