Hmm – the problem I have with this is that the button isn’t attached to a URL, it runs the following java function…
new Ajax.Request(‘xml-rpc’,{method:’post’,parameters: ‘method=rescan’,onComplete: Updater.rsStartScan});
My attempts to convert this to a URL have lead me to variances of
http://localhost:9999/xlm-rpc&method=rescan
but none of these actually force the server to rescan.
That should be:
http://localhost:9999/xml-rpc?method=rescan
(or, for a full rescan)
http://localhost:9999/xml-rpc?method=rescan&full=1
If you are doing it from a remote system, you may need to use username and password as well:
http://user:password@localhost:9999?xml-rpc?method=rescan
