Error status code -2 on http GET

Hi

Been trying all day to work this out. I keep getting an error status code -2 when calling a http GET

Code:

#include <ArduinoHttpClient.h>
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Ethernet.h>

// Enter a MAC address for your controller below.
// Newer Ethernet shields have a MAC address printed on a sticker on the shield
byte mac[] = {0xDE, 0xAD, 0xBE, 0xEF, 0xFE, 0xED};

// Set the static IP address to use if the DHCP fails to assign
IPAddress ip(xx, xxx, xxx, xxx);
IPAddress myDns(xx, xxx, xxx, x);

char serverAddress[] = "http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com"; // server address
int port = 80;

EthernetClient EthClient;
HttpClient client = HttpClient(EthClient, serverAddress, port);

void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(9600);
  Serial.println("Serial Started");
  // start the Ethernet connection:

  Serial.println("Initialize Ethernet with DHCP:");
  if (Ethernet.begin(mac) == 0)
  {
    Serial.println("Failed to configure Ethernet using DHCP");
    // Check for Ethernet hardware present
    if (Ethernet.hardwareStatus() == EthernetNoHardware)
    {
      Serial.println("Ethernet shield was not found.  Sorry, can't run without hardware. :(");
      while (true)
      {
        delay(1); // do nothing, no point running without Ethernet hardware
      }
    }
    if (Ethernet.linkStatus() == LinkOFF)
    {
      Serial.println("Ethernet cable is not connected.");
    }
    // try to congifure using IP address instead of DHCP:
    Ethernet.begin(mac, ip, myDns);
  }
  else
  {
    Serial.print("  DHCP assigned IP ");
    Serial.println(Ethernet.localIP());
  }
}
void loop()
{
  Serial.println("making GET request");
  client.get("/comments?id=10");

  // read the status code and body of the response
  int statusCode = client.responseStatusCode();

  Serial.print("Status code: ");
  Serial.println(statusCode);

  String response = client.responseBody();
  Serial.print("Response: ");
  Serial.println(response);
  Serial.println("Wait five seconds");
  delay(5000);
}

Any help much appreciated!
Thanks

Post the exact serial output you get!
