Hi,

while setting up director, I accidentally used a wrong password for my director API user.
The message showing up in UI is "Parsing JSON result failed: Syntax error" which is not so user friendly ;-) See screenshot below.

Regards,
Marianne

• Status changed from New to Assigned
• Assigned to set to tgelf

Unfortunately Icinga2 ships kind of HTML instead of JSON in this case in response to my API request. I'll implement a workaround catching this, providing a better error message.

Cheers,
Thomas
