Question by ezydvd_au · Aug 16, 2018 at 10:24 PM · bug reportupdateoffercreate or replace inventory itemuser errorsystem error

Error The description value is invalid. A description is required constantly appear for no reasons

@shulmani_developer.support

Hi,

On eBay production, we have so many products and offers failed of updating because of error The description value is invalid. A description is required. But I can't see anything wrong in the description string though the error message seems meaning my description field is missing.

This has happened on both createOrReplaceInventoryItem and updateOffer APIs.

They sometimes through error of A system error has occurred. Core Inventory Service internal error or A system error has occurred. Internal System Error or A user error has occurred. Internal error to the application. or A system error has occurred. without any parameters to indicate the problems.

Here is an example:

"Michael Haller is a Los Angeles criminal defence attorney who operates out of the back of his Lincoln sedan. Haller has spent most of his career defending garden-variety criminals until he lands the case of his career: defending a Beverly Hills playboy accused of rape and attempted murder. But the seemingly straightforward case suddenly develops into a deadly game of survival for Haller. Based on the best-selling novel by Michael Connelly."
