Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-1528: ------------------------------------ This doesn't seem unique to the binary format... We don't currently return parseable errors for any return format do we? {code} $ curl 'http://localhost:8983/solr/select?q=foo:bar&wt=json' <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"/> <title>Error 400 </title> </head> <body><h2>HTTP ERROR: 400</h2><pre>undefined field foo</pre> <p>RequestURI=/solr/select</p><p><i><small><a href="http://jetty.mortbay.org/">P owered by Jetty://</a></small></i></p><br/> [...] {code} > A non-200 response code gives no response body with wt=javabin > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-1528 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1528 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Shalin Shekhar Mangar > Fix For: 1.5 > > > Servlet Engines (Tomcat & Jetty) do not allow you to write binary payload > when the HTTP response code is not 200. Therefore, when an error occurs > during a request and wt=javabin then although the response to the client has > the correct HTTP response code (4xx/5xx), it has no binary payload. Instead, > tomcat sends out a character stream with stack traces which causes an > exception in the clients because they were expecting a binary payload. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
