BUG: Invalid json

Proxmox 8.4
File: /usr/share/perl5/PVE/Ceph/Services.pm

Getting this error in syslog:
Apr 09 12:59:26 office-pmvm-01 pvestatd[2410388]: malformed JSON string, neither tag, array, object, number, string or atom, at character offset 0 (before "(end of string)") at /usr/share/perl5/PVE/Ceph/Services.pm line 57.

I changed like 59 from warn $@ to use Carp::cluck for a backtrace


This happens when you do:
service pve-cluster restart

Thank you for your report!

Can you describe your cluster? And do you have ceph (server) setup on all nodes?

 

[t.lamprecht]

And as you already added the Caro, can you please include the raw string that is tried to be parsed as json? Like e.g. adding the following line before the eval/decode_json line.

warn "'" . $old->{$nodename} . "'";
