Things I missed:

  • The CA path and file do not need to be from a CA.  Put in the path to the file and the filename for the cert you get from your trading partner
  • The public key and private key MUST MATCH.  And they must be generated from the same ke…

Development suggested using tcp/ip rather than pdl.  This didn’t work either.

Support then indicated it was new config and to contact account rep for consulting services.

Using keytool I pulled the cert into the .jks file in /home/hci, but it still doesn’t seem to present the cert to the other side.

This is a client ssl connection – where the other side is expecting to receive their cert from us (that works with the cert file entry), then asks for our cert on our…Read more

I’ve created a TLS1.2 connection to AWS.  I’ve been given their cert and that gets loaded ok.  But the AWS side requests our cert and my side is not providing it (according to their logs).

These are both private certs.  I’ve specified mine in the private key and password sections, but I get the error that it is unable to load Private Key fr…Read more

In the end, we kept the logic and architecture the same and used the curl li…Read more

And now, the openssh libs of AIX don’t work with the Cloverleaf libs (Cloverleaf libs are newer).  So, I’m kind of suck.

All was well when I received a result pointer HL7 event and used the filename in the content to go pickup the file using an sftp call in a tcl routing script.

Then, we got secure messaging and I’m trying to use base functions to do the same thing.

The flow is:

However, you can always use Infor to setup your clustered environment – that has worked well for us to have the setup done and then we manage going forward.
We run AIX for Clover, and Windows for advanced security and global monitor – that works well.

I’ve tried the binary encoding on the thread, but then I can’t get authenticated…

I’ve forced binary by using curl option – CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER 1.

And it is transferring binary, but I’m getting 80,000 extra bytes added to the file….

And yes, there was a backup while the packets were sent.

And no, it was never my intent to send files that large.  We have one department that, from time to time, forgets to reduce the picture quality…Read more

You are right – the potential timing issues almost force this process into a more “batch-like” or decoupled process.

So I’m thinking  one process might be to receive the HL7 RP msg via TCP/IP and store that patient info and filename in a file.
The next process might pickup the patient-filename row from the file, match it to the PDF file and…Read more

In tcl you can use  set b64 [base64::decode $msg] to get the decoded base64 msg.

Once you have the .RTF file, I’m using a windows tool to convert .RTF to .TXT from http://www.ultrashareware.com/Ultra-PDF-To-Text-Converter.htm

I like this tool b/c it was inexpensive and I can run it in a batch mode.

I just set this up as a PDL/TCP with timeout set to 30 secs and with the 5.6 tpsmsgkill in place and it worked as I hoped / wanted.
I needed to do this b/c we’re throwing away msgs after 3 tries with the current setup on some threads.
