mod_rest: Catch and log errors in callback promise chain From the code it looks like it should be possible to reply to an error stanza, but it did not. Turns out I was saved by my local developer mode module which throws errors if an attempt is made to create an errror reply to an error stanza. However nothing collects this error from the promise, so all I got was confusion.

Details
=======

mod_invites_register_web implements a web-based registration form that
validates invite tokens. It also supports guiding the user through client
download and configuration via mod_register_apps.

There is no specific configuration for this module (though it uses the
optional `site_name` to override the displayed site name.

You may also set `webchat_url` to the URL of a web chat that will be linked
to after successful registration. If not specified but mod_conversejs is loaded
on the current host, it will default to the URL of that module.

This module depends on mod_invites_page solely for the case where an invalid
invite token is received - it will redirect to mod_invites_page so that an
appropriate error can be served to the user.
