Unable to get Configuration via API since upgrade to 8.1.15-h3

aii — Mon, 13 Jul 2020 07:46:32 GMT

Hello,

we get a backup daily via API.

After the Patch we gat an error but I cannot find out what happens.

I only get this Output

<response status="error"><result><msg><line><outfile>/opt/pancfg/session/pan/user_tmp/8450601867371404/opresult.out.10322</outfile></line></msg></result></response>

no errorcode or something else.

Has anyone an Idea how to find out whats going on?

Hello,

this is a bug. Until it is fixed, you can use alternative API call:

.../api/?type=op&cmd=<show><config><running/></config></show>&key=XXX

instead of

.../api/?type=config&action=show&key=XXX

(which is broken in 8.1.15)
