I am trying to manually setup something like the "Open Gizmo" product that contains a dropdown containing licences.
I have a "License" displayed in the drop down, but I can not get the different types of licenses (BSD, LGPL, etc) to display in the dropdown. What could be the missing piece? I linked the added the BSD feature to my Non-Virtual product, and linked all the Non-Virtual products to my Virtual product. Clues appreciated since my head hurts now. Thanks Phillip |
Clarification, you are doing this thru the UI

Yes, I am doing this through the Catalog manager UI.

One last piece of wierdness.
While the select box is empty of the my feature values The bottom of the product page contains a listing of the features. It would be the same thing as if the Open Gizmo select box being empty, but still displaying to the user the images below for BSD, LGPL, etc.. Here is it: https://palatepartners.rhoderunner.com/ecommerce/control/product?product_id=Wine-Cheese Feel free to poke around since it's just development (and if you want to see ofbiz run on a new MAC PRO with 5 GB of ram!) It's scary fast. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Phillip Rhodes" <[hidden email]> To: [hidden email] Sent: Saturday, October 27, 2007 8:54:07 PM (GMT-0500) America/New_York Subject: Re: Cannot duplicate Open Gizmo Example Yes, I am doing this through the Catalog manager UI. ----- Original Message ----- From: "BJ Freeman" <[hidden email]> To: [hidden email] Sent: Saturday, October 27, 2007 8:51:41 PM (GMT-0500) America/New_York Subject: Re: Cannot duplicate Open Gizmo Example Clarification, you are doing this thru the UI Phillip Rhodes sent the following on 10/27/2007 5:45 PM: > I am trying to manually setup something like the "Open Gizmo" product that contains a dropdown containing licences. > > I have a "License" displayed in the drop down, but I can not get the different types of licenses (BSD, LGPL, etc) to display in the dropdown. > > What could be the missing piece?

Not sure if it will help but you could try removing that Test-Large
variant you've got it there, it might be confusing things.

Yes, I added that while I was playing around trying to get it to work.
It's removed, restarted ofbiz (just to be on the safe side). Still exhibiting the same problem. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Scott Gray" <[hidden email]> To: [hidden email] Sent: Saturday, October 27, 2007 9:26:35 PM (GMT-0500) America/New_York Subject: Re: Cannot duplicate Open Gizmo Example Not sure if it will help but you could try removing that Test-Large variant you've got it there, it might be confusing things.

Hi Phillip,
I was Vadoing the similar things and I took the Open Gizmo and Large Widget example to start with. I did thought the xml data load. Best way (in my opinion) is to make a copy of the existing stuff in the file (Features, Feature Categories, Product Association etc), modify to suite your requirements and import that file or xml fragment through webtools. Go back to your catalog and test. I also advise to keep the demo page opened to compare your configuration with the demo application. It did not work for me on first instance. It needed couple of iterations of error and trial. Webtool import is so handy that I love it and you can do things very quickly. In summary you would need to do: 1. Create a virtual product. 2. Create variant products. 3. Create product prices for virtual and (or) variants 4. Create Product feature category 5. Create Product features 6. Apply features to the virtual product 7. Apply features to the variants 8. Associate variants with the virtual product 9. Assign your virtual product to a category. If you follow the DemoProduct.xml you will find these steps in same sequence as above. Hope it helps.

My first guess is that you have created the virtual product (ok), then
you have associated selectable features to it (ok) but you are probably missing the last step: go to the variants tab (the last in the tabs of the virtual product) and create the variant products (if you check the boxes the system will propose default values for the variant product ids, but you can change them).

If I go into the Associations tab for my virtual product, I already see my virtual product associated to my two Product Variants. Likewise, if I go into a product variant, there is an association to the virtual product.
I think the product variant stuff is setup correctly, but please let me know if I got it wrong. Thanks for everyone's help so far.

Wow, what an ordeal! Learned a lot about ofbiz in the process.
The root cause of the problem is that I created a Feature Type with a space in it. The javascript that was emitted choked on having a select control with a space on it. Should I open a Jira issue that reports that the Feature Type admin allows one to create a Feature Type with a bad ID? Thanks to everyone for your help. The best part of everybody's help is that it allowed me to know that I setup things correctly in the DB and had to investigate it in different ways.

Hi Phillip,
this is a good news. By the way, this bug should be already filed in Jira: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-230 Cheers, Jacopo Phillip Rhodes wrote: > Wow, what an ordeal!
