Test suite started to fail (withJSON::XS 4.0?)

eserte commented 5 years ago

On my smokers I see the following test failures:

#   Failed test 'Invalid object sent for serialization returns undef'
#   at t/core.t line 54.
#          got: '"asdf"'
#     expected: undef

#   Failed test 'Bad encode sets proper errstr'
#   at t/core.t line 55.
#          got: ''
#     expected: 'hash- or arrayref expected (not a simple scalar, use allow_nonref to allow this)'
# Looks like you failed 2 tests of 24.
t/core.t ...... 
Dubious, test returned 2 (wstat 512, 0x200)
Failed 2/24 subtests 

#   Failed test 'Scalar context for /put_invalid_json bails before request'

Failed 3/35 subtests

This seems to happen if the newest version of JSON::XS (4.0) is installed.

I am also getting this error.

I cannot confirm that it is related to JSON::XS but I have version 4.02 installed.

My JSON::XS 4.02 came in as a CPAN dependency, possibly from trying to install JSON::API via CPAN as I could not find a package for it.

I removed the JSON::XS 4.02 and installed the vendor package. Now I have version 3.01 and the CPAN install for JSON::API works.

Linux Mint 18.2 Sonya based on Debian Stretch.
