Public bug reported: If you send a PATCH request to a member with an invalid parameter (anything other than "address", at the moment) you get a 500 response, instead of a 400 Bad Request. Here is the unhandled exception generating the 500 error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/wsgiref/handlers.py", line 93, in run self.result = application(self.environ, self.start_response) File "/home/sgoss/mailman_clone/src/mailman/rest/wsgiapp.py", line 58, in __call__ environ, start_response) File "/home/sgoss/phoenix-deploy/lib/python2.6/site-packages/restish-0.12.1-py2.6.egg/restish/app.py", line 18, in __call__ response = self.get_response(request, resource_or_response) File "/home/sgoss/phoenix-deploy/lib/python2.6/site-packages/restish-0.12.1-py2.6.egg/restish/app.py", line 65, in get_response resource_or_response = resource_or_response(request) File "/home/sgoss/phoenix-deploy/lib/python2.6/site-packages/restish-0.12.1-py2.6.egg/restish/resource.py", line 212, in __call__ return _dispatch(request, match, lambda r: callable(self, r)) File "/home/sgoss/phoenix-deploy/lib/python2.6/site-packages/restish-0.12.1-py2.6.egg/restish/resource.py", line 243, in _dispatch response = func(request) File "/home/sgoss/phoenix-deploy/lib/python2.6/site-packages/restish-0.12.1-py2.6.egg/restish/resource.py", line 212, in <lambda> return _dispatch(request, match, lambda r: callable(self, r)) File "/home/sgoss/mailman_clone/src/mailman/rest/helpers.py", line 199, in __call__ return self.func(resource, request) File "/home/sgoss/mailman_clone/src/mailman/rest/members.py", line 129, in patch_membership values = Validator(address=unicode)(request) File "/home/sgoss/mailman_clone/src/mailman/rest/validator.py", line 88, in __call__ raise ValueError('Unexpected parameters: {0}'.format(extras)) ValueError: Unexpected parameters: delivery_mode ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: mailman3 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/833376 Title: Attempting to PATCH an invalid attribute on a member object in REST API results in 500, instead of 400.
