Trying to use sDictionary I got a series of errors:

  • Error #1:
Error:  0x80072EFE -
Source: WinHttp.WinHttpRequest
Description: The connection with the server was terminated abnormally

HelpFile: (null)
HelpContext: 0

Specifically: WaitForResponse

Line#
---> 1723: whr.WaitForResponse() 

Continue running the script?

Screen:



  • Error #2:
Error:  0x8000000A - The data necessary to complete this operation is not yet available.
Source: WinHttp.WinHttpRequest
Description: The data necessary to complete this operation is not yet available.

HelpFile: (null)
HelpContext: 0

Specifically: ResponseText

Line#
---> 1724: myJSON := whr.ResponseText

Continue running the script?

Screen:



  • Error #3:
Error:  0x80020101 -

Specifically: parse

Line#
---> 028: JSON_PARSE := JSON_INIT.parse(sJson)

Continue running the script?

This happens on Windows 8 x64 and I do not know where the problem lies- in my system, in sDictionary or in Merriram-Webster Collegiate Dictionary website.
