[libRETS-users] Strange Error

[Bill Linker]

It looks like field 290 is the status field which is usually a lookup.
For a lookup, you use a different operator than "=". Instead use "=|".

Maybe it could be something else then.

This is the request from RETS Connector:
URI:
/Search.asmx/Search?SearchType=Property&Class=1&Select=217&Format=COMPAC
T&Qu
eryType=DMQL2&Query=(290=%7CACT),(40=%7C440)

This is the request from libRets:
URI:
/Search.asmx/Search?Class=1&Count=1&Format=COMPACT&Query=(290%3dACT),(40
%3d4
40)&QueryType=DMQL2&SearchType=Property&Select=217&StandardNames=0

Does this tell you anything that I might be missing?

Thanks,
Russ

You need to do that to properly encode the query in URL encoding.  There
isn't a way to turn that off, as it breaks HTTP query/posts, if I
remember
correctly.

That's an interesting bug on their server.  We really don't have a work
around for that without recompiling libRETS.  I'd complain to the
vendor.

Maybe Mark Klien and I will think about putting in a workaround for
this.
"Look at RetsSession, why does it have 50,000 methods?  Work arounds for
each RETS server!"  I'm really trying to avoid that.
