Description of problem: The GUI fails to create a content-based child resource resource of a type that doesn't have any resource and/or deployment time configuration. Currently there doesn't seem to be any such resource type in RHQ-originating plugins, but the Hadoop plugin currently being developed adds such type, not mentioning the possibility of custom 3rd party plugins that we don't know about. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.5.0-SNAPSHOT How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have the hadoop plugin from feature/hadoop-plugin branch of RHQ repo 2. Inventory the JobTracker 3. Try to "Create Child" of the type "Job Jar" Actual results: Exceptions in the child creation wizard Expected results: Child created successfully Additional info: This has been fixed in the feature/hadoop-plugin branch by commit: feature/hadoop-plugin http://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/rhq/rhq.git/diff/?id=e77ecb554662b89a0710584c45765ca6c178a941 Author: Lukas Krejci <lkrejci> Date: Thu Aug 9 12:16:18 2012 +0200 Fixing the child resource creation for resource types that do not have resource configuration.
Perhaps this fix can be cherry picked to master? Setting to 4.10 triage and asking Lukas for info.
Master has had this since 4.6.0 but this BZ was forgotten about. Closing. $ git tag --contains e77ecb554662b89a0710584c45765ca6c178a941 RHQ_4_6_0 RHQ_4_6_0_JONCI RHQ_4_7_0 RHQ_4_7_0_JONCI RHQ_4_8_0 RHQ_4_9_0
