Hi,

Hello Usman,

looks as if inside the testlink server itself happen something unexpected - maybe tl py api call a method not yet supported by your tl server?

• which TL server version and which tl api py release are you suing?
• could you see inside your tl server logs events / errors / warnings, where timestamp matches to observed 409 conflict issues?

I'm using TL server version: 1.9.18 and where can I find the API py release?
also, I can not find any logs related to the 409 conflict issue and the issue with the logs is that I am getting delayed logs, so it's hard for me to judge when the exception is throwing what. Is there any way you can help?

Hello Usman,

Which API py release matches to which TL server version is documented in CHANGES.rst

You find there TL 1.18 not listed, cause it was , when I remember correct, very fast replaced by a not well running 1.19 and afterwards with 1.20, which current is maintained on testlink_1_9_20_fixed.

You find your current used API py release in src/testlink/version.py

Regards Luiko
