Hi,
I have a problem with the HTTP implementation of the PEAR package:
I try to PUT an XML instance to an XML database (eXist), but it always
puts a binary:
<?php
require_once "HTTP/Request.php";
$URL = 'http://ap34.ifi.inform atik.uni-goettingen.de:8 081/exist/servlet/db/may/hamlet.xml';
$req =& new HTTP_Request("" );
$req->setBasicAuth($ user, $passwd);
$req->setURL($URL) ;
$req->setMethod("PUT ");
$req->addHeader("Con tent-Type", "text/xml");
$req->addFile("hamle t.xml","/home/may/public_html/PHP/hamlet.xml", "text/xml");
$response = $req->sendRequest( );
?>
When looking into the database, there is also not the XML file, but
there is a complete HTTP request:
***
--HTTP_Request_f4 2cc34621bc820ec d46b8f6ef61eb7e
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="hamlet.xm l"; filename="hamle t.xml"
Content-Type: text/xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE PLAY SYSTEM "play.dtd">
<PLAY>
<TITLE>The Tragedy of Hamlet, Prince of Denmark</TITLE>
etc.
****
It seems not ot be a problem of the database, since it works well when doing
the same with python (a sample that is included into the documentation of eXist),
i.e., tha database work correctly when it receives a correct PUT.
Can anybody give me an example how HTTP PUT is applied correctly with PEAR?
THX,

That is the way to send files with POST. PUT is different.
I do not use PEAR classes, so I can't tell you if it can do what you
want. I use this other HTTP client class that lets you send HTTP
requests with arbitrary bodies: http://www.phpclasses.org/httpclient

PUT is much simpler because you just add the file to the request body.

No, you just set the RequestMethod argument to PUT and pass file data to
the the Body request argument. Take a look at the test_http_soap. php
example for a demonstration.

I wanted to use these things in a course, but the results up to now

similar, but different classes for the same things, with too less
documentation.

You just have to specify the URL like you do with a browser:
http://user:pa******@www.domain.com/uri/etc/

Right, but sometimes developers do not find enough time to produce
proper documentation. Many PEAR packages do not have proper documentation.
At least with this class you have many examples with comments in English
from which you can learn. No, you just set the RequestMethod argument to PUT and pass file data to
the the Body request argument. Take a look at the test_http_soap. php
example for a demonstration.

I don't think that as to do with PHP but rather with the fact that it
takes a lot of time to produce documentation. Since this is free
software it is hard to justify the time that it takes. Some developers
try to do it sooner rather than later, but that is not a specific
problem of PHP.

No, with specifying "ContentType='t ext/xml'" I would expect that it
puts it as XML, not as a binary. When putting it as a binary, the XML
database system does not recognize it. The same thing works
well, when doing HTTP PUT by python or Java, so the problem is not due
to the receiving system.

I think you are confused. The class from http://www.phpclasses.org/httpclient does support that when you call
GetRequestArgum ents function and it does not come with documentation.
Are you sure you are seeing the same class? $url="...";

And what message appears when you do HTTP PUT with Python or Java?
Another thing that is odd is the httpclient class handles chunked
transfer encoding correctly, so you should not see those hexadecimal
charcters (2b 0) in the response. Are you sure that is the same
response that is returned when you use the httpclient class or that is
the response when using the PEAR class?
