A message flow with TCPIP Server Input & Output Nodes always returns blank on the first response

  • 1.  A message flow with TCPIP Server Input & Output Nodes always returns blank on the first response

    Hi Fellow IBM ACE users,

    I have a quick question regarding the application, but let me share with you our setup first.

    Here is a simplified flow that we made, Instead of ClientOutput and ClientReceive nodes, We used a Java compute node to request to an external TCP Server (let's call that Xserver), it also handles the response that the server will return. 

    We used the PacketSender application to trigger/connect to the TCPIP Server Input. Every first request will respond with blank/null but the subsequent request will return the correct data (the response of Xserver that the Java node received)

    Here is the screenshot of the first response (highlighted row), but the subsequent request's responses returns the data (yellow rows)
