OFBiz setup process can't be completed

Tom Truks
Hi everybody,
I'm working with OFBiz for over 2 months, read many books and I have a
problem with the setup process, which can't be completed. (ends with
stack trace)
I find the same error in the official Apache virtual machine. (by
pressing the button "SET TO COMPLETE")
Under the following link:
https://ofbiz-vm2.apache.org:8443/ofbizsetup/control/OrganizationToComplete

Can anyone help me to fix this? I work with version 13.07. Which version
do you recommend?

Best regards,
Tom Truks

Hi Tom,

First thing to be sure about you *must* not load the demo data, only the seed and seed-initial. Run "ant -p" at OFBiz root if you don't know how to do
that.

That's why it can't work on demos: we load, err, demo data there ;)

Thanks for your interest in OFBiz, don't give up

Jacques

Hi Jacques,

OFBiz is alreadyrunningwithoutdemo data. I started it with:

"ant load-extseed && ant create-admin-user-login -DuserLoginId=admin &&
ant start"

Best regards,

Tom

Good, then I have no ideas and you should create a Jira and attach your stack trace

If you don't know how it works you might read https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBADMIN/OFBiz+Contributors+Best+Practices

I hope the committer who introduced this feature will take care of the rest. Else maybe we should remove it...

Thanks

Jacques

Jacques I think you've been around long enough to know that a committer's
responsibility to a contribution doesn't extend to years of support.  If I
found a bug in your tarpit/ProtectedView code I wouldn't suddenly expect
you to fix it nor would I threaten to remove it.

Scott,

It was only a proposition, not even sure there is a bug. I see no Jira and I did not check. Funny that you evoke the tarpit/ProtectedView code, would
you secretly want me to remove it? :)

It was an unreasonable proposition and I think you know that.

I've never looked at the tarpit code to be honest, it was just the first
example of an old contribution from you that came to mind.

If that feature is broken and no one is maintaining it, I would suggest to
remove it to avoid confusion on users.

The problem is we don't know if it's really broken.

We also don't know if users are really using it, and even who really cares...

For me a simple rule of thumb is: if the code is broken/incomplete since a
long time and no one is reporting bugs and providing patches then the
feature is not used and/or maintained and should be dropped.

Easy for you to say because you are an expert.  What about a complete
beginner who is trying to setup a new system.  I have never really known
(for sure) if my system was setup properly because of this error.  Errors
spewing in the logs promotes a lack of confidence in the product.

I agree with you Mike: a tool/feature that is available but incomplete or
broken cause confusion and lack of confidence.

The reason why this is happening is because there is no check on whether
the party setup already exists. The function calls the
setupDefaultGeneralLedger service, which leads to the creation of the
PartyAcctgPreference record. This shouldn't be called when the first record
already exists.

Re: OFBiz setup process can't be completed

As pierre already wrote, the setup will only properly work when loading
only seed and seed initial data and then, only then, it will appear on
the menu.Yes, the PartyAcctgPreference entity should be empty.

We have now a simplified one page setup version in the GrowERP backend
which you can use. It should be compatible with OFBiz because GrowERP is
following the OFBiz data model and has the same Apache license.

Installation of GrowERP at
https://www.growerp.com/control/main?contentId=GROWERP_DEMO

The reason that we did not contribute it is, that it takes currently too
much discussion and time to get enhancements in the core ofbiz system.

We will try a new upcoming enhancement to make the passport component
also suitable for facebook and google+ hopefully it will get better.

Hans

OFBiz is dead. Never before have I seen such poor software! GrowERP is

Re: OFBiz setup process can't be completed

taher
Emotional outbursts aside, I would say understanding the data loading
process would be very sufficient for a clean system setup and is in fact
better than a setup application. The README.md provides good examples.

As for the "OFBiz is dead" statement go ahead and take a look at the commit
log to get an idea of the activity level in this project. Suffice to say it
is one of the highest in Apache.

OFBiz is dead. Never before have I seen such poor software! GrowERP is my
last try to find a software that works for my work.
