Description Ian Springer 2011-11-16 17:56:32 UTC

I went to a Resource detail view and then quickly clicked on the Dashboard link to navigate away before the Resource detail view had finished loading. I got the following globally uncaught exception:

java.lang.NullPointerException:null

Comment 1 Ian Springer 2012-02-15 15:28:26 UTC

Fixed in master:

http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=rhq/rhq.git;a=commitdiff;h=b93446c

We now detect the condition and log a gwt DEBUG message like the following, rather than displaying an error message + stack trace to the user:

[INFO] (CoreGUI.java:160) 2012-02-15 10:21:49,493 [DEBUG] User navigated to view [Reports] before view [Resource/10079] was done rendering - rendering of view [Resource/10079] has been aborted.

QE, note, you would need to look at the browser's JavaScript console to see the DEBUG message.

Comment 2 Charles Crouch 2012-02-21 17:30:29 UTC

Setting Target Release correctly.

Comment 5 Heiko W. Rupp 2013-09-01 10:00:36 UTC

Bulk closing of items that are on_qa and in old RHQ releases, which are out for a long time and where the issue has not been re-opened since.
