Description of problem: If I edit on filesystem and immediately try to make changes on the UI, i /do/ get an error message that reads (twice): NOTE: This resource's configuration is currently being updated by the RHQ agent. The configuration cannot be edited until the update in progress is complete. This, however, never seems to go away, and I am not sure my changes -- either change, filesystem or UI -- ever show up. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. $platform > Raw Server > File mode; add "baz=quux" to end of file but DO NOT SAVE yet. 2. On filesystem, edit /tmp/raw-config-test/raw-test-1.txt ; add "foo=bar" to end of file; save. 3. return to UI and save. 4. View results. Actual results: NOTE: This resource's configuration is currently being updated by the RHQ agent. The configuration cannot be edited until the update in progress is complete. ...which I am not sure ever seems to go away. the conflict remains for a long time. User never seems to be able to get back to file view. Expected results: Conflict should be detected; initial config update via filesystem should take place and user should be able to get back to file view. Additional info:
I retested this one 1. $platform > Raw Server > File mode; add "baz=quux" to end of file but DO NOT SAVE yet. 2. On filesystem, edit /tmp/raw-config-test/raw-test-1.txt ; add "foo=bar" to end of file; save. 3. return to UI and save. 4. View results. Actual result The UI edit seem to take place with no indication that file was changed. Expected results: Conflict should be detected; initial config update via filesystem should take place and user should be able to get back to file view.
If you refresh the view page, then I would expect you to see the edit made directly on the file system. If however you attempt to save without refreshing the page, then I think ConfigurationManagerBean needs to have the necessary logic to determine that you are not updating the latest configuration at which point it should throw an exception so that the UI can display an appropriate message to the user.
Temporarily adding the keyword "SubBug" so we can be sure we have accounted for all the bugs. keyword: new = Tracking + FutureFeature + SubBug
making sure we're not missing any bugs in rhq_triage
