Erlang HTTP: How do you include Body in an Inets or Ibrowse request?

Question

I am currently using Inets with the following request:

http:request(put, {Url, [{"User-Agent", UA}, {"Content-type", 
             "application/json"}]}, Bodytext, []),

But the request fails.

Any suggestions?

did you call `inets:start().` ? – tonio Jun 23 '10 at 16:21 — tonio, Jun 23 '10 at 16:21

ibrowse:start().

ibrowse:send_req(Url, Headers, put, Body).

OR

ibrowse:send_req(Url, Headers, put, Body, Options).

Try this: http:request(put, {Url, [{"User-Agent", UA}], "application/json", Bodytext}, [], [])

Can you use wireshark or tcpdump to determine if the request is reaching your server? Also, can you successfully perform the request with curl? – klm Jun 23 '10 at 20:54
