Web Socket (HTTP/SSL) Error 22

General
1

I am receiving an error 22 when i try to initiate a web socket post (http or ssl TLS 1.0) sometimes. I am sure I get it and I even put some retry code in which finally connects the socket after 7 attempts. My question is what causes an Error 22? I have found limited prior threads that actually explain it.

Thank you much in advance.

22 is usually invalid argument
It could be almost anything

Ah ok… Weird as it works after a bunch or retries. Norman what would you use to troubleshoot at this point? Watch the response headers?

Good question since 22 is a OS API error and not one of ours
You say a “web socket post” but is thing in a web app or desktop or ?

Thanks for the replies Norman. This is an OS X desktop project doing an https tls JSON-RPC post. Thanks!!
