Whenever I try to add the following endpoint, "http://ws.cdyne.com/phoneverify/phoneverify.asmx", during the Managed API setup process and press the Test button I get an error on the server. ERROR - APIProviderHostObject Error occurred while connecting to backend : "stackOverflow preventing me from showing this link", reason: Connect to ws.cdyne.com:80 timed out
When I try this exact same process on a machine outside of our proxy it works fine. I have gone into the axis2.xml file and added proxy information and even went as far as installing cntlm and setting the proxy to localhost - same error.
I can browse to the above link just fine on this machine.
My environment is Windows 10.
I assume you talk about clicking the Test button when providing Backend Endpoint in API publisher.
The way that Test button works at the moment (as far as I understand) is that it invokes HTTP HEAD method on the endpoint provided (because according to RFC 2616, "This method is often used for testing hypertext links for validity, accessibility, and recent modification.")
Then it checks response. If response is valid or 405 (method not allowed), then the URL is marked as Valid.
Thus sometimes, if backend is not properly following RFC, you might get otherwise working URLs declared as Invalid during the test because of that improper HEAD response evaluation. Obviously, this is just a check for your convenience and you can ignore the check if you know the endpoint works for the methods and resources you need it to work.
So my advice would be to try ignoring the Test and just finishing setting up and publishing the API.
P.S. I am checking it on WSO2 API Cloud but behavior is identical to downloadable API Manager.

Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in /var/www/maps/api/place/DeletePlace.php on line 42
The error means that the application you're testing tries to read some property from something not being an object.
If the behaviour can be reproduced using a real browser it indicates a bug in your application
If it happens only with JMeter and isn't reproducible with the browser you need to cross check the request JMeter sends using View Results Tree listener and the request the browser sends using "Network" tab of your browser developer tools - the requests must be exactly the same (apart from dynamic parameters which need to be correlated)
The most common mistake when it comes to API testing using JMeter is that people forget to add HTTP Header Manager and configure it to send a valid Content-Type header
Am trying to hit my rest API in spring boot with the embeded server configured through browser and postman, but the request doesn't hit the server and am getting 404-not found am pretty new to springboot , please help me in this as in what to check further so that i can test my rest API
This could be due to couple of reasons
Try the following
Ensure the port you are specifying is correct
Ensure the end point you are specifying exist
Ensure the request you are sending is of correct REST action type (GET,POST etc)
Ensure your controller class is available in the same package in which Application class (with #SpringBootAnnotation) exists, else you will have to use #ComponentScan to make sure your controller class is scanned and endpoints available to receive traffic
Most likely, above should help :) If not, you'll need to describe what is done in the application so far
I am working on ONOS Virtual Box instance version 3.0.3. I am unable to configure the Swagger auto generated API documentation using the standard uri http://>/v1/docs. I have been able to install POSTER extension and can do GET / HEADER method call using the REST API but getting an 405 method not allowed on PUT/ DELETE. Can anyone please help me enable DELETE/PUT methods in the ONOS instance.
ONOS supports those methods. if you get any faults it might be your client's fault.
besides you get 4xx http error and these kind of errors show that the problem is in the client side.

Follow previous link to do create loopback project named ibmsvt and do test locally, we can post and get.
then publish this api as running api app on bluemix and we will get api target url and tls file.
type url and tls in api designer invoke, and publish api product again.
check api connect service and we can find that published api product has been published, configure developer portal, and invite developers
login developer portal and register one app
subscribe app to api product and run post command.
We will see that we only get can't post error information...
Please see attachment info for error info and api file.
From the screen capture provided, it looks like you're displaying the logs for the loopback application deployed on bluemix. It also looks like the POST request from APIConnect hit the Bluemix application as well. However, I'm unable to see the exact message of the error. What error did you get when you execute the POST from APIConnect? I suspect the POST did not include the $(request.path), what did you change the invoke url to be ? Can provide the x-ibm-configuration section in your yaml file? It will be located in your /definitions.
Thanks and best regards,
I am just have the exact problem, and struggled for days on redoing the tutorial several times, but still met with the same problem until found the upper reply, and gave me a hint.
In the tutorial, it says like the following:
Update the following fields with the values you copied previously:
Invoke URL: Insert the API target URL. You must specify the secure protocol HTTPS. For example:
apiconnect-ca3283b0-525c-488d-993b-3ab72fca78d0.youremail-dev.apic.mybluemix.net
TLS Profile: Insert the API invoke tls-profile.
For example:
client:Loopback-client
The origininal URL is $(runtime-url)$(request.path)$(request.search).
And the correct URL after updating is like following:
https://apiconnect-ca3283b0-525c-488d-993b-3ab72fca78d0.youremail-dev.apic.mybluemix.net$(request.path)
no slash before $(request.path), and $(request.search) should be deleted.
I also checked a tutorial video, it also do like this, but the screen for this step is passed away very quickly, you will not pay attention to this detail normally.

Using WSO2 API Manager 1.3.1. Trying to use the API Manager to proxy to a REST service. I have set up the service in API Mgr and can successfully post and get responses, typically json, though some are text.
However, when I try to GET a resource that returns binary content (a zip "file", content-type:application/octet-stream), the API Manager does not seem to respond and I can see an error in the console window (i'm running wso2server.bat in console):
[2013-07-03 11:52:05,048] WARN - SourceHandler Connection time out
while writing the response: 173.21.1.22:1268->173.21.1.22:8280
I have an HTTPModule on my internal service and it seems to be responding with the appropriate content (I can see the GET and response data logged). I can also call to the internal service directly and get a response, so that end of things seems OK. But going through the API Manager seems to fail.
I found information on enabling other content-types:
WSO2 API Manager - Publishing API with non-XML response
http://wso2.com/library/articles/binary-relay-efficient-way-pass-both-xml-non-xml-content-through-apache-synapse
Using that information I tried to enable the application/octet-stream for messageFormatter and messageBuilder using the binary relay and it did not help (or seem to make a difference). I have even disabled all other content-types and use the binary relay for all content-types and it does not help.
Currently, I'm running with just the following in both axis2.xml and axis2_client.xml (in their appropriate sections):
<messageBuilder contentType=".*" class="org.wso2.carbon.relay.BinaryRelayBuilder"/
<messageFormatter contentType=".*" class="org.wso2.carbon.relay.ExpandingMessageFormatter"/>
I still get my json and text responses, but WSO2 times out getting the zip content. I saw the JIRA referenced in axis2.xml about enabling the ".*" relay, but as the other requests seem to work, I'm not sure it's an issue for me. I did try adding
'format="rest"' to the API definition, but it seemed to break all operations even the ones that worked prior so I've pulled it back out.
Any ideas on what is happening or how to dig in and debug this will help. Thanks!
After working with this for much too long, it turns out that my WSO2 configuration was correct, using the Message Relay and BinaryRelayBuilder, etc. While my REST service could reply immediately, I was setting a HTTP header that I assume WSO2 does not like, because when i removed it WSO2 would reply at an expected rate (instantly).
I was setting the header:
Transfer-Encoding: binary
When I removed that header from my service reply, then WSO2 operated as expected. I don't know if that's a "bug" in WSO2 or if I was implementing incorrectly, but I do have what seems like a "workaround" by omitting that header from my service response.
