Critical Description of problem:
After selecting an Ansible Automation Platform credential when creating/editing an automation template or creating/editing a policy automation, data fails to be fetched from Ansible Tower to list job or workflow job templates and inventories.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
MCE 2.0 - MCE 2.3
How reproducible:
Always
Additional info:
This problem occurs when the Node.js version is 18.14.0 or higher, which is the case in recent builds of both upstream and downstream images for Node.js v18. The problem is not present in any released versions of MCE but is preventing us from updating the base images to the latest, which may be required soon due to drops in container grade.
The problem might actually be on the Ansible Tower side, revealed by bug fixes in Node.js. The error we get in the backend varies slightly depending on the Ansible Tower instance we are connecting to.
