Hello,

I’m new to Zend and installed it in order to write some REST services.

I took your sample project, placed it into the Apache root folder for the Apache installed by Zend Server
C:\Program Files\Zend\Apache2\htdocs\ZendRestExample
and imported it into Zend Studio from there

But i’m not able to get the JSON or XML result from your sample

Below, I put the result for the different urls.

Could you please tell me what I’m doing wrong please ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Best regards,
Christophe

curl.exe http://localhost:8080/ZendRestExample/version

404 Not Found

Not Found
The requested URL /index.php was not found on this server.

=> KO

curl.exe http://localhost:8080/ZendRestExample/public/version
Success: trueVersion: 1.0

=> OK but the url is /public/version so different from your above article

curl.exe http://localhost:8080/ZendRestExample/public/version/format/json

Zend Framework Default Application

An error occurred
Page not found

=> KO

Hi, i have tried this script, and it works perfectly !
However I wanted to generate this xml response through a curl script….

I mean, users will get this xml response when they are authenticated in my site, and then they send request to the REST controller url, through a php curl script, for getting the xml output. How to achieve this?

dangtruog : Hi Chris Danielson, I’m newbie ZF, I have a question. Why we have theses code below: [code] $bootstrap = $this->getInvokeArg('bootstrap'); $options = $bootstrap->getOption('resources'); [/code] Where is used it on your code?

Nowhere actually, but shows nicely how to access your application.ini parameters.

My code is available for you to freely use and distribute. No limitations, just user beware, know what you are implementing and don’t blame me if you blow up your stack.

Chris

Excellent. That makes total sense in the Zend paradigm. Thanks for sharing!
