Cannot delete project if corrupted

[magdmartin]

I can delete corrupted project from OpenRefine interface but not using the openrefine-client. I have the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi @magdmartin,

I don't know exactly how to reproduce the error. Projects detected as "corrupted" at startup are renamed in the workspace directory (e.g. 1761702727570.project.corrupted) and are then no longer visible via the OpenRefine interface, right? Do you have a hint how I can create a fresh corrupted project for testing? :-)

The difference to the OpenRefine interface could be the initialization of the project via the RefineProject() class in the delete() function which triggers get_models(). That would be this line in the log:

File "/home/felix/openrefine-client/google/refine/refine.py", line 409, in get_models

We could test if the error does not occur with plain curl. Note to self:

curl --data project="1761702727570" "http://localhost:3333/command/core/delete-project?csrf_token=$(curl -s http://localhost:3333/command/core/get-csrf-token | cut -d '"' -f 4)"

Is this error an important problem for your use case or did you just want to let me know?
