Unable to create a contact

Question

Hi Preston,
I am trying to create a contact using createItemRequest method.
I am unable to create a contact when i try to set the EmailAddressList's Primary Attribute for the contact. However if i comment the line for setting the Primary Attribute for email addresses, I am able to create the contact.
The following is the XML Trace.
<createItemRequest xmlns="http://schemas.novell.com/2005/01/GroupWise/methods">
- + <item xsi:type="q1:Contact" xmlns:q1="http://schemas.novell.com/2005/01/GroupWise/types">
- + <q1:name>test user</q1:name>
- + <q1:container>4B94C4DE.DSRDOM.BNEPO.104.1737179.1. 87D.1@53</q1:container>
- + <q1:PABGuid>/Y\6` "f <E:*! 6~ !</q1:PABGuid>
- + <q1:fullName>
- + <q1:displayName>test user</q1:displayName>
- + <q1:firstName>test</q1:firstName>
- + <q1:lastName>user</q1:lastName>
</q1:fullName>
- + <q1:emailList primary="test1">
- + <q1:email>test1</q1:email>
- + <q1:email>test2</q1:email>
</q1:emailList>
<q1:officeInfo />
</item>
</createItemRequest>
I am getting two types of error
- + <createItemResponse
xmlns:gwt="http://schemas.novell.com/2005/01/GroupWise/types"
xmlns="http://schemas.novell.com/2005/01/GroupWise/methods">

</status>
</createItemResponse>
- + <createItemResponse

</status>
</createItemResponse>

Answer 1

The code is looking for internet style addresses.
Do you get the same problem if you supply email
address with an internet domain, i.e. [email protected]?
(Where "test.com" is a valid internet domain.)
