[rabbitmq-discuss] Http API: new user

Mon Aug 26 12:10:20 BST 2013

Yes, the message "Error: bad_request, Reason: not_json" is the response of the server. This message:

	=ERROR REPORT==== 26-Aug-2013::08:44:04 ===
 	webmachine error: path="/api/users/newUser"
	"Bad Request"

Is in the logs of RabbitMQ.

I'm using CURL/7.31.0 on windows (windows 7 or windows server 2008, the same results).

This others calls works well:

	curl -i -u guest:guest http://localhost:15672/api/vhosts

	curl -i -v -u guest:guest -H "content-type:application/json" http://localhost:15672/api/users

But I have the same problem with this:

	curl -i -u guest:guest -H "content-type:application/json" -XPUT -d'{"type":"direct","auto_delete":false,"durable":true,"arguments":[]}' http://localhost:15672/api/exchanges/%2f/my-new-exchange

The Rabbit admin works well too.

Thank you!

I thought you said it complained with "Error: bad_request, Reason: 
not_json"?

What version of curl are you running? And on what O/S?

Do other calls to the management API work? Does the management UI work? 
Does rabbitmqadmin work?
