Fixed In Version: openshift-3.0.1.0-0.git.336.73858fa.el7ose
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously when creating from templates in the web console, the creation would fail if the template contained certain API object types, including persistent volume claims, secrets, and service accounts. This was due to the web console missing these types from its API type map. The type map has now been updated to include these missing types, and the web console also now gracefully handles unrecognized object types, reporting a relevant error message.

Description Samuel Padgett 2015-07-17 15:11:12 UTC 
Description of problem:

You cannot use a template that references several different types in the Web Console. Examples include persistent volume claims, secrets, service accounts, and many others.

See

https://github.com/openshift/origin/issues/3722
https://github.com/openshift/origin/pull/3746

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

3.0

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load a template that uses persistent volume claims, like examples/db-templates/postgresql-persistent-template.json
2. Try to create using the template in the Web Console

Actual results:

The creation fails with no error message.

Expected results:

The creation succeeds.

Additional info:

We should also fail gracefully when templates reference unrecognized types. (To test, change the kind of an object in a template to an invalid value.)

3.Create template in project "prozyp1". Edit the template, and chage the kind "PersistentVolumeClaim" to an invalid type "TestPersistentVolumeClaim".
$ oc create -f origin/examples/db-templates/postgresql-persistent-template.json -n prozyp1
$ oc edit templates/postgresql-persistent -n prozyp1
4.Login web console, create using template postgresql-persistent in project "prozyp1".
