Invalid requests for viewing transfer status
When you are submitting a request through the Web Gateway to view the status of a file transfer, you might receive an HTTP error code and a WebSphere® MQ File Transfer Edition error message. The following example shows the result of requesting the status of an invalid transfer ID.
- This HTTP request submits a transfer ID which has been truncated:
GET HTTP/1.1 /transfer/414d51204d554e474f2 Host: example.com User-Agent: mozilla
- The Web Gateway returns an HTTP response with the following format:
HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request Server: WAS/6.0 Content-length: 64 Content-type: text/plain BFGWI0022E: The supplied transfer ID did not have a length of 48 characters. This is not a valid transfer ID.
If you receive an HTTP response with a status code other than 200, see the HTTP Response Codes topic for more information.
