Can you try with curl, something like :
curl "http://ip/ocs/v1.php/apps/files_sharing/api/v1/shares" -k -u user:password -X POST --data "path=test/Lab.txt&shareType=3" . It works for me on oc6beta2/beta3

[ser72]

@Skunnyk That worked. Thanks. Then how would you share with a user?

[Skunnyk]

@ser72 You can look at https://github.com/owncloud/documentation/blob/stable5/developer_manual/core/ocs-share-api.rst .
Something like :
curl "http://ip/ocs/v1.php/apps/files_sharing/api/v1/shares" -k -u user:password -X POST --data "path=test/Lab.txt&shareType=0&shareWith=yogi" should works :)
Some examples here too : http://blog.alteroot.org/articles/2013-11-02/play-with-owncloud-share-api.html

@Skunnyk : That worked. Great. Thanks. THe thing that confused me is in the doc the shareWith is listed as expecting an integer not a string. So I didn't quite know how to proceed with that.

CURL works. Still need to get this working with Poster or the likes. Configure as above get error message

@ser72 I have no clue about POSTER - let's see what I can do ....

If it works with CURL then it's most likely not an ownCloud bug.

[Skunnyk]

@ser72 Don't forget to clic to "Body from parameters" in "Content to send" tab in Poster to use Parameters. It's not an owncloud issue :)

[ser72]

@Skunnyk That did it. Thanks
