Error when trying to view users

[kazepworld]

Every time I try to access the "Users" tab in the Fusion Auth admin panel, I get an "Error" popup with no more details. The exact text is "FusionAuth encountered an error while processing your request. If the problem persists, contact FusionAuth support for assistance.". I see no errors in the console.

I'm running fusion auth with docker.

OS: Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS
Fusion Auth version: 1.18.2
Docker version: 18.09.6, build 481bc77

When you say you see no errors in the console, do you mean the terminal where you are running docker?

Or do you mean the browser console?

Or both?

[kazepworld]

I get no errors in the terminal where I'm running docker, I just checked the browser for errors and I get:

Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 400 ()

This is the request URL:
{fauth_link}/ajax/user/search?s.sortFields%5B0%5D.name=login&s.sortFields%5B0%5D.order=asc&s.sortFields%5B1%5D.name=fullName&s.sortFields%5B1%5D.order=asc

[dan]

Hmmm. This may be a bug.

Can you give more information about:

• what browser you are using (and does this occur in other browsers)
• what data, if any, you've added to the default fusionauth setup. In particular, did you add a user? What does their data look like?

Screenshots are welcome too .

An alternative to this forum discussion, if you can provide concrete replication steps, is to open a bug here: https://github.com/fusionauth/fusionauth-issues But again, that is only a good option if we have narrowed down the bug to a certain set of steps.

[kazepworld]

@dan This issue happens on Chrome (Version 84.0.4147.89 (Official Build) (64-bit)) and Safari as-well. The data of user contains user information, such as phone number, address, and just a bunch of short strings (street name, etc.) Let me know if there are some steps I could take to provide you with more debugging information.

[dan]

Hmmm. Does the user data have any special characters? Which database are you using (I assume just postgresql if you are using the docker containers)?

[kazepworld]

@dan I am using PostgreSQL, indeed. I don't think the data has any special character to cause this issue, but I could check this out.

Got an exception in the console finally:

What version of elastic search are you using?

How many users do you plan to have? You may want to try switching to the database search engine: https://fusionauth.io/docs/v1/tech/tutorials/switch-search-engines and see if that resolves the issue?

[kazepworld]

I'm using Elastic Search 6.3.1, currently having less than 20 users. I switched to use database search instead of Elastic. I'll switch back to elastic later.

[dan]

Interesting. That is a supported version of Elasticsearch (per https://fusionauth.io/docs/v1/tech/installation-guide/system-requirements ).

If/when you switch back, please try to re-index and see if that solves the issue: https://fusionauth.io/docs/v1/tech/core-concepts/users#reindex

Just to confirm, did switching to the database search engine resolve the issue?

[kazepworld]

@dan Yes, switching to database search engine solved my issue.

@dan

Hello,

I am happy that I got the answer for my doubt by going through the conversation.

thank you so much.
