Question

I tried to implement a simple webservice using ServiceStack and Sitefinity V3.7sp3 net35. I added ServiceStack as localhost/api using this web config. After implemented the service class using IService to get the full items News contents and registred the Global asax for routes. The result is always zero items. It’s very similar to this other post in Sf Forum. Change the ContentManager or the provider is always returning zero items and zero as count. My Sf is allowing multilanguage en,fr..using path. Many be need to be Async?. Can someone help me to fix this case using servicestack of course.

Regards.

Remove the /api from your RestService()'s. So like:

[RestService("/items")]
[RestService("/items/news")]
[RestService("/items/news/{provider}")]
[RestService("/items/news/{provider}/{language}")]

Or your url would have to be domain.com/api/api/items...

You have tested your site with domain.com/api/metadata?
