Autodesk MapGuide Enterprise

[#1]

Hi All, has anyone tried a PUT with XML with GeoRest with AIMS 2013?

I am getting an "Update Done" with a responseText but the data actually isn't updating.

Any clues? I am using IIS 7.5

Steps to reproduce:

1. Modify the existing restcfg.xml in the C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Autodesk Infrastructure Web Server Extension 2013\www\GeoREST\conf\Sheboygan\Property\ folder to (A) point to AIMS and (B) Make XML editable:

<Resource uripart="property">
<Source type="MapGuide">
<FeatureSource>Library://Samples/Sheboygan/Data/Parcels.FeatureSource</FeatureSource>
<FeatureClass>SHP_Schemaarcels</FeatureClass>
<ServerIp>127.0.0.1</ServerIp>
<ServerPort>2802</ServerPort>
</Source>

<Representation renderer="JSON" pattern=".json"/>
<Representation renderer="XML" pattern=".xml">
<Method name="GET" />
<Method name="PUT" />
<Method name="POST" />
<Method name="DELETE" />
</Representation>

2. Restart IIS to refresh the Config in GeoRest 

3. Test the site to make sure you can see the parcel data:

4. Now write the PUT code to change the RACRE from 14.25 to 500

<script language=javascript>

var xml='<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?><FeatureSet><Features><Feature>';
xml=xml+ '<Property><Name>RACRE</Name>';
xml=xml+ '<Value>500</Value></Property>';
xml=xml+ '</Feature></Features></FeatureSet>';

var xmlhttp;
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
{
xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function(evt)
{
if(this.readyState == 4)
{
alert(this.responseText);
}
};
xmlhttp.open("PUT",'http://localhost/rest/data/property/1.xml',true);
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-Type","application/xml; charset=UTF-8");
xmlhttp.send(xml);
}
</script>

This returns "Update Done" but the data actually does not update (this worked with MG2011)

Aha!  You need to remove the read-only tag - unfortunately, you have to install MapGuide Maestro because there is not an option (at least I can't find it) in Autodesk Infrastructure Studio 2013 to remove this flag from the Datasource.
