#179 Creating 'New' view causes Major Error

[Nicholas]

Follow these instructions carefully to see a major error:

1) Click 'Contacts' Tab
2) Go to the 'Default View' dropdown and select 'Edit View'
3) Once the page loads, click the [New View] button at
the bottom left part of the content area

Here is the ensuring error:

As my little contribution: the exception raised from the
errorPage.jsp page, where the bean:define is called.
In my knowledge the org.apache.struts.action.EXCEPTION bean
should be present only if the error comes from a JSP page
declaring errorPage with the <%@ page %> directive. As an
alternative, some Action class should define the bean.
Visiting the source files I did not see this definiton or
directive anywhere. Maybe I am missing something, but it
should be there to throw the org.apache.struts.action.EXCEPTION.

For sake of clarity, an excerpt from bean tld Struts
documentation follows:
"Many of the tags in this tag library will throw a
JspException at runtime when they are utilized incorrectly
(such as when you specify an invalid combination of tag
attributes). JSP allows you to declare an "error page" in
the <%@ page %> directive. If you wish to process the actual
exception that caused the problem, it is passed to the error
page as a request attribute under key
org.apache.struts.action.EXCEPTION."

I hope the team is able to solve the bug, because the
centraview application seems to be really useful for our needs.
Thank you for your attention.

Hi,

I am afraid, the CentraView team is not working any more. In
the CentraView european version we have solved this bug. As
I mentioned in the forum we will make an english version
available in April.
