Old, mis-filed bug. Mike, I think this was meant to report an issue with the webui, can you triage this? This bug has been closed due to inactivity. Please open a new bug with specific details if this problem is still occurring or if an enhancement is needed. |
Description of problem: macros should be able to provide default values, but don't seem to. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.0.1 How reproducible: very Steps to Reproduce: 1. create Custom Info tag named "asset" 2. create config channel file w/ following macro cut and pasted from Docs: asset={@ rhn.system.custom_info(asset) = 'Asset #' @} 3. submit edits Actual results: top of page error: Invalid macro function name in file contents: 'Asset #' Expected results: clean submission of edits Additional info: surprisingly, seems to be whitespace dependent... if new line is removed (and possible offending '#' metacharacter is removed): asset={@ rhn.system.custom_info(asset) = 'Asset default' @} error messgae becomes: Invalid macro token in file contents: rhn.system.custom_info(asset) = 'Asset default' if default value is removed: asset={@ rhn.system.custom_info(asset) @} all is fine.
