Redmine

Can't reproduce, please give some details.

Ok, sorry...
I tested the REST API with the script you described here Rest_api_with_ruby. Then I get this error (only the relevant last snippet posted here):

2.3.5/lib/active_resource/formats/xml_format.rb:19:in `decode’

        <input checked="checked" id="cb_status_id" name="fields[]" onclick="toggle_filter('status_id');" type="checkbox" value="status_id" /> 
        <label for="cb_status_id">Status</label> 
    </td>... 

Perhaps some route is broken?
If I try to add an issue using the code from the ruby REST example the problem persists, although the issue gets added.

Can not reproduce with a fresh trunk.

Ok, I’ve just downloaded a fresh trunk and only did transfer the database without any plugins. This worked great.
And than I added all my plugins and of course as the last one I added the redmine_subtasks plugin. After adding
this the error appears. So it has something to do with the subtasks plugin and obviously not with redmine itself.
Sorry for bothering!

i'm experiencing the same problem with the subtasks plugin, and created a ticket for the plugin author at:

http://github.com/hron/redmine_subtasks/issues/#issue/20

Is there any workaround except uninstalling the plugin right now?

Robert, I just had a very succinct look, but I think you could get the xml view to work by just adding format.xml { render :layout => false } in the respond_to do |format| … end block in line 129 of app/controllers/issues_controller.rb in the plugin. That should yield the stock xml view, i.e. without any of the subtasks or anything. If you need those, you will need to copy app/views/issues/show.xml.builder to the plugin and tweak it to your liking.

thanks for your tip. i've tried what you suggested, but i still get the html instead of xml:

    <h2>Tickets</h2>

    <form action="/queries/new" id="query_form" method="post"><div style="margin:0;padding:0;display:inline"><input name="authenticity_token" type="hidden" value="LYC3qS9jT7MYS8+CgHjyiC4aOct+Vk6iUbkZInkUNSY=" /></div>

        <div id="query_form_content">
    <fieldset id="filters"><legend>Filter</legend>
    <script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
function add_filter() {
    select = $('add_filter_select');
    field = select.value
    Element.show('tr_' +  field);
    check_box = $('cb_' + field);
    check_box.checked = true;
    toggle_filter(field);
    select.selectedIndex = 0;

    for (i=0; i<select.options.length; i++) {
        if (select.options[i].value == field) {
            select.options[i].disabled = true;
        }    
    }
}

function toggle_filter(field) {
    check_box = $('cb_' + field);

    if (check_box.checked) {
        Element.show("operators_" + field);
        toggle_operator(field);
    } else {
        Element.hide("operators_" + field);
        Element.hide("div_values_" + field);
  }
}
...

the modified in issues_controller.rb looks like this now:

respond_to do |format|
      format.html { render :template => 'issues/show.rhtml',
                           :layout => !request.xhr? }
      format.atom { render :action => 'changes',
                           :layout => false,
                           :content_type => 'application/atom+xml' }
      format.pdf  { send_data(issue_to_pdf(@issue),
                              :type => 'application/pdf',
                              :filename => "#{@project.identifier}-#{@issue.id}.pdf") }
      format.xml { render :layout => false }
    end

i've tried to add "content_type => 'text/xml'", but that didn't work either.

Also, i've copied the show.xml.builder over to the plugin directory, which didn't help too.

Am i missing something?

Ah, just noticed what I posted above should fix the view of an individual issue, not of the ticket list, sorry :-) Anyway, /issue/6.xml should work, I'll have a look at the issue list later.

The issue list is a little trickier. Could you check if you can download the issue list as a pdf and/or csv?

pdf/csv/atom works fine. issues.xml returns html instead of xml.

Dang, I had hoped I had put my finger on the problem. I'm sorry but I have no ideas left short from installing everything in a test environment, which I don't have time to, you will have to wait for the plugin author to correct the problem.

no problem, thanks for your time anyway. not sure if the plugin author is working on issues right now.

i'm not a ruby developer myself, but there's one in our company. if he can find a quick and dirty workaround, i'll post it here.

FYI: I have the REST API enabled for demo.redmine.org so you can use that for testing. It's a fairly recent version of trunk with only a few basic plugins for managing the site.
