The root cause of this bug was an unhandled exception in the
onResponse
method for the_cat/indices
endpoint that resulted in completion of neither the response nor failure methods of the REST handler. Adding a try-catch around the code in theonResponse
method resolves this specific problem.Backport of #56993
