Categories API not working
Client wants forum info embedded in their site, /discussions.xml works as expected but /categories.xml returns this:
The documentation doesn't say anything about why this wouldn't work - the categories appear on the forum itself. I've tried deleting the cache ini files but am at a loss for why this isn't working.
Using the latest build 2.0.18.1 (upgraded a previous version). Anyone know why this is happening?

grep is your friend.
The documentation says nothing about /all
http://vanillaforums.org/docs/api-categories
Yep but api mirrors (approximately) what you would expect with the xhtml to be RESTful
So if I go to categories/ I'm getting the root. To get all the categories categories/all
grep is your friend.
I have recently downloaded the latest version of vanilla and the api calls dont work.
I have no prior experience with vanilla.
Can anyone guide me how to go about this.I have also installed the json api application by eleith , but that doesnt work either.
I tried /vanilla/api/category
Give 404 error.
still shows 404.
Do i have to do some configure soemthing in order to use this api.
path_to_vanilla/categories.xml/all
