Sorry to have bothered you all. It took a bit of sleuth work via some web
surfing, but eventually I found out that two DLLs, namely: libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll need to be installed in the same directory as the executable. The Could not load SSL library error went away and everything
started working perfectly. I had to follow a nunmber of links to get there but the download for
these two DLLs is available at: http://www.intelicom.si/modules.php?op=modload&name=Downloads&file=index&req=viewdownload&cid=1 Hopefully, some of you out there that encounter the same error will have
read this and my entire journey on this forum today will prove useful for
others. Regards, Eric Eric Tishler Software Architect Resolute Partners, LLC Phone: 203.271.1122 Fax: 203.271.1460 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original
Message----- OK, I admit I feel a bit stupid. A quick comparison
of properties on my working code’s TIdHTTP component showed that I had not
defined the IdSSLIOHandlerSocket component as the IOHandler. OK, with that said, I made the change and recompiled.
When I ran it again this time my exception was Could not load SSL library. I will delve into the Indy docs I found online. But
once again, if someone has a quick answer to this problem, I would be eternally
grateful. Any takers? Eric Eric Tishler Software

Message----- Quick update. I wrote a stand-alone application to
see if I could reproduce this and sure enough I have the same problem. What I
did differently is display the E.Message (where E is the Exception). It turns
out that the Post method is failing with the following exception message: IOHandler value is not valid. BTW – I have a TIdSSLIOHandlerSocket component on the
form too, because my URL starts with https. I have also found the Indy knowledgebase online and I
am looking for answers. But the clock is ticking and my boss is starting to get
antsy. Any help to speed up this process would be greatly appreciated. Eric Eric Tishler Software

Message----- I have an application that must communicate with a
server via the Internet using HTTP. (I have no choice in this). Using the Indy
TIdHTTP component I perform the following: Function CommViaHTTP(PostData : string) : boolean; var Source:
TStringList;
Response: TStringStream; strTemp
: String; begin
HTTP.ProxyParams.ProxyServer := '';
HTTP.ProxyParams.ProxyPort := 80;
HTTP.Request.ContentType := 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded';
Response := TStringStream.Create(''); try
Source := TStringList.Create;
try Source.Add(PostData); try strTemp :=
MainForm.AppSettings.StoredValues.StoredValue['WebSiteUrl']; HTTP.Post(strTemp, Source,
Response); except DebugLog('Server Response: ' +
Response.DataString); Result := False; Exit; end; DebugLog('Data posted to the Server: ' +
PostData); DebugLog('Server Responded with: ' +
Response.DataString);
finally Source.Free;
end; finally
Response.Free; end; end; I pulled this code from another module I am
maintaining and it works every time. When I first copied the code over to this
new module I tested it and never got a response from the server. I spent
several hours in the office this weekend trying to find my problem, and to get
this to work for me in my code (as presented above). The thing is it seems to
work occasionally. That is over a 4 hour testing period yesterday, I actually
got a response back from the server after the HTTP.Post method was called. It
worked twice, but failed about 10 times. *arggh* The code in the original module is essentially the
same, but works perfectly every time. Can anyone see what it is that I might be doing wrong
here? I am a beginner with Indy and HHPT via application programming. Although
I have a decade of hardcore sockets experience under my belt. Help! Eric Eric Tishler Software
