Problem with pipes service
Posted on: Sat, 08/01/2009 - 05:54
Hello,
I am invoking the pipes web service without success: Calais returns nothing but the same content (tweets/moods) in the viewer yield data.
I have compared to another simple vanilla pipes call taking its input from a CNN feed and that works.
What are the specific elements the pipes call relies on? I have already checked for more obvious problems (malformed URL).
TIA
JP

No worries about the delay - I am sure you guys have lots of features to work on. I was just puzzled and suck at installing Tomcat quickly to test :-)
Hi JP,
Thanks for raising this issue. We found a bug in the pipes service and have fixed this for good. The test pipe you created above shows Open Calais tags.
BTW in the follow-up post above, when you say 'you went through the CalaisPipes source code', which source code are you referring to?
Thanks.

Anyone?
I have published a minimal example showing what I mean.

TIA!!
I went through the CalaisPipes source code and found the answer to my question: any item with a link and description element will be passed to the Calais engine.
Still, I cannot find why my construct doesn't work and I don't really want to setup a servlet engine to find out...
