1733257 - JSON parsing errors in policy provide no useful information

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Enterprise Policies, defect)

Description

[Mike Kaply [:mkaply]]

We have a user who is getting JSON parsing errors but the JSON is correct.

We should be outputting the real error instead of just saying "error parsing"
