I have following python code

https://github.com/salikhanan/my_login_testing/blob/master/login_app/api.py

Here when a put request is made to update user data It throws

<title>500 Internal Server Error</title>

while it works fine when a get request is made to retrieve data for a single user. Can someone see what is wrong with PUT ? I would really appreciate it. I saw this project online to learn automation but I got myself stuck with this error.

CodePudding user response：

The 500 is probably due to an exception being raised and not caught in your application code. You should run your app in development mode:

export FLASK_ENV=development

.. then start the server with flask run. Now when you get the error, you will see in the browser a traceback pointing out the exact statement which is raising an exception.
