Getting the following error running knife tidy server report --node-threshold 60 after a knife tidy clean has been run.
Currently the xxxorg has 0 nodes in it.

Organization: xxxorg ERROR: SystemStackError: stack level too deep

@lcc2207 sorry that you're not able to run the report.

To help me understand what's happening please share the stacktrace. You may need to add -VV flags onto the knife command.

lcc2207 commented 6 years ago

the out put is extremely large is there something in the output I can possibly parse out?

@lcc2207 run the knife command with -VV (extra verbosity) then send the part that is the stack strace. It would look something like:

That tells me what library, method and even which line number was executing when the error was generated.
