Errors when Posting data to the HTTP Servelet.

Troubleshooting


Problem

Error 500: ; nested exception is: java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException when attempting to post a transaction to the Object Structure HTTP Servelet

Cause

This is caused when posting to a incorrect URL for the Servelet. These URLs are currently case sensitive.

This can also be caused by an incorrect service name in the message. This service name is also case sensitive.

Diagnosing The Problem

Resolving The Problem

Make sure that the URL for the Servelet is correct, the service name you are using must be in capital letters. For instance, if you were posting data to the MXINCIDENT Object Structure Servlet the URL must be:

http://<maximo_servername>/meaweb/os/MXINCIDENT

and the message must contain and Action/Service name in the following format - example is for a Create Action.

CreateMXINCIDENT

Again this is case sensitive.
