New subject: [xwiki-users] help on sample of using RestFul API to create new page in a xwiki

21 Apr 2014

Could anyone can share a exmaple of how to using httpClient 4.3 to put a
new page int to a xwiki.
I've tried could of times, but failed. All the examples are not with
httpClient 4.3.
I got error like 401, not authenticated, or 500,HTTP/1.1 500 Internal
Server Error
