Restarting the sunstone service restores full functionality (but you must log on again)

#1 Updated by Hector Sanjuan over 10 years ago

I cannot reproduce this bug in ruby 1.8.7 nor 1.9.2 with the json-1.5.1 gem on the master sunstone version (unstable but without major changes that could cause this). Can you give some more information about the versions you are using (opennebula, ruby, browser...). Attributes are added, updated and removed correctly.

Still, Im not sure if that was your intent, but in order to make an image public you need to hit 'publish' in the drop-down action menu, as adding the PUBLIC attribute will not make it.

#2 Updated by Gian Uberto Lauri over 10 years ago

My fault not mentioning that I use:

ruby 1.8.6 (2010-02-05 patchlevel 399) [x86_64-linux]

which is currently the latest version available on CentOS 5 (just ran yum to ckeck). The machine is rated "production", so it must use software out of the distribution repository, I can't go to search different versions of ruby.

I agree that is not the correct way to make an image public, but by no mean the server has to crash, the error must be trapped and handled correctly and, in case of user fault, an appropriate message should be displayed.

Hi, maybe your json gem is not compiled for your current version of ruby? Can you try reinstalling it?

Nice suggestion Hector! Problem fixed, the server does not crash any more.
