Seems to be working fine on http://playground.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Aaron Maybe there was a problem specifically on 6.2RC1 (BTW better use some final releases…:)). I’d recommend 6.4.5 for the 6.x cycle. Thanks -Vincent On 15 Sep 2015 at 18:53:16, Aaron Hardy at AC ([email protected]) wrote: Page syntax is XWiki 2.1 and the velocity is wrapped. Sorry, I didn't include the full code for simplicity's sake. Here's a minimal example cut and pasted from the editor (only thing changed is the actual URL): ******************************* {{velocity}} #set($getURL = "https://www.example.com/api/example.mhtml?param=123") $getURL #set($content = $xwiki.getURLContent($getURL)) $content {{/velocity}} If I set $getURL to "https://google.com", it prints $content to the page. With my API URL, I get nothing but the link in $getURL. But if I follow that link, I get the expected XML page from the API, so I know the URL is working correctly. I figured it was because $content is XML from the API, and HTML from google, but using $services.xml.parse on the response doesn't work either. The strange part is that this is code that I haven't touched in quite some time, and used to be working. The full code parses the XML response and saves various elements to an HTML table on the page - but it doesn't appear to be getting that far.

XWiki 6.2RC1. I have some velocity code using getURLContent() to access an external API that appears to not be working after a server move, despite working in the past.
Something like this used to work:
***************************** #set($url = "https://www.example.com/api/example.mhtml?param=123") #set($response = $xwiki.getURLContent($url))
#if ($response) #set($tags = $services.xml.parse($response).getElementsByTagName('TAG')) $tags.length #end *****************************
Now, $response appears to be empty (nothing appears when written to the page). Going directly to the API URL returns properly formatted XML, so I know the API itself is working. And changing $url to http://google.com also returns data.
Any ideas?
What is the syntax of your page? Are you sure it’s XWiki Syntax 2.0+ and you’re wrapping the velocity content with the {{velocity}} macro for example (you didn’t show it in your example). $response is still there Thanks -Vincent
