Getting error http request failed: null when using path in karate

I'm starting to use karate for testing, but when I use the "path" keyword, I receive a "http request failed: null" error.

When using the following scenario, it works:

Feature: items

Scenario: Testing /items response status
    Given url appBaseUrl + '/items'
    And param param1 = 1
    And param param2 = 10
    When method get
    Then status 200

But when I try using the "path" keyword like in the following code, I end up getting the error

Feature: items

Scenario: Testing /items response status
    Given url appBaseUrl
    And path 'items'
    And param param1 = 1
    And param param2 = 10
    When method get
    Then status 200

items.feature:8 - null
com.intuit.karate.exception.KarateException: items.feature:8 - null
    at ✽.When method GET (items.feature:8)

I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Is there some additional step that needs to be done and that I'm missing?

There must be something else going on, because this should work. Try this for example:

* def appBaseUrl = 'http://httpbin.org/anything'

Given url appBaseUrl
And path 'items'
And param param1 = 1
And param param2 = 10
When method get
Then status 200

Works fine on my system.

So I suggest you follow this process: https://github.com/intuit/karate/wiki/How-to-Submit-an-Issue

EDIT: this was indeed a bug: https://github.com/intuit/karate/issues/760 - and using karate-jersey is a workaround until the fix
