Description

Hi All, I am actually following the mcp tutorials from MCP official documentation. After creating the server . It is throwing error saying "Received exception from stream: 1 validation error for JSONRPCMessage " . I tried to create it simple server from different tutorial . The same error is repeating .

[02/15/26 20:14:37] ERROR Received exception from stream: 1 validation error for JSONRPCMessage server.py:700 Invalid JSON: EOF while parsing a value at line 2 column 0 [type=json_invalid, input_value='\n', input_type=str] For further information visit https://errors.pydantic.dev/2.12/v/json_invalid {"method":"notifications/message","params":{"level":"error","logger":"mcp.server.exception_handler","data":"Internal Server Error"},"jsonrpc":"2.0"}
