That's an "up to you". I always set a timeout for CFHTTP calls, and that
value should be shorter than your maximum template timeout. Then you can do
up to a couple of retries, but definitely limit that number. If it is
something important, you can always trigger an email if all tries timeout.
But be sure to keep a counter on that as well, so that you're not spamming
yourself.

Subject: [ACFUG Discuss] Error Handling for CFHTTP

I am doing some CFHTTP post to another server. It?s mostly working, but I
get an error, of course, whenever the remote server is inaccessible.

 

I know about CFTRY/CFCATCH, but I?m wondering about what?s the best practice
for handling this type of error.

 

1.       In CFCATCH, do I just try again? 

2.       Or, do I have to save the data and remember to re-submit it later?

3.       Is there a better way?

 

Thanks for any ideas!
