configureApp fails with error in rlang::abort()

[suresh-advaitabio]

I am trying to set size with configureApp and it fails with rlang::abort()

> rsconnect::configureApp("asc_seurat", size="xlarge")
Error in `rlang::abort()`:
! `message` must be a character vector, not a list.
Run `rlang::last_trace()` to see where the error occurred
> rlang::last_trace(drop = FALSE)

The json$error does not look to be set on this type of error. Maybe all shinyapps.io errors?

The same error happens with an unknown "size" value.

rsconnect::configureApp(..., size = "fooey")

[aronatkins]

@suresh-advaitabio - does the shinyapps.io UI let you assign an xlarge instance type?

Could you share the version of rsconnect?

packageVersion("rsconnect")

[suresh-advaitabio]

It's the error from subscription. I think shinyapps needs to set up a better way of handling subscription errors.

[aronatkins]

Reopening, because rsconnect should do a better job of displaying the errors from shinyapps.io.

The problem is coming from https://github.com/rstudio/rsconnect/blob/main/R/http.R#L153 — I probably assumed that the error field was a simple string, but it's clearly something more complex.

@suresh-advaitabio what do you mean by error from the subscription? did you manage to fix it? I am having exactly the same issue
