IBM Connections - can't add opensocial gadget


I developed an open social gadget and am trying to display it in Connections. I can't get Connections to even try to load the xml definition file.

I get "Unable to load widget" in the gadget area in the side column

In JS console the errors read:

(Usable to retrieve spec for gadgeturl. HTTP error 400) while loading widget

_WidgetHandleBase - gadget failed to load (gadgeturl)

Here's what I did:

1) Enabled developer mode and restarted Connections. I used this guide as a reference, allServers attribute is set to true so I'm not using the whitelist. http://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/dw/lotus/OS_gadget_IC4_final.pdf

2) Configured the gadget in admin section of Connections.

3) Added the gadget through the customize link

Again, the gadget url leads to an xml definition file and it is accessible via a browser. Connections never accessed the url based on server logs.

Any idea what I am missing?

Thanks, Vilem
