853929 - BzAPI configuration call got some wrong data in response

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Webtools Graveyard :: BzAPI, defect)

Description

[teapot]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.22 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/25.0.1364.172 Safari/537.22

Steps to reproduce:

We installed the following on 64 bit window 7:
Bugzilla: 4.2.5; Perl: 5.12.5 (32 bit); Apache http server 2.2.22 (32 bit); mySQL 5.5.30 (32 bit) Bz::Client used is 1.0.3.
But BzAPI call for http://hostname:3000/configuration includes the following line in return for many attributes: is_active: !!perl/scalar:JSON::PP::Boolean 1


Actual results:

http://hostname:3000/configuration returns:
announcement: ''
field: 
  alias: 
    description: Alias
    is_active: !!perl/scalar:JSON::PP::Boolean 1
    type: 1
  assigned_to: 
    description: Assignee
    is_active: !!perl/scalar:JSON::PP::Boolean 1
    type: 0
  assignee_idle: 
    description: Time Since Assignee Touched
    is_active: !!perl/scalar:JSON::PP::Boolean 1
    type: 0
...
version: 4.2.5


Expected results:

!!perl/scalar:JSON::PP::Boolean 1 is not expected in the result.

This is the YAML output, which is for debugging purposes only. You need to ask BzAPI for JSON output. See:
