Hi Peter,
At first I thought the problem was only because DSpace is not returning XML.
Then found out, no HTTP header was being passed when requesting the URL in the
Drupal module. It looks like that want be our only problem.
Thank you for the clarification, we are going to update the module to import
data using REST.
Thank you all for your help.

Hi Hicham,
Princeton's Drupal module for DSpace is not compatible with the current version
of DSpace. The Drupal Module is designed to use the 2011 Google Summer of Code
REST API. The 2011 GSoC REST API was never merged into the core of DSpace,
instead a Jersey based REST API was built. So, the Drupal Module would need to
be updated to work with the new API.

You need to set the Accept HTTP header to tell the REST API which format you
want. From the command line you can do it like this:
$ curl -s -H Accept: application/xml http://localhost:8080/rest/communities
I'm not familiar with the DSpace module for Drupal though, so I'm not sure if
it allows you to configure request headers...

Hi,
I’m using a Drupal Module called DSpace, that requires a REST URL to return XML.
My problem is when I use the REST URL i.e.
(www.abcd.com/rest/communities/6/itemshttp://www.abcd.com/rest/communities/6/items),
into a browser I sometimes get JSON or XML, depending on the browser. Because
its returning a JSON, its causing the module not to work. So is there a way to
only get XML through http REST request?
We are using DSpace 5.2
Thank you,
Hicham
