Some servers require additional headers in the request. What I usually do
in this case is fire up WireShark (free), do the submission from the PC,
check the logs in Wireshark, and then emulate the same thing from my RPG
code.

I am using Scott's HTTP Api to attempt to write to a Rest Server.

In all the previous projects that I have done using this api, the targets
where outside the company servers but this server was created by a
consultant and he tells me that it is a Rest Server.

I am using the HTTP_Url_Get_XML to send the following

http://cre-freitrater:8080/cre_freitrater/rest/freitrater/1

The request chain that is being sent to it looks like the following:

GET /cre_freitrater/rest/freitrater/1 HTTP/1.1 Host: cre-freitrater:8080
User-Agent: http-api/1.23

I am getting back a 500 response saying that there was an internal server
error.

I can type the same string (the first string) into the browser and it runs
without a hitch.

This is probably a Scott question but what has to be done different for
REST
server than a regular HTTP server?. According to what I have read it just
uses regular HTTP protocols.

Can anyone point me to an article on writing a Rest Client in RPG?

Any help would be appreciated.
