Got Error invoking remote method 'send-http-request': SyntaxError: Unexpected token ':'

[ShinoharaHaruna]

I have checked the following:

• [X] I use the newest version of bruno.
• [X] I've searched existing issues and found nothing related to my issue.

Describe the bug

As shown in the screenshot, when I tried to send a request to test a login rest API, the response in Bruno is an error. However, the request was actually successfully sent and a JWT token string should be in response.

The request has nothing but a JSON body.

.bru file to reproduce the bug

No response

Got similar error in v1.13.0:

Error invoking remote method 'send-http-request': ReferenceError: setEnvVar is not defined

I tried to downgrade to v1.12.3, it didn't occur there.

Looks like it's still going to happen on v1.12.3

Besides, I've tried AppImage version and Deb version, and the issue is the same.

Are you seeing something like this?

Got a similar regression upgrading from 1.12.3 to 1.13.1, firing some requests displays ReferenceError and triggers a dozen AbortionError in the console

I'll run a few tests to try and pinpoint which part of the request triggers these errors

EDIT: For me it's bru.getEnvName() in the pre-request script that's throwing an uncaught exception, dug into the diff between 1.12 and 1.13 to no avail :(

EDIT 2: Accessing bru.envVariables.__name__ does not throw but calling bru.getEnvName() does 🙃 I'm stuck

EDIT 3: Here's the stack in case it helps

@pavan-world @ClementValot I actually saw more like what Pavan saw in #2103. Just got a plain flat error in the Response panel after firing a request, without any other errors thrown in the console from any JS file.

Obviously I use bru.setEnvVar in the Pre Request script of my collection, but I believe it doesn't even get to that line of code yet. As of now, v1.13 is unusable for me, hence the downgrading to v1.12.

[pavan-world]

I am able to run the same collection in both 1.12.3 and 1.13.1 same time clearly 1.13.1 is throwing the error

"Error invoking remote method 'send-http-request': ReferenceError: setEnvVar is not defined"

looks like the console error exists in both versions...

[pavan-world]

with more testing,

bru.getEnvName()

is causing error in 1.13.1

bru.getEnvName()

is causing error in 1.13.1

Aw ye, I can confirm this! 😮

@pavan-world Would it make sense then to change the title of your issue #2103 to attract more attention, e.g. "Calling bru.getEnvName() in collection's script threw "Error invoking remote method 'send-http-request': ReferenceError: setEnvVar is not defined"", and update the description with your screenshot above (I don't think those errors you saw in the console are relevant tho)?

I just wonder why not so many are reporting this issue up till now 🤔

[helloanoop]

We'll be release a fix for this issue today. We are also adding this into our regression test suite so that we catch these errors in the future

[pavan-world]

looks like this issue is not resolved yet..!

[ClementValot]

Let's let Anoop work his magic 😊

If you need a workaround in the meantime you can substitute bru.getEnvName() with bru.envVariables.__name__

[pavan-world]

this issue is resolved with v1.14.0

[BoilingSoup]

I tried snap package 1.18.0 and AppImage 1.18.1

They both run into this problem immediately
