Error fetching jobs (UI)

Author: shurthCreated Sep 17, 2026Updated Sep 17, 2026

Nomad version

2.0.6 (also affected 2.0.5)

Operating system and Environment details

Ubuntu 26.0x

Issue

When I leave the web ui open for a couple minutes, I eventually end up with a toast message that says the following:


Error fetching jobs The backend returned an error with status undefined while fetching jobs

Browser is Microsoft Edge and the console logs have the following originating from "nomad-ui-51f754e9ed66e01e82d41c2dfdc06d80.js:2108":

error fetching job allocs SyntaxError: Unexpected token 'A', "AbortError"... is not valid JSON at JSON.parse () at vendor-4b3e7c408fb42152a83056755a483c83.js:3568:12 at vendor-4b3e7c408fb42152a83056755a483c83.js:3570:10 at async a.ajax (vendor-4b3e7c408fb42152a83056755a483c83.js:3531:78)

Once this happens, a full refresh is required to get updates in the ui again.

Reproduction steps

I wish I could provide detailed steps, but for me, I just leave it open on the jobs page and eventually it happens. I do have about 30 jobs running (all green, no errors).

Expected Result

Jobs ui continues to update without toast message.

Actual Result

Jobs ui gives error after minutes and ceases functioning.
