Troubleshooting POST Request

[MaddBomber83]

Hello;

 

I have a device on my network that responds to REST requests.

 

Using the Advanced Rest Client Chrome Extention I'm able to get things working properly.

 

Using the ISY's interface, I can not get it to work.

 

 

In Chrome:

https://IP_Address

/config.php

 

Authorization: Basic randomeLETTERSandNUMBERS

Body: setsysload=9

 

Request headers

Doing it in ISY I just get a request failed.

 

Now, if I change it to HTTP in isy I get a resource moved; which is correct as you get a permanent redirect to the HTTPS address.

 

Any idea on how to troubleshoot further?

Was the certificate on your lighttpd HTTPS server issued by a well known (paid) CA like Thawte or Verisign? If not, your probably running into a certificate trust issue.

 

You can relax the SSL client settings in ISY Dashboard, but it would be better to have a SSL cert on your Lighttpd server that's trusted by ISY. Either that, or exempt your ISY from the SSL redirect....

I'll have to look into this a bit more then. When I hit manage certificates on ISY it just brings me to PDF that I'll have to read later.

 

As for certificats I use CAcert.org for mine. But this particular piece of equipment does not have a very good interface.

[MWareman]

Make sure you are using the Dashboard (correct version for your running code version) to manage certificates - not the admin console or the http interface.

To run the dashboard, try this link if you are running 4.2.3: http://isy.universal-devices.com/994i/4 ... board.jnlp

I'm not sure that I fully understand the exchange in the OP but it looks like there may be a session cookie involved which I believe is not supported by the ISY.
