[EP-tech] EPrints CRUD module returning a 500 error

Hi all,


I'm attempting to create a new EPrints record using the CRUD module. To test that I can access the repository, I'm using the example provided in the documentation. When I run the command from my terminal, I get the following response:


HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error

Date: Thu, 23 Jun 2016 11:17:13 GMT

Server: Apache

Location: http://w01.eprintstest.da.ulcc.ac.uk/id/eprint/5252

Content-Length: 616

Connection: close

Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1


<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">

<title>500 Internal Server Error</title>

</head><body>

<h1>Internal Server Error</h1>

<p>The server encountered an internal error or

misconfiguration and was unable to complete

your request.</p>


Weirdly, it returns a 500 Internal Server Error, yet it creates the EPrint record and puts it into the buffer. When I check the Apache logs, I see the following error message:


"Can't call method "param" on an undefined value at /perl_lib/EPrints/Apache/CRUD.pm line 1423"


When I review /perl_lib/EPrints/Apache/CRUD.pm line 1423, I see the following: 


return $self->send_response( HTTP_CREATED, $atom->param( "mimetype" ), $atom->output_dataobj( $items[0] ), );


Has anybody seen this error before? If so, could you point me in the direction of a possible solution?

Thanks! :)

Cheers,

Andrew
