It may be worthwhile to troubleshoot this from cURL on the command line. Use the -v option for extra verbosity, and use the -H option to add additional headers. Example:

curl -v http://10.10.10.10/api/charm/monitor -H "Host: myhost.com" -H "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:23.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/23.0" -H "Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,/;q=0.8" -H "Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.5" -H "Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate" -H "Connection: keep-alive"
