Getting error 42 with datasocket

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi Folks,

 

I'm getting erro 42 with a simple datasocket read to a local network connection "http://172.27.72.70/versions", I can query other webpages such as www.google.com.   Any idea what I need to append to the front of this URL to get this to work?

 

I saw this http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/27272FE3A32C334286257612004D9153

 

I don't know what this means:

"To work around this issue, you will need to append [text] to the URL wired to yourDataSocket Read.vi.  "

 

Chrome for example can display the info using the same command.

 

Any ideas?

I usually find that the workaround means exactly what it says.  Change the connection string to:

http://172.27.72.70/versions [text]
