Description Nuno Santos 2003-10-23 20:00:29 UTC
Description of problem:
When attempting to create a new item of an UDCT (for instance, based on
Article), leaving a required field blank will cause the following error on 6.0:

com.arsdigita.persistence.FlushException:  (root cause:
com.redhat.persistence.FlushException: Unable to send all events to database for
object [com.arsdigita.cms.contenttypes.NewType:{id=3066}] because these required
properties are null:
 [com.arsdigita.cms.contenttypes.NewType:{id=3066}].RequiredField)
	at
com.arsdigita.persistence.PersistenceException.newInstance(PersistenceException.java:134)
	at
com.arsdigita.persistence.PersistenceException.newInstance(PersistenceException.java:109)
	at com.arsdigita.persistence.DataObjectImpl.save(DataObjectImpl.java:397)


On 5.2, the error is slightly different:

com.arsdigita.persistence.PersistenceException: Error executing SQL: 
insert into cms_contenttypes_newtype(NewType_id,
                                     requiredfield)
values (?,
        ?)
Occurred while:
    Inserting information for [com.arsdigita.cms.contenttypes.NewType:{id=6025}]
(root cause: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01400: cannot insert NULL into
("CMS52"."CMS_CONTENTTYPES_NEWTYPE"."REQUIREDFIELD")

(multiplicity: 1)
2. create an item of the UDCT created in step 1, leaving the required field blank
