Hi Don, Although this should work in Fedora 3.3, the REST API in Fedora 3.1 didn't support a mimeType parameter...it always used the one that was in the request header.
Compare: http://fedora-commons.org/documentation/3.1/Fedora%20REST%20API.html to: http://www.fedora-commons.org/confluence/display/FCR30/REST+API#RESTAPI-addDatastream If you can't upgrade to 3.3, you might try avoiding libcurl and do it directly: http://netevil.org/blog/2006/nov/http-post-from-php-without-curl ...not sure how relevant that is these days, and I'm far from php-savvy, but it may be worth a shot. - Chris On Wed, Mar 3, 2010 at 2:27 PM, Don Gourley <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks Jason, I have tried that and the datastreamVersion I got was: > > <foxml:datastreamVersion ID="dctst.4" LABEL="Test Modify" > CREATED="2010-03-01T20:14:28.119Z" > MIMETYPE="text/xml;boundary=----------------------------48598ac9f1c5"> > > and I also got the boundary and some header stuff mixed in to the top > of the datastream.
