Keyword search - format=xml returns error

[shikarishambu]

I am trying to get keyword search to return results as XML. I get the following error

<message>10030011 Wrapped Exception (with status template): 10030010 IO Error during processing of the template 'org/alfresco/repository/search/keywordsearch.get.xml.ftl'. Please contact your system administrator.</message> 
  <exception>org.alfresco.web.scripts.WebScriptException - 10030011 Wrapped Exception (with status template): 10030010 IO Error during processing of the template 'org/alfresco/repository/search/keywordsearch.get.xml.ftl'. Please contact your system administrator.</exception> 
  <callstack>java.io.FileNotFoundException: Template org/alfresco/repository/search/keywordsearch.get.xml.ftl not found.‍‍‍

Is XML a valid return format ? If yes, how do I rectify this error.

XML is not a default valid return type…

The output response can either be in HTML, ATOM or RSS.  The default output format is HTML

Although if you take a look at keywordsearch.get.rss.ftl,  you could easily take that template and create an XML one 'keywordsearch.get.xml.ftl'..  XML and RSS are very similar.

Thank you very much. I looked at the rss.ftl and a different xml.ftl to try create keywordsearch.xml.ftl.

Here is what I have

Any ideas why this error occurs or how to fix it.

TIA

[tonyc]

Try replacing..

<keywordsearch xmlnspensearch="http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1/" xmlns:atom="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">

with..

<keywordsearch>

And also add…

<url>/api/search/keyword.xml?q={searchTerms}&amp;p={startPage?}&amp;c={count?}&amp;l={language?}</url>
<url>/search/keyword.xml?q={searchTerms}&amp;p={startPage?}&amp;c={count?}&amp;l={language?}</url>
‍‍‍‍

to keywordsearch.get.desc.xml

Also make sure your xml template is named keywordsearch.get.xml.ftl

[shikarishambu]

thanks. I did all that. My keywordsearch.get.desc.xml and keywordsearch.get.xml.ftl are located in  Data Dictionary > Web Scripts Extensions > org > alfresco > repository > search

I have refreshed the web scripts. I still get the Read-Write error

They shouldn't be there… put them where the rest of the webscript resides. 

<TOMCAT_HOME>/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/templates/webscripts/org/alfresco/repository/search/

[shikarishambu]

Thanks. That seem to have solved that issue, though I sure don't understand why I have to put these files here. Per Alfresco documentation, it seems to me that Web Scripts Extension is the place to put modifications to webscripts/ new webscripts.

I now get a different error when I try to get the xml on the browser

The operation completed successfully. Error processing resource 'http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/api/search/keyword?…
