Description Corey Welton 2008-12-17 05:29:00 UTC 
I can't reproduce this steadily, but I have had it occur twice in the last five minutes, in the same area of the UI.

Basically, I get an error 500 with an indication that there is something bad with the software license validation.

Steps to repro (which may or may not work)

1. Navigate to $system > RHQ Server, JBossAS 4.2.1.GA default (0.0.0.0:2099)
2. Visit Inventory for RHQ server
3. Click edit to try and modify some of the connection properties.  
4. Make a change, perhaps invalid, to a given field.  Examples of ones I used that worked:
* Binding Address   -   0.0.0.0xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ; submit
* Start Script - mark the checkbox, unmark (Resulting in blank field); submit
5. View results.

Expected results:
Nothing out of the ordinary -- perhaps a validation error, but nothing /weird/.

Current results:

Very occasional error 500 talking about bad license.  I was not able to repeat with either of the above examples, but it did happen with both, within 5 minutes of each other.

See attached.

Additional note:  If it even matters, the server providing the UI was listed as in 'maintenance' mode in HA.  May be a red herring however.

Partha is also seeing this with RHQ HEAD as of today.

Temporarily adding the keyword "SubBug" so we can be sure we have accounted for all the bugs.
