Hello all,

I just installed the fcrepo-camel 4.4.1 and toolbox-features 4.5.0 (thank you Aaron Coburn et al.!) into Karaf. I am getting an odd error when I try to POST to the fcrepo-reindexing route's REST endpoint:

$ curl -XPOST http://fcrepodev.lib.umd.edu:9080/reindexing -H'Content-Type: application/json' -d '["activemq:queue:solr.reindex"]'
java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol: /reindexing
	at java.net.URL.<init>(URL.java:586)
	at java.net.URL.<init>(URL.java:483)
	at java.net.URL.<init>(URL.java:432)
	at org.fcrepo.camel.reindexing.RestProcessor.process(RestProcessor.java:59)

[snipped rest of stack trace]

If I try appending a specific path after the "/reindexing", I just get a 404:

$ curl -XPOST http://fcrepodev.lib.umd.edu:9080/reindexing/tmp -H'Content-Type: application/json' -d '["activemq:queue:solr.reindex"]'
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
<title>Error 404 Not Found</title>
</head>
<body><h2>HTTP ERROR 404</h2>
<p>Problem accessing /reindexing/tmp. Reason:
<pre>    Not Found</pre></p><hr><i><small>Powered by Jetty://</small></i><hr/>

</body>
</html>

I also noticed that this version of the reindexer is binding to the host's external IP address rather than to localhost as I remember it doing before. I don't know if that is connected to the MalformedURLException.

Has anyone else run into this?

Thanks,

Andrew Woods

Hello Peter,

I see the same behavior.

Hello Peter,
Sure enough, this is an error with how the reindexing mechanism binds to an HTTP endpoint. I have a issued a fix for this, and once it goes through a review, I can issue a patch release for fcrepo-camel-toolbox.

Thanks for reporting this!
Aaron

Hi Aaron,

Thanks for the quick turnaround on this fix. I just got 4.5.1 installed (using camel 2.16.2 and activemq 5.13.2) and reindexing is working again!
