Internal error

internal_error

Something went wrong on our side while handling the request. It is not caused by what you sent.

What this means

An unexpected fault in ComputeSphere. The answer carries a request_id that identifies this request in our records.

How to fix it

Try again. If it keeps happening, contact support and include the request_id from the answer.

Retry behavior

Safe to retry a read. For a change, check whether it was applied before sending it again.

How it appears in the response

ComputeSphere returns errors as RFC 7807 Problem Details. The type field is the docs URL for this page — switch on code in your client.

{
  "type":    "https://docs.computesphere.com/errors/internal_error",
  "title":   "Internal error",
  "status":  500,
  "code":    "internal_error",
  "detail":  "Something went wrong on our side while handling the request. It is not caused by what you sent.",

  "request_id": "f47ac10b-58cc-4372-a567-0e02b2c3d479",
  "trace_id":   null
}

The Content-Type header is application/problem+json. On field-level validation errors a non-empty errors[] array also appears, each entry carrying its own docs_url for the offending field.
