Im following the webscript page :-
http://localhost:8080/share/page/index/all

for extracting Data-Lists: Columns configuration,
the link given is GET /share/page/components/data-lists/config/columns

In the application, share is invoking the URL http://localhost:8080/share/page/components/data-lists/config/columns?itemType=dl:location  for getting the datalist of type dl:location

Now the issue is when I using this URL from an external service, as
http://localhost:8080/share/page/components/data-lists/config/columns?itemType=dl:location&alf_ticket=TICKET_12863430o346209
it gives me an error.

On checking, even when the webscript is called from the browser, it gives

HTTP request sent, awaiting response… 500 Internal Server Error
2010-06-12 11:29:54 ERROR 500: Internal Server Error.‍‍

The webscript works ONLY WHEN i HAVE LOGGED IN TO ALFRESCO SHARE.iT IS NOT ACCEPTING THE ALF_TICKET GENERATED FROM OUTSIDE.

Is there anything I am missing???

I am bot sure if this is still useful for you but it maybe for someone else: the answer is in the JIRA: ALF-2808:
http://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ALF-2808.

If you are usingjava's httpmethods, you just need to add these two lines:

   method.setRequestHeader("Accept-Charset", "ISO-8859-1,utf-8");
   method.setRequestHeader("Accept-Language", "en");
‍‍‍‍

where method is your org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.PostMethod (or GetMethod, etc…)
