Reverse Replication Agent is unable to poll the publish instance outbox

Question: I have a weird issue where the reverse replication test works once I set up the agent. However, the agent is unable to poll to the publish instance outbox and it throws the following exception.19.08.2014 20:46:11 - INFO - qa-reverse-agent: Replication (TEST) of /content successful.

Answer: By default the “HTTP Method” field in the Extended tab in the reverse replication configuration should set to GET for all the reverse replications but it was empty indicates a POST. Please change to “GET”. Attaching a snapshot for quick reference.
