"Error when extracting the ruleset parameter value from the request. at SignatureXMLBinding.deserialize" for the Business Rules service on Bluemix

I executed my rules deployed on the Business Rules for Bluemix using REST API. However, I see the following error messages:

ilog.rules.res.decisionservice.IlrDecisionServiceException: Error when extracting the ruleset parameter value from the request. at com.ibm.rules.htds.binding.xml.SignatureXMLBinding.deserialize(SignatureXMLBinding.java:176) at com.ibm.rules.htds.servlet.RESTDecisionServiceServlet.extractInParameters(RESTDecisionServiceServlet.java:954) at com.ibm.rules.htds.servlet.RESTDecisionServiceServlet.execute(RESTDecisionServiceServlet.java:921) at com.ibm.rules.htds.servlet.RESTDecisionServiceServlet.onMessage(RESTDecisionServiceServlet.java:843) at com.ibm.rules.htds.servlet.RESTDecisionServiceServlet.handleRequest(RESTDecisionServiceServlet.java:750) at com.ibm.rules.htds.servlet.RESTDecisionServiceServlet.doPost(RESTDecisionServiceServlet.java:737) at com.ibm.rules.htds.servlet.RESTDecisionServiceServlet.doPost(RESTDecisionServiceServlet.java:732) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:595) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:668

Solution

  • I had specified the content type in the request headers as XML:

     "Content-type" : "application/xml"

    However, I passed the data in the JSON format. Once I fixed the content type as follows, I was able to execute the rules successfully.

     "Content-type" : "application/json"
