Resources["ContentLoaderFunctions"].PostXML status 204 NullPointerException

[christianb1]

Hi,

I need to call a REST webservice what response with status 204. If I test my thing's service what is calling the remote API the Resources["ContentLoaderFunctions"].PostXML causes Wrapped java.lang.NullPointerException Cause: null

Is this because the response must not include content when status 204 is returned whilst PostXML expects content? Is there any workaround?

Best regards

Christian

Are you able to successfully do the POST with something like Postman?

If so, what does the call look like?

I have no issues with Postman, here is post request:

POST /v2/devices/00:11:22:33:44:55/configurations.xml?componentId=com.eurotech.framework.protocol.pcn2.impl.PcnServiceImpl HTTP/1.1

Host: api-sandbox.everyware-cloud.com

Authorization: Basic ZYXwvtsrqponmLKJIHgfedcba012345678904223

Content-Type: application/xml

Cache-Control: no-cache

Postman-Token: +++++++-++++-++++-++++-++++++++++++

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>

<esf:configurations>

...// xml to post

</esf:configurations>

and response:

204 No Content

I can pm you the original request, if needed.

The issue was solved with a try/catch loop to handle (gracefully ignore) the exception.
