[jira] [Closed] (OFBIZ-13152) Inconsistent Error Handling for Entity Creation via Exported Service

["Jacques Le Roux (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-13152?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Jacques Le Roux closed OFBIZ-13152.
-----------------------------------
    Resolution: Information Provided

We could try to force to use Tomcat 9.0.86 in rest-appi plugin. I'm not sure it would work and worse, since several CVEs has been fixed. I suggest that you use Tomcat 9.0.86 at the framework level and if you think it's the right solution keep it like that. We will not revert OOTB because of security.

> There appears to be a problem with the OFBiz error-handling mechanism when creating an entity using an exported service. Initially, if incorrect input data is provided, OFBiz correctly returns a meaningful error message from the backend. However, upon resubmitting the same request without any changes, instead of returning the same meaningful error, the system responds with a 500 internal server error and an HTML response.
> Interestingly, when OFBiz is restarted, the first request with the same incorrect data again returns a proper, meaningful error message. But all subsequent requests with the same data continue to produce a 500 response, which is not ideal for consistent error reporting.
> This issue impacts debugging and error handling for services that rely on accurate back-end responses. The expected behavior would be to consistently return the meaningful error for all requests, regardless of whether OFBiz has been restarted.
