getting exceptions.KeyError: 'changeto' on API call /api/partition?changeTo=2

[unixgeex]

Hi,

I am trying to use the API call to change the partition as documented :
http://ip_address:8111/api/partition?changeTo=2

And I am getting that:

web.Server Traceback (most recent call last): exceptions.KeyError: 'changeto' /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/twisted/web/server.py:189 in process 188 self._encoder = encoder 189 self.render(resrc) 190 except: /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/twisted/web/server.py:238 in render 237 try: 238 body = resrc.render(self) 239 except UnsupportedMethod as e: /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/twisted/web/resource.py:250 in render 249 raise UnsupportedMethod(allowedMethods) 250 return m(request) 251 ./alarmserver.py:702 in render_GET 701 elif myPath == '/api/partition': 702 changeTo = query_array['changeto'][0] 703 if not changeTo.isdigit(): exceptions.KeyError: 'changeto'

Everything else works perfectly... please help.
thanks
David

seems to work better with lowercase :
http://ip_address:8111/api/partition?changeto=2
received:
{"response": "Request to change current partition to 2 was received."}
but the subsequent calls to /api does not take effect on partition 2, but keeps on returning information for partition1 ... any idea ?
I need to access partition 2 because I have a device in zone 17.

many thanks in advance!
David

I just figured out the the alarmserver.cfg file add only zone[1-16] defined... I added definition for zone[17-32], restarted alaserver process, voilà!
I get status from zone 17 now, no need to change partition... =)
