Why did you remove my entry about that fatal failure of ez3.1.1?

Michael Bolien	Friday 29 August 2003 4:24:25 am I believe, this is an odd behaviour, I think, everyone should know in which case he could be trapped with ez3.1.1. I want to repeat it: When two admins enter the same class in the setup-section and leave it at the same time coincidentially, that class disappeared from all sites in this project although this class is still listed in ezcontentclass. In that setup area, there must be the same semaphoric algorithm as in the content. Regards, Michael

Paul Forsyth	Friday 29 August 2003 4:33:08 am Sounds odd. Michael, can you provide exact steps to allow us to try to reproduce this effect? I can see roughly what to do but would like to see steps for two admins to try. You also mention 3.1.1. I assume this is an svn version, which revision? Paul
Michael Bolien	Friday 29 August 2003 8:44:28 am Hi Paul, thank you for answering. Where do I find the exact version? I got the tarball ezpublish-3.1-1.tar.gz dated July,5. The steps to reproduce the failure: One administrator (e.g. the one in Munich) navigates to "Set up/class groups/content". Then edit an object, say "article". At the same time, another administrator (e.g. the one in Hamburg) has opened the same object ('article'). Neither of them knows, that the object is being viewed by another admin. The both leave the object by pressing 'Discard' at the same time .... Then the object ('article') has disappeared, the page is destroyed. Because my first idea, bringing back that object via ezcontentclass-table failed, the object (article) is still listed in that table. There must be one little flag elsewhere, that tells ez that the object isn't valid anymore. Regards, Michael

Paul Forsyth	Tuesday 02 September 2003 5:35:12 am Sorry Michael, I haven't been able to try this out yet. Waiting on other person. But hopefully i can try later today or tomorrow. Paul
Paul Forsyth	Tuesday 02 September 2003 7:53:55 am Michael, Ok, we've found the same issue. 2 admins discarding their changes does delete the class! This was with 3.1.1. Ive not tried with 3.2 yet. Paul
