Calling REST Server Problem

Hi, i try to call a REST Server running on localhost, port 9999. Doing this with the browser works perfectly, doing this with rebol always results in error 403 forbidden. I know that there is no authentication needed for acessing the REST server. What i know is, that the server only accepts 'application/json' calls. I guess that is the real problem. How can i modify my http GET call to adress this problem? With curl the request should look like this : curl -H Accept:application/json http://localhost:9999/ Can anybody help?

Hello Graham, just another question. Is it possible to make a POST or a DELETE this way?? Perhaps you can provide a small example?? I am sorry if this is an really easy thing, but i am not too familiar with http protocol and webprogramming.

Hi Thorsten See http://rebol.wik.is/Protocols/Http <http://rebol.wik.is/Protocols/Http>which allows you to use PUT, DELETE etc On Wed, Sep 22, 2010 at 6:23 PM, Thorsten Moeller <tmoeller-fastmail.fm>wrote:

Hi Graham, i read that and tried various combinations but always ran into errors. It seems to be a problem for me to combine a POST command with the header command used in the example. This is the curl command i tried to build in rebol: curl -H Accept:application/json -X POST http://localhost:9999/node I have to ask another qestion. Is POST and PUT possible as the REST API i call treats them differently?? Kind regards Thorsten On Wed, 22 Sep 2010 18:45 +1200, "Graham Chiu" <compkarori-gmail.com> wrote:

Hi Thorsten Don't use the header word with read/custom and my modified protocol Try: read/custom URL compose [ POST (payload) [ content-type: "application/json" ]] guessing .... read/custom URL [ DELETE "" [ content-type: "application/json" ]] On Wed, Sep 22, 2010 at 8:13 PM, Thorsten Moeller <tmoeller-fastmail.fm>wrote:
