Question

problem loading xml file with POST on IIS

Hi All,

I am trying to load the xml file with URLLoader, with URLRequest set to use POST method.

The xml file gets loaded fine when I host my application on tomcat. But, on IIS, it gives Error #2032.

When I changed method to GET, it worked with IIS too.

Can anybody please highlight why it is not working with POST on IIS.

Thanks in advance!

Well, there could be many reasons causing this issue. If you can give us more information, it would be helpful:

What is the IIS version?

What is O.S

Is the O.S "HOME" edition or "PROFESSIONAL"?

Are you running as a POWER USER, USER, or ADMINSTRATOR?

Is the IIS running local machine or on a server?

Have you tried any other machine with IIS and if you have are you still getting the same issue?

Perhaps IIS is set to only server "GET" method (Just a thought)

If I am not mistake, "GET" method is a 4k limit (it has been such a longtime, I could be wrong, please do Google it) so if you load a XML file, and if this file is more than 4k then it would be an instant issue.

Thanks.

Hello Sneha,

I have not worked with IIS in a long time, however, I do remember there was some setting with regards to enabling the http methods such as (GET/POST). Have a look at this:

I will do further reasearch and get back to you.

Thanks.
