Guys; XML has been tricky for me the last three weeks, trying to send an XML doc form CF without knowing how to do it. I finally downloaded the SDK for the site I was trying to send to and I created my xml statement based on their code that they wanted to see. For instance The company that I am sending and receiving from requires an XML file that starts like this: <!DOCTYPE pp.request PUBLIC "-//IMALL//DTD PUREPAYMENTS 1.0//EN" "URL><pp.request merchant="1001" password="password" sdkversion="PERL" sdkt I copied this file into my template and inserted my coldfusion fields where necessary. I know... this is too simple a solution, however I could get no help from anywhere and was running out of time. My code on my end is made up of several <CFSET statements. <CFSET NewXML = "<!DOCTYPE pp.request PUBLIC ""-//IMALL//DTD PUREPAYMENTS 1.0//EN"" ""URL"">"> <CFSET NewXML = #NewXML#&"<pp.request merchant=""#merchant#"">"> etc etc I am sure you get the drift. If I am totally out in left field on helping to answer any dilemma then please accept my deepest apology.

I've tried using cfhttp as well as MSXMLHTTP (at least, from what little I've been able to decipher on how), but I'm coming up empty every time, with both methods... Might you possibly have some code snippets/samples of how to do this, or a good resource ("Sending XML Requests via CF for dummies, Abridged") that I might be able to check out? Anything at his point would be much appreciated!

We're using CF4.5 SP2 on NT and I got the same error. Couldn't get the problem solved using CFHTTP, so I switched to using the MS XMLHTTP object and bang!...the problem was resolved. Looks like a bug in CFHTTP, but I didn't take the time to address it with Allaire.

We use <cfhttp> to grab a wddx packet from an outside the house server. This has worked perfectly up until tuesday 19th. The error we get is : Connection Failure we suspected this to be a bug in CF 4.5 so we upgraded the server to 4.5.1 sp2. Has anyone encountered errors like this ? and how did you solve them ? A reinstall of CF server is the last thing we wanna do since they've got alot of services running on that machine.
