    <p>I need to post to a web server which is expecting xml data as well as an image. The Post request is a mutlipart form. After some research it seemed like most people were recommending <code>ASIHTTPRequest</code>. So I have added this to my project but am still unable to communicate with the server. I get a <code>401 error</code> which I think is returned when the server doesn't get whats expected. (I know that the error handling is not the best but that's all I have to go on). So I have created my <code>ASIHTTPRequest</code> object and used the <code>appendPostData</code> and <code>appendPostDataFromFile</code> methods to attempt to post both the xml and image but had no luck.</p> <p>Here is some of the code :</p> <pre><code> NSMutableData *temp = [[NSMutableData alloc]init]; [temp appendData: [[NSString stringWithFormat: @"&lt;MobileRequest&gt;"] dataUsingEncoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding]]; [temp appendData: [[NSString stringWithFormat: @"&lt;userTokenId&gt;%@&lt;/userTokenId&gt;", @"myUserToken"] dataUsingEncoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding]]; [temp appendData: [[NSString stringWithFormat: @"&lt;applicationTokenId&gt;%@&lt;/applicationTokenId&gt;", @"myAppId"] dataUsingEncoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding]]; [temp appendData: [[NSString stringWithFormat: @"&lt;item&gt;%@&lt;/item&gt;", @"some item string"] dataUsingEncoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding]]; [temp appendData: [[NSString stringWithFormat: @"&lt;attachmentFileName&gt;%@&lt;/attachmentFileName&gt;", @"image.png"] dataUsingEncoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding]]; [temp appendData: [[NSString stringWithFormat: @"&lt;/MobileRequest&gt;"] dataUsingEncoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding]]; NSOperationQueue *queue = [(AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication]delegate]operationQueue]; NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://myUrl/Request/"]; ASIHTTPRequest *request = [ASIHTTPRequest requestWithURL:url]; [request addRequestHeader:@"Content-Type" value:@"text/xml"]; [request appendPostData:temp]; [request appendPostDataFromFile:imageUrlString]; [request setPostBody:temp]; [request setDelegate:self]; [request setDidFinishSelector:@selector(requestDone:)]; [request setDidFailSelector:@selector(requestWentWrong:)]; [queue addOperation:request]; </code></pre> <p>I get a callback in <code>requestWentWrong</code> and the error is the <code>401 Authorization required</code>... which again I think isn't the real problem.</p> <p>Can anyone point in a helpful direction or show me what I'm doing wrong?</p> <p>Any thoughts would be really appreciated.</p>

    1. COIs it some sort of public API? Are you sure you don't need authorization? Have you tried making a request with something like [Poster](https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/poster/) or similar?

    3. COI think it would help to actually post a valid POST request here, so that people might be able to derive a ASIHTTPRequest solution. You can also try the AFNetworking framework which is very good, as ASIHTTPRequest is no longer maintained.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
