Parameters to Apex RESTful service

Question

I am having issues getting parameters to pass to a region I have published as REST. I am using the following URL:
http://apex:8000/apex/apex_rest.getReport?app=145&page=2&reportid=RestTest&parmvalues=P2_ID,1969&output=xml
And I have the SQL for the report defined as:
select * from accounts
where id=nv('P2_ID')
or nv('P2_ID') IS NULL
The report runs and filters fine from the web page, but does not honor the parameter when passed as above.
Any thoughts?
This is Apex 4.0.0.00.46

Hi Randy,
I was having a similar issue to yours and wondered if you made any progress with it?
I have a test report based on this SQL :
select empno,ename,job,mgr,hiredate,sal,comm,deptno
  from empwhich when enabled for RESTful access I can get the data just fine with this :
http://<server>/apex/apex_rest.getReport?app=39830&page=16&reportid=111however if I add a hidden page item (P16_DEPTNO) and use that in the SQL :
select empno,ename,job,mgr,hiredate,sal,comm,deptno
  from emp
where deptno = :P16_DEPTNOand change my RESTful URL to :
http://<server>/apex/apex_rest.getReport?app=39830&page=16&reportid=111&parmvalues=P16_DEPTNO,10then I get an error :
The requested URL /apex/apex_rest.getReport was not found on this server
The page works fine when viewed normally so i don't think there are any page errors.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Steve
