Form Data invalid when sending POST(through CURL) to Codeigniter - El Forum - 12-20-2011
[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
Hi there,
hopefully someone can help me.
Let me explain shortly what i want to do:
In an external Website we have a form with Post Data which we want to send through Curl to one Codeigniter Installation.
The Problem is that CI returns a 500 Error together with the message "An Error Was Encountered, The Formulardata u sent is invalid". If i change POSTFIELDS to a simple string it does work, also if i make just a testscript outside CI. So Curl seems to be fine.
Something in CI breaks up the POST array, i also tried to set the permit uri characters.. but that didnt helped ://
Attached the Curl Script and its Output. Code in CI is just a controller with a simple print of $_POST.
Would be great if someone has an idea what could be the problem..
Thanks!!!
