Key works for sandbox but not on my site

Steven Heynderickx 17 Jul 2010 15:37

Tsangk made a php script for me wich works on the sandbox, but not on my own site. I get the following error

Warning: file_get_contents(https://[e-mail]/xml-rpc-api.php) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.0 500 Internal Server Error in /customers/artizen.be/artizen.be/httpd.www/api/api-test.php on line 29

Edit
I read this [SOLVED Key applicability?] where a similar question was raised, but it gives not the answer, but it made me think to inform you more:

I try to add a page to a category that has a _template with a form. The site is public. Anonymous have edit rights.

It works in the sandbox but not on my site, I use identical _templates.

what could be the problem?

Are you sure you are calling the arguments correctly?

For my wiki, it would be:

<?php
createPage("kenneth","sandbox:_template","Testing...","API Test","","leave-blank-for-empty-values","tsangk","key.......");
?>

Tsang, the problem is the colon in the pagename. So we need to figuer out how to get a colon in to the pagename.

did you try creating pages with a category?

Got a couple of things mixed up
Uploading failed because when you upload to a form… the source should be exacly what is expected… meaning the structure of the fields and the data.
Uploading failed because I just entered some source. The minute I did the correct source, it worked fine.

OKAY that's cool. uploading to forms is perfectly possible! Huray!

Not so fast :-(
Even with the correct formatting of the fields and so… as soon as there is a _template I get the error. If I remove the _template, uploading is fine.

So work around is: temporary removing the template.
Does anybody else have the same experience?
BTW I am using a PHP script to upload

I believe you are the only one trying to save data forms at the moment. I am saving CSS pages, and it works with and without a live template.

Are you sure you are using the correct format? It should probably look something like this:

textlink: 'http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0131429019'
singlepixelimage: 'http://www.amazon.co.uk/ref=gno_logo'

review: 'Solid, sensible and enlightened advice on how to design and build software that is useful and maintainable. This book should be on every programmer''s bookshelf. Even if they do not program on Unix.'

That is http://soronlin-test.wikidot.com/books:the-art-of-unix-programming
You can get the above format by [[include]]ing a page containing a form.

Two things:

• I am quit sure (not 100% but 90%) that I am using that format, beeing: fieldname colon single quote value single quote.
• This makes me wonder how we will tackle the problem of values containing single quotes…

The silly thing is it works when there is no _template.
My (well it's tsangk's) code is PHP, shall I upload it here so you can see?

It wouldn't help; I don't speak PHP. I took one look at it and learned Python instead.

That's fieldname colon space single quote value single quote. The space character may be important.
Do not use Microsoft Word or any other word-processor to write the page, it may get clever about the single quote. It needs to be the right sort of single quote — an apostrophe, ASCII/Unicode character 39.

If you remove the live template, upload a page and replace the live template, does the page display correctly? If it does, then you have found a bug in the API.

Sounds like I found a bug

It looks like a bug to me too. What are the symptems? ie where and how does it fail when there is a live template in place?

This makes me wonder how we will tackle the problem of values containing single quotes…

There's a single quote in the review field in the example I posted. The answer is that you write two single quotes.
