Service Api (4.2.1) - Unable to access catalog

Vote:

Hi,

I am trying to access the entries and nodes of our catalog but get the error below. The endpoints not related to the catalog work just fine.

Any advice ?

David

It sounds like you need to add wildcard host name to your site definition

Thanks, it worked!

I already had the wildcard set for my web site. The only difference was that the culture was set on the wilcard but not on the hostname. I added the culture on both, then it worked.
