<h3 id="summary-problem-motivation">Problem/Motivation</h3>
<p>The Update API endpoint <a href="https://updates.drupal.org/release-history/drupal/current">https://updates.drupal.org/release-history/drupal/current</a> is returning an error instead of the Drupal core release history. This causes the Update module and Package Manager module to fail when checking for Drupal core updates.</p>
<p><strong>Error Response:</strong></p>
<p><?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><br>
<error>No release history was found for the requested project (drupal).</error></p>
<p>This appears to be the same issue that was reported and supposedly fixed in August 2024 (see #3470260).</p>
<p><strong>Steps to Reproduce</strong><br>
Run: curl <a href="https://updates.drupal.org/release-history/drupal/current">https://updates.drupal.org/release-history/drupal/current</a><br>
Observe the error response instead of valid XML release data</p>
<p><strong>Expected Behavior</strong><br>
The endpoint should return valid XML with Drupal core release information, similar to:</p>
<p><a href="https://updates.drupal.org/release-history/drupal/all">https://updates.drupal.org/release-history/drupal/all</a> (works correctly)<br>
<a href="https://updates.drupal.org/release-history/token/current">https://updates.drupal.org/release-history/token/current</a> (works correctly for contrib)</p>
<p><strong>Actual Behavior</strong><br>
<a href="https://updates.drupal.org/release-history/drupal/current">https://updates.drupal.org/release-history/drupal/current</a> → Error<br>
<a href="https://updates.drupal.org/release-history/drupal/11.x">https://updates.drupal.org/release-history/drupal/11.x</a> → Error<br>
<a href="https://updates.drupal.org/release-history/drupal/all">https://updates.drupal.org/release-history/drupal/all</a> → Works</p>
<p><strong>Impact</strong><br>
This causes the following issues on Drupal sites:</p>
<ol>
<li>Update module: Shows “No available releases found” for Drupal core</li>
<li>Package Manager module: Throws PHP warnings:</li>
</ol>
<pre>Warning: Undefined array key "project_status" in <br>Drupal\package_manager\ProjectInfo->getInstallableReleases() <br>(line 96 of core/modules/package_manager/src/ProjectInfo.php)</pre><ol>
<li>Automatic Updates module: Cannot function properly due to missing release data</li>
<li>Status report: Shows errors preventing administrators from viewing system status</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Environment</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Drupal CMS 1.2.8 (Drupal Core 11.3.1)</li>
<li>PHP 8.3.25</li>
<li>Date observed: December 25, 2025</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Workaround</strong><br>
Currently, the only workaround is to:</p>
<ol>
<li>Uninstall automatic_updates and package_manager modules</li>
<li>Use Composer for update checks: composer outdated "drupal/*"</li>
</ol>
