G'day. I spun up a Kratos instance using the quickstart (using Postgres). Works fine, so was trying some other stuff. I `exec`ed into the Postgres image, installed
curl
, and called
Copy code
curl -s <http://kratos:4434/identities/c8d98079-c6c0-49e1-a034-92fa2269724b>
Nicely returned my identity (created by following the quickstart). Then I edited the JSON and tried updating it. Only I forgot to copy the file first, so
-d @file.json
just inserted an empty file. This caused Kratos to return an internal server error
How to replicate:
Copy code
curl -v -X PUT <http://kratos:4434/identities/c8d98079-c6c0-49e1-a034-92fa2269724b> -H "Accept: application/json" -d @~/Downloads/david.json
Output:

I suspect kratos doesn't know how to handle an empty file.
Course, now that I figured out the problem I uploaded my file to the container and it worked great! So I don't actually need help getting it to work and should probably turn this into a GH issue. I'll go do that.
