-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all,
I'm playing with the --timeout argument to Fuseki (checked out from trunk a couple of days ago). When a query times out the client currently receives the following, which doesn't explain much: > Error 500: Server Error This is the result of a QueryCancelledException being caught at line 107 of SPARQL_ServletBase, which has the comment "This should not happen" It'd be good if this were explicitly caught and a more user-friendly error message provided. I don't know what HTTP status code should be provided[1]. The spec does say 500, but that upsets me (and Hugh Glaser)[2]. Shall I create an issue in JIRA and put together a patch? Yours, Alex [1] I've asked[2] the HTTP WG whether they'd consider the inclusion of a "Request Too Onerous" status code in the new status code draft[3]. [2] There's been previous discussion of this on public-lod[5].
