Step 1: Tried to add ID to this observation and got this error.
Step 2: Maybe this was a temporary thing as I just tried again and it worked. (Wasn’t temporary, see below. What was different was that it worked when I didn’t copy in the placeholder text.)
This is the error I get from the Identify page. If I try adding an ID by opening the observation and adding an ID, it appears to add then the ID disappears and an error “Failed to save” or something appears.
However, I just tried again and it worked. What was different each time it worked was that I didn’t not copy in the placeholder - I just added the ID. When I copied in the placeholder text, the errors appeared.
I got this same error popup the other day but I can’t actually remember what caused it and it only happened once. For those struggling to interpret the message, it says “Internal Server Error” once you remove all the "error: " copies
Thanks for this bug report. On Tuesday we deployed some changes that were likely responsible for this. I saw an error effecting Identifications on observations that had no ID, where the ID was of a species, and where the ID contained some remark text. We just recently released a fix so those types of IDs should no longer generate errors. If folks could try again and report any other problems adding IDs, that would be appreciated. Apologies for the problem, and thanks again for bringing it to our attention
