Re: Meta-data import - dry-run works, no-dry-run hangs
Jason,
Thanks for the rapid (Sunday :-) ) feedback!
Sigh - yeah, I actually got hold of Jason and we checked the Tomcat
log since the post, but the logs didn't really clear up exactly why
this is happening:
WARN 2015-01-25 12:37:10,122 HHH000437: Attempting to save one or
more entities that have a non-nullable association with an unsaved
transient entity. The unsaved transient entity must be saved in an
operation prior to saving these dependent entities.
Unsaved transient entity: ([org.hisp.dhis.period.QuarterlyPeriodType#0])
Dependent entities: ([[org.hisp.dhis.dataset.DataSet#18246]])
Non-nullable association(s):
([org.hisp.dhis.dataset.DataSet.periodType])
(UnresolvedEntityInsertActions.java [taskScheduler-9])
I don't really know what "unsaved transient entity" mean here - things
seems to point towards the quarterly dataperiodtype missing, but that
don't make any sense since that period is a built-in standard period
(?)
And it also strange that the dry run would work perfectly while the
real thing crash - that seems to indicate that some checks are missing
from the dry-run routine.
I've been able to work around it by importing all the data elements in
the data set, and then define the data set afresh in the destination
instance and then allocate the new data elements to it. Very
cumbersome, though, so I would have liked to know the root cause of
this.
Regards
Calle
