Hi Ron,

Can you share more details? Which rundeck and  RD CLI versions are you using?

Regards!

redhat 9

rundeck-5.9.0.20250205-1
rundeck-cli-2.0.8-1

I tried to replicate the issue on a test VM -  however on turning of SSL / certificate  verification it worked on my test VM

on the one I want to get working when I turn off SSL / certificate verification I get the error ....

com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.MismatchedInputException: No content to map due to end-of-input

Hi Ron,

Is this happening only when you launch that command? Can you test a simple rd system info command? Also, try with the latest RD CLI version at this moment (2.0.9, released yesterday).

The error occurs because the server’s response to the project creation request is empty (no JSON body), but the client code always tries to parse a JSON object from the response. If the Rundeck server returns HTTP 204 (No Content) or a 200 with an empty body, the Jackson library throws this exception. This could be a bug.

Regards.
