response.getStatusLine（）：HTTP / 1.1 400错误的请求

Question

I have passed date field as string into URL and date is encoded through URLEncoder.encode(date,"UTF-8")

generated Url is as below:

    http://localhost:2990/jira/rest/issuesrestresource/1.0/message/RetrievessuesForUser/username/16%2FMay%2F13

But it does not able to call the rest resource service and giving me Bad request error as below.

response.getStatusLine():HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request

what could be wrong and giving me bad request error..? Thanks

Answer 1

Try encoding the url instead of just date:

URLEncoder.encode(url,"UTF-8")

where url is your url string consisting date as well.

Answer 2

Thanks for your comments.

I just resolved by formatting the date as - "dd-MMM-yyyy" instead of 'dd/MMM/yyyy'. and it works fine.
