Error Code : 500 Http Failure Response

Hello ,

Using Open Source Metabase, I am encountering a recurring issue when embedding Metabase dashboards into our application. After making changes in Metabase (such as updating dashboards or permissions), the embedded view fails and displays the following error:

Something went wrong...
Error Code: 500
Message: Http failure response for 
https://uat2.subrosource.com/api/dashboard/v1/metabase:team: 
500 Internal Server Error

  • Metabase Version: v0.50.10

Questions:

  1. What could cause a 500 error ?

  2. Are there recommended steps to debug this in Metabase logs?

  3. Could this be related to permissions or token expiration?

Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

The log should have the exception that resulted in the 500 status code. Post it here and we can help figure out what happened.

Metabase 50 is very old, you may want to consider upgrading to something more recent. There’s been many changes to embedding in the intervening time.

[otel_trace_id=1bca055b538f771081d2793eb369811c] Error in dashboard resource 'get'
com.trumbull.phx.dashboard.service.api.DashboardException: Error while invoking the task to pull the Dashboard content 13

Sorry, I meant the exception from the Metabase log.

Updated the same in my previous reply.

This is your app, not Metabase. Metabase exceptions are usually thrown from ‘java.’ or ‘clojure.’, not ‘com.trumbull.’

Look in the Metabase UI under Admin → Tools → Logs.
