Changing the IP status through IPAM API

Hi, hope anyone can help, first time using the IPAM API. Trying to test the ChangeIPStatus verb using Postman, please see details below:

POST localhost:17778/.../ChangeIPStatus

Content-Type:application/json

User-Agent:curl/7.20.0 (i386-pc-win32) libcurl/7.20.0 OpenSSL/0.9.8l zlib/1.2.3

Accept:*/*

Content-Length:27

..and on the body, I put:

[

"10.72.32.6",

"Reserved"

]

But I get a status 500 saying "Unexpected end of file. Following elements are not closed: item, root."

What could I be missing here? Thanks in advance.

Paulo

A 500 response code indicates that there is a problem on the Orion server, not a problem with the format of your request. I would recommend taking a look at the SWIS log file on the Orion server right after you execute the request:

C:\ProgramData\SolarWinds\InformationService\v3.0\Orion.InformationService.log

Do you see an error in that file? If so, the stack trace associated with the error message could provide some useful clues about what is going wrong.

Hello dan jagnow, thanks for responding. I'm getting repeating errors for the following:

Hi sirpaw, you can try following:

restart SolarWinds Information Service V3
wait for approx. 3 minutes
navigate to the same log file C:\ProgramData\SolarWinds\InformationService\v3.0\Orion.InformationService.log
try to find there Listening on net.tcp://localhost:17777/SolarWinds/InformationService/v3/Orion/Streamed/Certificate message
if you find it there, try to repeat your issue. But if it is not there, lets just find net.tcp://localhost:17777/SolarWinds/InformationService/v3/Orion/Streamed/Certificate message and somewhere around might be reason why it is not listening. It might be port not allowed in firewall or Net.Tcp Port Sharing Service is not doing it job or is stopped...

Regards,

Lubo
