    <p>I am trying to write a small class using the Apache HttpClient library that would do an HTTPS post to a specified URL sending some XML. When I run my code, the HTTP status line I receive back is "403 Service Error". Here's the complete error HTML returned:</p> <pre><code>$errorDump java.net.SocketTimeoutException:Read timed out $errorInfo $errorDump java.net.SocketTimeoutException:Read timed out $error Read timed out $localizedError Read timed out $errorType java.net.SocketTimeoutException $user $time 2011-10-25 09:39:29 EDT $error Read timed out $errorType java.net.SocketTimeoutException </code></pre> <p>This is the code I am using:</p> <pre><code>import java.io.ByteArrayInputStream; import java.io.InputStreamReader; import java.io.BufferedReader; import org.apache.http.HttpEntity; import org.apache.http.HttpResponse; import org.apache.http.client.HttpClient; import org.apache.http.client.methods.HttpPost; import org.apache.http.entity.InputStreamEntity; import org.apache.http.impl.client.DefaultHttpClient; import org.apache.http.util.EntityUtils; public class HttpXmlPost { public static void main(String[] args) { String url = "https://someurlhere.com"; String xmlStr = "&lt;?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\" ?&gt;&lt;xmlTag&gt;&lt;/xmlTag&gt;"; String content = request(xmlStr, url); System.out.println(content); } private static String request(String xmlStr, String url) { boolean success = false; String content = ""; HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient(); try { HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url.trim()); InputStreamEntity reqEntity = new InputStreamEntity(new ByteArrayInputStream(xmlStr.getBytes() ), -1); reqEntity.setContentType("application/xml"); reqEntity.setChunked(true); httpPost.setEntity(reqEntity); System.out.println("Executing request " + httpPost.getRequestLine()); HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpPost); HttpEntity resEntity = response.getEntity(); System.out.println("----------------------------------------"); System.out.println(response.getStatusLine()); if(response.getStatusLine().getStatusCode() == 200){ success = true; } if (resEntity != null) { System.out.println("Response content length: " + resEntity.getContentLength()); System.out.println("Chunked?: " + resEntity.isChunked()); } BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(resEntity.getContent())); StringBuilder buf = new StringBuilder(); char[] cbuf = new char[ 2048 ]; int num; while ( -1 != (num=reader.read( cbuf ))) { buf.append( cbuf, 0, num ); } content = buf.toString(); EntityUtils.consume(resEntity); } catch (Exception e) { System.out.println(e); } finally { httpclient.getConnectionManager().shutdown(); } return content; } } </code></pre> <p>Whatever XML I pass in doesn't seem to matter, it gives the same error no matter what. Note that this actually works with some URLs. For example, if I put <a href="https://www.facebook.com" rel="nofollow">https://www.facebook.com</a>, it goes through. However, it doesn't work for my specified URL. I thought it might be a certificate issue, tried to add some code to trust any certificate, didn't seem to work either, though I may have done it wrong. Any help is appreciated.</p>

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.
