Hi folks,
I've been trying to implement a simple REST-style API using the Mark
Logic HTTP server and an XQuery controller. This has been going fairly
well; but I've hit a bit of a brick wall with the DELETE method:
I have my HTTP server set up with authentication: "application-level"
and default user: "admin", in order to effectively turn off security
(I'm just doing some prototypying here).
When I submit a DELETE request to the server I get a "500 Internal
Server Error" response code, with this message:
SEC-DEFAULTUSERDNE: Default user does not exist: sec:user-id =
7561169777825101503
GET and POST requests are working fine, by the way. I haven't tried the
PUT method yet.
To try and get around this, I turned security on by setting
authentication to "basic", and sending the username and password
credentials to the server. I then get:
403 Forbidden
There is no clue as to why the request has been denied. Does this
basically mean that the "DELETE" method isn't supported? I tried to
test this assumption by doing an "OPTIONS" request, which predictably
gave me:
405 Method Not Allowed
Any help or clues on this would be much appreciated.
Many thanks,
-Steve
