"Absolute URI is too short" woe
This used to work (before 3.0 F5) where using
new WWW ("http://internal:8080/camera.cgi?res=320x240", form.data, headers);
got me a bitmap. Now it gives me this error. Looks ok to me. What gives?
web player or stand alone or what? details details details
Either build setting. Seems to be related to crossdomain.xml. I put that file on the server and prefetch it (making sure to add the ports to that xml file), it's working again. The bug would be that the error message is misleading or at least not informative enough.
I have exact the same problem with editor. I don`t know yet how to debug in standalone version, so I cant tell... I would appreciate any help/suggestions you might have for me if you solved your problem.
It happens when people (less than 16 karma) post duplicate answers, and those answers get preemptively deleted on the moderation queue. It's a (yet another) Qato bug, and it's quite repeatable. It used to be worse- it used to happen whenever a comment was converted into an answer, and subsequently deleted, too.
On the subject of Qato bugs, how long do you think it'll take before anyone else can see this edit?

The only time I've seen this error is when the WWW object fails to be created properly. In my case it was because I was trying to download a file from a domain other than the one the webplayer was hosted at (webplayer at this.com, file was at that.com).
It seems like in your case, since you said the problem occurred in standalone builds as well, it may have more to do with the headers or the way you're grabbing the form data. Not really sure.
If you do this:
WWW myWWW = new WWW ("http://internal:8080/camera.cgi?res=320x240", form.data, headers);
Debug.Log(myWWW.data);
is the URI issue the only error that appears, or is there another one after it?

Go to services tab and uncheck collaboration. This will remove the issue.
