BUG in createNode() for custom types?

mabayona — Thu, 15 May 2008 18:40:24 GMT

IÂ´ve found out what seems to be a bug the createNode() JS function (in 2.9 at least). If you define custom types (both for cm:content and cm:folder subtypes) e.g. <type name="myModel:myType"> <title>My custom Type</title> <parent>cm:folder</parent> <

After some research on open and closed issues, IÂ´ve found out that AR-1066 adderesses this bug and reports it as solved.

I think it is not solved (at least not in 2.9), since when creating a node using the createNode() JS function for custom types (both derived from cm:content and cm:folder) the created nodes are NOT COMPLETE since not all the default properties are created (e.g. source) and some others. This no t only the mandatory properties of the custom types, but also some standard properties as well.

For instance, when creating a file for a custom type, the created file is not complete and has the following problems:

- When clicking in the (i) ball in the document browser (to see doc details) the following error is returned: "500 Failed to execute method: NodeInfoBean.sendNodeInfo. Exception in Transaction."

- When navigating to the node (using admins Node Browser in admin console) the node is not complete and e.g. node name is replaced by a node-id like string.

I think that AR-1066 should be reopened.

After further research in JIRA, it seems that this bug has to do as well with:

http://issues.alfresco.com/browse/ETWOTWO-327

which is open and recent. But instead of for the JS addNode() function, it has also to do with the JS createNode() as well.

Do we need a new entry in JIRA or can we add it to ETWOTWO-327?

I have the same problem with 3.0 stable.
My custom property are correctly shown, but the standards are missing in the detail sheet (like title or description)

http://issues.alfresco.com/browse/ETWOTWO-327 is currently minor priority with no votes.
Which is perhaps why its remained unresolved for so long.

Certainly add comments to the issues that concern you (thats a far more effective way of getting fixes than these forums)
and consider voting for it or increasing its priority. And it certainly helps if there is a contributed fix.
