Archived Forum PostQuestion:
I found a bug in the active x http component. When I create a request object for HEAD and PUT requests the component is adding 4 additional spaces to the end of the path string.
Here is my vb6 code.
Function CheckContainer(ID As Long, Y As Single, M As Single, tContainer As String) As String
Dim Container As String
Dim oResp As CHILKATHTTPLib.ChilkatHttpResponse
Dim oReq As New CHILKATHTTPLib.ChilkatHttpRequest
Dim I As Single
Static ErrCount As Single
'XML Snippet attached
Container = xApp.ChilkatPath("HTTP|BaseContainer|*")
Container = Replace(Container, "~~Year~~", Y)
Container = Replace(Container, "~~AgencyID~~", ID)
Container = Replace(Container, "~~Month~~", M)
Debug.Print Len(Container) 'Returns 21
Debug.Print Container 'Returns IssueArchive-1-2013-4
Container = Trim(Container)
Debug.Print Len(Container) 'Returns 21
With oReq
.HttpVerb = "HEAD"
.ContentType = ""
.AddHeader "Host", "storage.clouddrive.com"
.AddHeader "X-Auth-Token", RS_AuthToken
.Path = RS_StorageURL & "/" & Container
End With
oHttp.SessionLogFilename = "C:\oHttp_Log_head.txt"
Set oResp = oHttp.SynchronousRequest(RS_Server, 443, 1, oReq)
If Not oResp Is Nothing Then Exit For
Select Case oResp.StatusCode
Case 201
Debug.Print oResp.Header
Case 204 'Exists
CheckContainer = Container
Case 404 'Not Found
oReq.Path = RS_StorageURL & "/" & Container
oReq.HttpVerb = "PUT"
oReq.ContentType = "text/plain"
Set oResp = oHttp.SynchronousRequest(RS_Server, 443, 1, oReq)
If oResp.StatusCode = 201 Then 'Created
CheckContainer = Container
Else
Stop
End If
Case Else
Debug.Print "Response Status"
Debug.Print oResp.StatusCode
Debug.Print "Response Headers"
Debug.Print oResp.Header
Stop
End Select
Set oReq = Nothing
Set oResp = Nothing
End Function
Here is the HTTP Log, you will see the %20 for each space that was added

Update: Here is the .LastErrorText, in my debug window I see the 4 spaces. Here if you highlight the line for the path, you will the extra spaces.

My guess is that you're setting the HttpRequest.Path property equal to a string that ends in 4 SPACE chars. This would explain the problem. Verify the exact string use to set oReq.Path.
In other words, this line of code is probably the problem:
.Path = RS_StorageURL & "/" & Container
I suspect Container is a string that ends in 4 SPACE chars.
Erik, I found the problem -- and it only affects the ActiveX implementation. I'll have a fix this weekend.
