Description Dmitri Pal 2012-03-13 20:55:11 UTC 
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2449

In refresh (show) operation when errors other than 4001 (Not found) occur, content of a facet is replaced by error message. 

In subsequent usage of the UI the error message isn't cleared and facet content isn't recreated even when operation is successful. Such facet become unusable and user is forced to reload the UI.

UI should be able to recover from such error report.

Comment 2 Jenny Severance 2012-03-19 18:21:26 UTC 
to reproduce ::

Actually this problem can be reproduced with error 4001 too:

   1. Add a host via UI, e.g. test.example.com.
   2. Delete the host via CLI.
   3. Open the host in the UI, an error dialog will appear.
   4. Click Cancel, it will go back to the search page.
   5. Add the same host again via UI.
   6. Open the host in the UI, the following error message will appear in the page content (not in dialog)

Comment 5 Namita Soman 2012-05-09 13:34:50 UTC 
Verified using ipa-server-2.2.0-12.el6.x86_64

Followed steps above, and and got error at Step 3 in its own dialog, and no error at Step 6.

Also followed steps from bug 817878 to get internal error, got the error, but didn't see an error message replacing page content.
