Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-1423:
-----------------------------------------
Looking at the javascript code, the problem seems to be the use of postForm():
{code}
function ShpDeleteCertificate(aliasName)
{
editconnection.shpkeystorealias.value = aliasName;
editconnection.configop.value = "Delete";
postForm();
}
function ShpAddCertificate()
{
if (editconnection.shpcertificate.value == "")
{
alert("$Encoder.bodyJavascriptEscape($ResourceBundle.getString('SharePointRepository.ChooseACertificateFile'))");
editconnection.shpcertificate.focus();
}
else
{
editconnection.configop.value = "Add";
postForm();
}
}
{code}
Now, postForm() is used in quite a number of connector forms, so I'm not sure
why it doesn't work in this circumstance. [~kishorekumar], any idea?

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-1423
> Project: ManifoldCF
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: LiveLink connector, SharePoint connector, Web connector
> Affects Versions: ManifoldCF 2.7
> Reporter: Karl Wright
> Assignee: Kishore Kumar
> Priority: Blocker
>
> (1) Create a Sharepoint repository connection
> (2) Click on the Server tab
> (3) Try to add a certificate by finding a valid cert and clicking the "Add"
> button
> A 500 error is returned. The exception trace looks like this:

> {code}
> It looks like the rendering flow is no longer the same, and therefore the
> certificate store is not loaded into the local variable that the
> processConfigurationPost() method is expecting to find it in.
> The connector code can be rewritten for the connectors where this happens but
> frankly this will cause many of the connector UI's out there to break badly.
> Is there another way to address this?
