Hello We have a SAS environment in which users/processes send an https post request to the SAS web Application Server. The server sends the response back. This typically takes a few milliseconds to complete. Please note that  users/processes sending the requests do not use SAS and therefore proc http is not used.. However some times the sending user/process does not receive a response. The blame comes on SAS. I conducted tests using Apache JMETER and I do see that few such request indeed fail to get a response. Wondering if I can get the SAS Web Application Server output the requests received and the response sent to a log file may be catalina.out or server.log. That way one can verify if the call has been lost in transit (network delays etc.) or the issue is with SAS. Tried using tcpdump, But with encrypted traffic cannot decode the contents.(It works with http requesst). We are using SAS 9.4 M4 on RHEL6.   ... View more
