Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 839023

(Bugzilla :: WebService, defect)

Description

[Ahmed Akhtar]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/50.0.2661.102 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

I am fetching bugs using Bugzilla::Webservice::Bug::search remote procedure, via Apache's XML-RPC Client, from the deployment at bugzilla.mozilla.org and using the following code: search(searchCriteria, offset, limit); which fails when: searchCriteria is product=firefox, offset is 21900 and limit is 100 whereas, for other values of offset, it works fine.


Actual results:

Failed to parse servers response.
XmlRpcClientException: An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x3) was found.


Expected results:

Bugzilla::Webservice::Bug::search utility function should return valid XML for every value of offset.
