REST - HTTP_40x -> JRJC tries to JSON-parse HTML error page

Markus Mitterauer
Markus Mitterauer May 14, 2019

When accessing the Jira REST API through JRJC with invalid credentials or insufficient privileges, then AbstractAsynchronousRestClient tries to parse the HTML error page returned by the Jira Server as JSON with Jettison.

This concludes in a "JSONException: A JSONObject text must begin with '{' at character 11 of [full HTML page content]".
As the exception message contains the full HTML error page data, it's quite huge:

(Jira v7.13.2)

 

To improve this, could either the Server return an JSON error message via the REST API, or the JRJC client (AbstractAsynchronousRestClient.extractErrors(AbstractAsynchronousRestClient.java:212)) detect the type (JSON, HTML) of the returned content and parse it accordingly?
