Curl fails with XML error.

[Face_it]

I have been trying to grab results from a macro that i created. I think the problem is the backticks, even when i escape them i still recieve and error. Could someone give me a hand with my syntax.

curl -k -u admin:changeme --data-urlencode search="search \nov\_adname\_info(iqbaln)\\" -d earliest_time=-2d -d latest_time=now -d output_mode=csv https://specialserver.example.com:8089/servicesNS/#admin/search/search/jobs/export

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Couple of things could be wrong.

In your URI string your user name has a # in front of it. That should not be there.

In addition you are using the default username and password. By default splunk disallows remote access by the default username and password, so if trying this from a remote machine you will need to change the property allowRemoteLogin in server.conf in $SPLUNKHOME/etc/system/local/server.conf to always.
