{"success":false}

Hi! Whenever I try to submit something with Staticman, it fails with just {"success":false}.

staticman.yml: https://github.com/StratofortressDNS/Domain-Requests/blob/master/staticman.yml

Form (site’s on custom DNS): https://github.com/StratofortressDNS/tools/blob/master/register.html#L23

I recently had this problem, and it was due to ReCaptcha. It turned out that I encrypted my ReCaptcha secret with the public staticman instance, so then obviously my private instance didn’t know how to decrypt the value.

The real issue here though is that more details about the error don’t get returned back through the web response, so I think that error handling code needs to be updated a bit. For me, getSiteConfig() in this line was failing and throwing an exception, which was getting caught and sent to the sendResponse function in this line. The issue is that the sendResponse only attaches error details if it’s a known error, due to the logic of the if statement in this line. So it seems the solution is we want to attach the error details back in the response, even when it’s an unknown type of error.

I’m going to take a crack at a PR to fix this, but my javascript skills are 10+ years rusty, so we’ll see how it goes. If I’m unable to get to it, at least I’ve posted the details of what changes are needed for someone else to do it 😃

Hi guys,

I was trying to use staticman and came across the same problem. I copied the sample config file from the repo and got the same error, {"success":false}.

After changing everything once and again, I finally noticed that my staticman.yml file was not well formatted: the last line, email: md5, was not correctly indented (it appeared at the beginning of the line). That happened when I copied and pasted the code directly from the normal GitHub file view; when I switched to the raw view of the file in GitHub, the copy & paste worked like a charm (the last line was correctly indented).

I hope it helps!!
