Originally created by @arpymastro on GitHub (Dec 17, 2018).

I am trying to read a .xml response kept in a separate file under my mappings folder.
I have two files under my mappings folder - MyJsonReq.json and MyXmlResponse.xml
MyJsonReq.json -

/// snip ///

If I check the logs it is showing - could not be read.This file will be skipped for both MyJsonReq.json and MyXmlResponse.xml

I've fixed you example, the "Headers" where wrongly defined.

It should be:

{
	"Request": {
        "Path": {
            "Matchers": [
                {
                    "Name": "WildcardMatcher",
                    "Pattern": "/myreq",
                    "IgnoreCase": false
                }
            ]
        },
        "Methods": [
            "post"
        ]
	},
	"Response":	{
		"StatusCode": 201,
		"Headers": {"Content-Type": "application/xml"},
    	        "BodyDestination": "SameAsSource",
   		"BodyAsFile": "MyXmlResponse.xml",
                "UseTransformer": false	
	}
}

Can you try this?

@StefH - nope still it doesn't work and shows the same logs.
FYI - If I give full path (C://folder//folder//__admin/mappings//MyXmlResponse.xml) of my response file it works.
Is there a way to do it relatively? my response and request files both are in same mappings folder

The error message is like:

2018-12-17 07:41:17 [Info] : Reading Static MappingFile : 'c:\temp-wiremock\__admin\mappings\MyXmlResponse.xml'
2018-12-17 07:41:17 [Error] : Static MappingFile : 'c:\temp-wiremock\__admin\mappings\MyXmlResponse.xml' could not be read. This file will be skipped.

This is correct, however WireMock should only read .json files and not others.

And there is a problem reading files with no path.
For now you need to use full path "BodyAsFile": "C:\\temp-wiremock\\__admin\\mappings\\MyXmlResponse.xml",

I'll check if I can update this.

If I keep "BodyAsFile" : "MyXmlResponse.xml" in my MyJsonReq.json file then i get could not be read. This file will be skipped. for both files.

If I keep "BodyAsFile" : "C:/my_full_path_to/MyXmlResponse.xml" then i get could not be read. This file will be skipped. for MyXmlResponse.xml file, which is expected.

@arpymastro commented on GitHub (Dec 17, 2018): If I keep `"BodyAsFile" : "MyXmlResponse.xml"` in my MyJsonReq.json file then i get `could not be read. This file will be skipped.` for **both** files.

@arpymastro

If you like, you can use the NuGet from MyGet 1.0.7-ci-1623 to test this fixed code.
(see https://github.com/WireMock-Net/WireMock.Net/wiki/MyGet-preview-versions)

I still have this issue. Logs show a perfect match but the file content is not being returned by the proxy.

I've tried setting absolute and relatives paths already.. neither worked.

Just reading through some of the other issues -- specifically #179 -- I'm using the ReadStaticMappings and WatchStaticMappings features, but in the JSON I want to define BodyAsFile... is that allowed? Thanks

The issue was local... The xml format that I saved in added extra white space and the service I was proxying refused the entire response with the extra white space. Everything is working as it should. Thanks.
