Something went wrong

server_error

The service didn't respond as expected. Try again, or check the status page if this persists.

What this means​

The service, or ComputeSphere, answered with an error that has no more specific error code.

How to fix it​

Try again in a moment. If it keeps happening, check status.computesphere.com and contact support with the request ID from the answer.

Retry behavior​

Safe to retry after a short wait.

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/server_error",
  "title":   "Something went wrong",
  "status":  500,
  "code":    "server_error",
  "detail":  "The service didn't respond as expected. Try again, or check the status page if this persists.",
  "instance": "/v2/…",
  "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.
