Hi,I'm trying to call a webscript within the Share tier from an external source. If I call the script from a browser (i.e http://localhost:8080/share/service/components/dashlets/my-create-projects)the script works fine, however if I try to call it from curl or a java program I get HTTP 500 status.He

Thanks to Mike Hatfield for solving this!

Mike Hatfield commented on ALF-2808:
————————————
It's a "feature" of Spring 3 - make sure you pass accept-charset and accept-language when using curl.
–header "Accept-Charset:ISO-8859-1,utf-8" –header "Accept-Language:en"

Ive added the header in my java program still i am not able to run my share webscript


String url = "http://localhost:8080/share/page/modules/custom-site?sitePreset=site-dashboard&shortName=test17";
HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet(url);
         httpGet.setHeader("Accept-Charset","utf-8");
         httpGet.setHeader("Accept-Language","en");
         HttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(httpGet);
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

which gives the error :-

Hi,
Just in case anyone discovers this thread in relation to the failure of accessing RSS feeds in 3.3g from an application, the suggestions described above for setting the properties in an HttpURLConnection:

urlConnection.setRequestProperty("Accept-Charset","utf-8");
urlConnection.setRequestProperty("Accept-Language","en");

did the trick for me. I spent a good amount of time trying to track this down in my code until I realized the Tomcat log would give me the clue. (-:
