Recurrences Not working correctly

Combination View Flat View Tree View
Threads [ Previous | Next ]
using XML API, i have successfully scheduled a meeting, but have recently added recurrences to meetings too.  This works fine too except in the case when using the <afterMeetingNumber> tag to end the recurrences after N number of meetings.  
 
In every case, if i schedule the meeting to end after N, only N-1 instances show up in my meetings.  Moreover, if i edit the meeting in my web browser and don't make any changes to it, but then immediately save the meeting, the Nth instance shows up.  I'm sending via curl from *nix shell.
 
Any ideas?  Here's a sample XML code:

/usr/bin/curl -X POST --header 'Content-type: text/xml' --url https://ciscosales.webex.com/WBXService/XMLService --data '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Hi Jay,
 
I beleive this has already been communicated to you in a different thread,  but I 'm going to post here for everyone.  The problem you listed above is a bug and we have had this filed with engineering.  To work around this issue,  you can call setMeeting with an empty body and the correct number of reoccurring meetings should show up correctly.
 
Thank you
