REST API: 404 error on existing applications

Wowza Developer Dojo
1

Hi,

I upgraded my Wowza to 4.3 and started implementing REST API.

I do GET-request using REST API like: http://{SERVER}:{PORT}/v2/servers/defaultServer/vhosts/defaultVHost/applications/{app}

{app} can have a name like stream_cam_x5431a.

When i issue GET request to load current application data i get the following:

  • apps that have directory and own Application.xml in conf/ directory WORKS (if Application.xml is not from older Wowza),

  • apps that have global config via conf/Application.xml and have dirs in applications/ - gets 404 (but app works, stream is going on),

  • apps that have old config file and own DIR (from 3.x Wowza) gets 404 error.

Any clues? I consider there is a huge bug in REST API.

Hello Marcin

In response to your three scenarios:

  • apps that have directory and own Application.xml in conf/ directory WORKS (if Application.xml is not from older Wowza),

Great, this should be the case

  • apps that have global config via conf/Application.xml and have dirs in applications/ - gets 404 (but app works, stream is going on),

Currently this is by design. I have spoken with our engineering team and they will take another look to determine the feasibility of changing this reaction. There is no timeframe on this result, however.

  • apps that have old config file and own DIR (from 3.x Wowza) gets 404 error.

Currently old configurations are not supported.

Thanks,

Matt

Ok then - i have to reorganize my whole CDN to work with REST API. Too bad but i can live with it :slight_smile:
