This Web API action returns an HTTP 500 (Internal Server Error) status code:
public IHttpActionResult Post()
{
return InternalServerError();
}
But this action returns an HTTP 400 (Bad Request) status code:
public IHttpActionResult Post()
{
return InternalServerError(new Exception());
}
I would expect both actions to return a 500 status code and the second action puts some of the error's details in the response body.
My first thought is that this is a bug but I wanted to get some other input. Is there any good reason why a 400 should be returned in the second action instead of a 500?
UPDATE:
The documentation on this method reads:
Creates an System.Web.Http.Results.ExceptionResult (500 Internal Server Error) with the specified exception.
I'm thinking more and more this is a bug.
