Foreman Issue Tracker 13823 0 Normal Rejected Dashboard gives undefined method `label' for nil:NilClass 2020-05-11 16:28:30 UTC

Description Sean O'Keeffe 2016-07-27 12:44:25 UTC 
Description of problem:

After 6.2 upgrade the dashboard no longer loads and errors with "undefined method `label' for nil:NilClass". We think this happens if the user has deleted a bunch of old stopped tasks before. The newer dynflows provide this functionality via a rake task, but we need to handle it if a user has removed them before. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.2

How reproducible:
not sure

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install 6.1
2. sync something so you create some tasks
3. delete some of the tasks using the console.
4. upgrade to 6.2
5. dashboard wont load

Actual results:
dashboard wont load

Expected results:
dashboard to display correctly

Additional info:
Comment 1 Sean O'Keeffe 2016-07-27 12:46:56 UTC 
You can delete a tasks using, maybe replacing the label.

# foreman-rake console  
ForemanTasks::Task.where(:state => :stopped).where(:label => "Actions::Katello::Repository::Sync").destroy_all

OK hitting this myself and raised a dupe BZ#1364768 as my search-foo was not great.

Now how to resolve it ?

I managed to fix this (or workaround it at least) by applying this:-

Cleared sessions & katello-service restart
Comment 9 Rudnei Bertol Jr. 2016-08-09 20:49:03 UTC 
I've same error, and decided updating file /opt/theforeman/tfm/root/usr/share/gems/gems/katello-3.0.0.68/app/models/katello/content_view_history.rb

line ~45 

-def humanized_action
-  case self.task.label
-  when "Actions::Katello::ContentViewVersion::Export"
-    _("Exported version")
-  when "Actions::Katello::ContentView::Publish"
-    _("Published new version")
-  when "Actions::Katello::ContentView::Promote"
-    _("Promoted to %{environment}") % { :environment => self.environment.name }
-  when "Actions::Katello::ContentView::Remove"
-    _("Deleted from %{environment}") % { :environment => self.environment.name }
-  end
-end

+def humanized_action
+  case self.task.try(:label)
+  when "Actions::Katello::ContentViewVersion::Export"
+    _("Exported version")
+  when "Actions::Katello::ContentView::Publish"

+  else

+  end
+end


Clear all tasks in DynFlow, database and pulp.
Restart all services.
