I am attempting to add a collection, and am getting a 405 Method Not Allowed error. DSpace 6.3. Thanks in advance for any suggestions! --Paul
In the output below, note the line: < Allow: DELETE,GET,OPTIONS,PUT POST is not on the list! Why? According to the documentation, creation of a collection uses a POST request. https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSDOC6x/REST+API#RESTAPI-Communities Here is the server output: * Trying 127.0.0.1... % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 0* Connected to 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) port 8345 (#0) > POST /rest/communities/cb69484b-1669-4832-b0aa-8acb902db531 HTTP/1.1 > User-Agent: curl/7.37.0 > Host: 127.0.0.1:8345 > Accept: */* > Cookie: JSESSIONID=1041D8EFC72B7F930B6D3363406220FA > Content-Type: application/json > Content-Length: 526 > } [data not shown] * upload completely sent off: 526 out of 526 bytes < HTTP/1.1 405 < Allow: DELETE,GET,OPTIONS,PUT < Content-Type: text/html;charset=utf-8 < Content-Language: en < Content-Length: 1090 < Date: Fri, 06 Dec 2019 08:45:03 GMT < { [data not shown] 100 1616 100 1090 100 526 334k 161k --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 532k * Connection #0 to host 127.0.0.1 left intact <!doctype html><html lang="en"><head><title>HTTP Status 405 – Method Not Allowed</title><style type="text/css">h1 {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;font-size:22px;} h2 {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;font-size:16px;} h3 {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;font-size:14px;} body {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:black;background-color:white;} b {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;} p {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;background:white;color:black;font-size:12px;} a {color:black;} a.name {color:black;} .line {height:1px;background-color:#525D76;border:none;}</style></head><body><h1>HTTP Status 405 – Method Not Allowed</h1><hr class="line" /><p><b>Type</b> Status Report</p><p><b>Message</b> Method Not Allowed</p><p><b>Description</b> The method received in the request-line is known by the origin server but not supported by the target resource.</p><hr class="line" /><h3>Apache Tomcat/8.5.20</h3></body></html> In anticipation of possible questions, here is the way I make the REST call: I allow Tomcat access only on localhost, and my script is on the same machine.
