Hi,I am very happy with the new Regenerate Renditions Wizard in Alfresco WCM. However it does not always work for me.First I encountered the following error when I tried to run the wizard on a particular Web Project:javax.faces.FacesException: Cannot get value for expression '#{WizardManager.bean.fo

The error however is not shown. I will look at what the Alfresco log has to say a.s.a.p.

The Alfresco log file says the following:

Edgar -

Glad you like the new feature … now, let's resolve these bugs before 2.1.0 Enterprise!

Can you file these bugs at http://issues.alfresco.com? I will follow-up with our Engineering team to look into these and see about getting resolved before our Enterprise release.

Before 2.1.0 Community as well? 😉

In other words: will you guys resolve these bugs in the HEAD branch of Subversion so that they end up in the nightly builds?

Yes, I know we should get a commercial license.. That is out of my hands however..

Can you file these bugs at http://issues.alfresco.com?

Ok. Will do.

I created the following issues:
- Regenerate Renditions Wizard fails on a particular Web Form with NullPointerException
- Regenerate Renditions Wizard fails when I remove a Web Form from the Data Dictionary
- Regenerate Renditions Wizard shows incorrect number of renditions

Good luck in solving them!

And, oh yes, the first issue is a bit of a blocker for us.. Manually updating all renditions is simply not feasible when you have 30+ content items based on a particular Web Form. So temporary workarounds for that issue are also much appreciated.

cheers,

Edgar

Edgar:

I expect we'll be able to solve these issues. Please stay tuned to JIRA for updates.
