The XML-RPC server I am trying to communicate with requires that each request contains the following in the first line of the HTTP header: 

POST /Air HTTP/1.1

however the following code we used,

urlc = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
urlc.setConnectTimeout(180000);
urlc.addRequestProperty("User-Agent", "AVAYA/3.1/1.0");
urlc.addRequestProperty("Authorization","Basic QXZheWE6QXZheWE=");
urlc.addRequestProperty("Content-type", "text/xml");
urlc.setDoOutput(true);
urlc.setRequestMethod("POST");

which results in....

POST HTTP/1.1
User-Agent: Avaya/3.1/1.0
Authorization: Basic QXZheWE6QXZheWE=
Content-type: text/xml

i.e. without the "/Air" bit.

Please help us in modifying the POST header

  • @BrianRoach I understand that. I wasn't sure if you could modify the POST HTTP/1.1 through Java HttpURLConnection. Apparently, I guess you can. – Steve P. May 08 '13 at 19:50
  • It wouldn't be very good at HTTP if you couldn't specify an URL ... – Brian Roach May 08 '13 at 20:19

Make sure the "/Air" part is included in your url. Currently it's not.
