Re: How to get more information about error code 7

Hello Jason,

Thanks for the reply. This Curl error 7 is happening intermittently, so yes
I am able to connect to the server using the command line tool.
Therefore, in case if this happens again in future, I want my application
to display more error messages than just Curl error 7, which is why I am
wondering if there is a way to add debugging log from openssl in libcurl.

Best,
