Describe the bug and the command you saw an issue with I am trying to execute cf repo-plugins -r CF-Community but fails with

Getting plugins from repository 'CF-Community' ... Logged errors: Invalid json data from 'CF-Community' - invalid character '<' looking for beginning of value

list of configured plugins repo urls:

cf list-plugin-repos
OK

Repo Name      URL
CF-Community   https://plugins.cloudfoundry.org

https://plugins.cloudfoundry.org is accessible through web browser

With set env CF_TRACE=1 doesn't show any additional details

Expected behavior It supposed to return list of available plugins for installation.

Still having these issues on cf version 8.7.7+583a09a.2023-12-26, using WSL / Ubuntu 22.04.3.

Any updates as to what is causing this? We're effectively blocked.

[mjyeaney]

Appreciate the links - any idea when these would be released?

[mjyeaney]

Bumping again...any updates on a release for this fix?

@mjyeaney I am not sure do you know but "cf install-plugin " works and plugins available in community repo will be downloaded and installed without issues. So only listing functionality is broken.

@theghost5800 Confirmed - appreciate the insights. Our build script stopped at a list check and we assumed all other repo operations were disrupted as well. Thank you!
