Topic: ✔ grayed out when trying to save dataset

view this post on Zulip Hansen C. (May 13 2024 at 20:17):

I freshly installed 6.2 on my office computer running Rocky and tried to save dataset with FAKE doi, but got grayed out after clicking on save. Please see attached the payara log and
server.log
help!

Huh, we just got the same report here: Error when trying to create a new Dataset (NullPointerException) #10557

Thanks for pointing me to the post. I think the newer payara version is the problem. I will try with the recommended version.

It looks like pidProvider is null here: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/blob/v6.2/src/main/java/edu/harvard/iq/dataverse/engine/command/impl/AbstractCreateDatasetCommand.java#L89

You say you're using FAKE. Should work. Hmm.

But yeah, I dunno about older Payara.

You are right. It must be caused by something else. Installed the recommended version and had the same issue.

That's... not great. Any tips on how to reproduce this? Sounds like it's a fresh install. Traditional install (not Docker). You're just following the Installation Guide and running the Python installer?

Yes. It was a fresh traditional install following the guide. The production 6.2 upgraded from 6.0 does not have this problem.

@Hansen C. you're all set right? I'm looking at https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/issues/10557#issuecomment-2110850169

For the 6.2 release, I just re-uploaded dvinstall.zip to include a fix: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/pull/10563#issuecomment-2115977364
