"Absolute URI is too short" woe

This used to work (before 3.0 F5) where using

new WWW ("http://internal:8080/camera.cgi?res=320x240", form.data, headers);

got me a bitmap. Now it gives me this error. Looks ok to me. What gives?

The only time I’ve seen this error is when the WWW object fails to be created properly. In my case it was because I was trying to download a file from a domain other than the one the webplayer was hosted at (webplayer at this.com, file was at that.com).

It seems like in your case, since you said the problem occurred in standalone builds as well, it may have more to do with the headers or the way you’re grabbing the form data. Not really sure.

If you do this:

WWW myWWW = new WWW ("http://internal:8080/camera.cgi?res=320x240", form.data, headers);

Debug.Log(myWWW.data);

is the URI issue the only error that appears, or is there another one after it?

Go to services tab and uncheck collaboration. This will remove the issue.
