Quick, Is my HTTP-Bind working correctly?

Openfire Openfire Support

Hi:

I don’t think http bind works at all in version openfire:openfire_3_4_5. I am making a request body that looks like this:

<body hold=‘1’ xmlns=‘http://jabber.org/protocol/httpbind’ to=‘localhost:8080’ wait=‘300’ rid=‘162235’ newkey=‘a11b7ce9d202d8c89b1f360b62b3f0168f03edc7’ ver=‘1.6’ xmpp:xmlns=‘urn:xmpp:xbosh’ xmpp:version=‘1.0’/>

and getting an error:

java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 400 for URL: http://localhost:8080/http-bind/

When I look in the logs I see:

2008.02.12 14:20:16 Error parsing user request. http://127.0.0.1

When I look earlier in the log, it doesn’t look like the servlet is even being initialized. Please see attached warning log.

thanks

Hi Again:

I think that I overstated my case in the warn.log, please ignore it. I had tried to substitute the old web.xml to see if that alone would serve up resources from the resources/spank directory. When I put back the web.xml, I just get 2008.02.12 14:36:57 Error parsing user request. http://127.0.0.1. I am still stuck though, trying to use http bind.

thanks

Hi Again:

So I got openfire debugging in eclipse! I come to HttpBindServlet in doPost. I trace into the parsing of my request and I see “could not determine namespace bound to attribute prefix xmpp (position: START_DOCUMENT seen …26c093’ ver=‘1.6’ xmpp:xmlns=‘urn:xmpp:xbosh’ xmpp:version=‘1.0’/>… @1:211)” is the cause of my problem. It would have been nice if the e.cause.detailMessage had of been in the log. It appears that my request body is being formed incorrectly. I was using jsjac-1.2.2 in rhino to create my request. If I ever get this to work, I am going to add a client to my source tree, and submit it. This http-bind stuff seems to be a little tricky to get going.

<body hold=‘1’

xmlns=‘http://jabber.org/protocol/httpbind’ to=‘localhost:8080’

wait=‘300’ rid=‘162235’

newkey=‘a11b7ce9d202d8c89b1f360b62b3f0168f03edc7’ ver=‘1.6’

xmpp:xmlns=‘urn:xmpp:xbosh’ xmpp:version=‘1.0’/>

Column 211 is the end of the element. I guess that I will have to get looking at the spec.

thanks

Hi Again:

I finally got my http-bind to do the Romeo and Juliet example from the specs. Turns out that I needed a fix that BenV submitted for policy-violations on non-polling connections.

I found that I could test my javascript code using rhino and John

Resig’s env.js. I attached, to that other thread, the fixes that I made to env.js as well

as a slightly fixed crypt.js from jsjac and my own javascript code for my

HttpClientConnection.js and a test script BOSH.js that does the Romeo

and Juliet scene from the specifications. Hopefully this is as helpful

to someone else as BenV’s fixes were to me.

thanks

Rich
