collect/ endpoint query for conan PURL with non-existent version returns 'Server Error (500)'

[johnmhoran]

Using the local collect/ endpoint to populate my local DB, if I search for a conan type with a version that does not exist, I get a Server Error (500). This does not happen with at least some of the other supported types in the CollectViewSet() class list.

• For example, according to the ConanCenter, the only version of alpaca is 0.2.1, and a query for 0.3.0 (/api/collect/?purl=pkg:conan/[email protected]) throws the error.

• OTOH, NPM tells me the latest version for log4j is 6.9.1, and a query for 7.0.0 (/api/collect/?purl=pkg:npm/[email protected]) returns a JSON object informing me that the package does not exist.

GET /api/collect/?purl=pkg:npm/[email protected]

}

• Similar result for the MVN Repository, which tells me the latest version of Jackson Databind is 2.17.2 and responds to a collect/ query for 2.20.0 with
