500 Internal Server Error on project creation

[Erik C. Thauvin]

I'm developing a plugin for a build tool, and each time I try to use /api/v2/projects to create a new project, I get a 500 Internet Server Error back from the server.

I assumed that I was doing something wrong, but I don't see anything wrong with my request, at least not compared to the one sent by the API test page.

I've enclosed both full text requests.

Hey @ethauvin. Do you still have this issues? We had yesterday night some downtime because of infrastructure problems. Maybe it was related to that? If you still have that issue I will debug it of course.

[Erik C. Thauvin]

Thanks @reiz. Yes, it is still happening and I found out something else... It works if I use the demo API key (f98ce8f4cffeca6bbf91) but errors out if I use my API key.

If you need to trigger the error, follow these steps (you'll need java installed):

git clone [e-mail]:ethauvin/kobalt-versioneye.git
cd kobalt-versioneye
./kobaltw assemble
cd example
./kobaltw -Dversioneye.apiKey=f98ce8f4cffeca6bbf91 versionEye

That'll work without an error, substitue my API key in the last command and you'll get the 500 Internal Server Error.

Hope this helps.

Hey @ethauvin. I just tried it out and could reproduce the error. It's fixed now.

You can also test with your organisations API key. Find it here: https://www.versioneye.com/organisations/thauvin/apikey. The orga API key is not attached to any user and you can use it to create, update and delete projects in your organisation.

If you are developing a plugin for VersionEye this repo might be interesting for you: https://github.com/versioneye/pom_json_format. The other JVM plugins for VersionEye are implementing that JSON format.

Let me know if you need more help.

Great @reiz. I'll give it a try. Thanks.

@reiz Just wanted to let you know that the plug-in is now available:

If you want to add it to your list. Thanks.

[Robert Reiz]

@ethauvin Awesome! I will add it to the list on the API page. What is your twitter handle? I will include your plugin in the next VersionEye newsletter ;)

[Robert Reiz]

@ethauvin It's listed now here: https://www.versioneye.com/api/.

@reiz Thanks! Looks like you found me on twitter too.
