HttpError: Metadata request did not return XML (Again)

[ghost]

Hi there! Running into an issue that you've encountered before but the fixes from #7 and #11 aren't working for me.

OS: Windows 10 Pro
Python 3.6.6 |Anaconda, Inc.| (default, Jun 28 2018, 11:27:44) [MSC v.1900 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32

certifi 2018.10.15
chardet 3.0.4
enum34 1.1.6
idna 2.7
lxml 4.2.5
pip 19.2.3
pyodata 1.2.3
requests 2.19.1
setuptools 28.8.0
urllib 1.23

Steps to reproduce:
import pyodata
import requests

samples_url = "https://soil-chem.information.qld.gov.au/odata/Samples"

api = pyodata.Client(samples_url, requests.Session())

Expected results:
A new client object

Actual result:
File "", line 1, in
runfile('file path', wdir='C:/Users/Ryan Joshua LI/Desktop/DSM Datathon/Code')

File "file path\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\spyder_kernels\customize\spydercustomize.py", line 668, in runfile
execfile(filename, namespace)

File "file path\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\spyder_kernels\customize\spydercustomize.py", line 108, in execfile
exec(compile(f.read(), filename, 'exec'), namespace)

File "file path", line 8, in
api = pyodata.Client(results_url, requests.Session())

File "file path\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\pyodata\client.py", line 43, in new
resp)

HttpError: Metadata request did not return XML, MIME type: text/html, body:
...... (adding anymore loses a lot of it)

Same error returned by the following URLs:
https://soil-chem.information.qld.gov.au/odata/SiteLabMethod
https://soil-chem.information.qld.gov.au/odata/SiteLabMethodResults

Any help would be very much appreciated! Thanks!

Hi @Pyrowombat, thank you for taking the time to report this issue.

There are two problems:

1. The URL should be an OData service root, in your case: https://soil-chem.information.qld.gov.au/odata/
2. We support only OData V2 and your service is V4 - we are working on adding support for V4 (Add support for V4 #39)

By the way, you have created a perfect bug report. Really appreciated!
