That should be how it works, but I have run into weird issues like Christian has, when I don't run them individually. I had the best luck following the directions listed in the Technical Documentation version of the "Quick & Easy" setup instructions (https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/

Christian, can you provide the output of the two commands I provided in my last message? Does your JAV_HOME point to the JDK (the JRE is not sufficient)? Did you unpack the release zip in the folder and did you cd to the OFBiz root folder where the README is located? These steps where not me

Christian, The first step after unpacking the OFBiz zip file, is to run "gradlew" by itself. That downloads all of the libraries and does an initial build of OFBiz. Then you would run the "gradlew loadDefault" to load the data into default Derby database. Then you would run "gradlew ofbiz" to

Hi Michael, Thank you for your suggestions. I have read the README.md before I started. I followed the steps and did nothing else to it. It seems to be straight forward. First, get Java JDK. So, I got Java and saved it to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_151 C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_151 Second

Seeing how the Product Supplier works now, was this how Facilities were supposed to work? If so, it looks like Facility should be added to the Add to Role selection, with Facility Group as the Parent Type Id (which also needs to be added to that selection). -Tim -Original Message- From

No, I understood. When I added the new party (after the import) with a new Postal Address ContactMech, it incremented the sequence correctly. Only when I went to add a ContactMech for the TelecomNumber, did it give me the key conflict error. I had to hit the save key 41 times, as it incremented

Re: Entity ID key counter not reset after import from XML

2017-12-24 Thread Michael Brohl
Maybe I was not clear enough: If you import data from another system, containing the primary key, you won't get a new sequence value from the system you import to. It just imports with the pk in the data. The sequence value for the pk is therefore not increased. In case of TelecomNumber, the

Michael, Thank you for your response, and I agree. I will start filing Jiras. My thought was to first see if anyone else experienced the same issues and knew of a solution, prior to doing so. In the case of Product Suppliers, that was the case. Hopefully the Jiras won't go into a black hole...

No, this was a new telephone record, being added to a new party, not from the import. The import was of 10 parties and 40 contact records. To add the new phone number for the new party, I had to hit save 41 times, to get to an id value that it would accept. That is certainly not acceptable, the

I stand corrected on Product Suppliers. Thank you for the clarification. I get what you are saying about unit of measures, I don't agree, and think the ISO standard should be used when available, but at this point, with the above info, the point is moot. I understand where you are coming from,

Hi Tim, if you export the values and just import the generic values, no new primary key values are generated. The data is imported just the way it is. Therefore the sequence value item for the table is not increased and if you want to create a new item through the user interface, you'll recei

The issue that I had was that the underlying field would not accept a value of 0.00590. I had to enter the value as a lot of 1, to get the price to 59.00, before it would accept the value. If I read the first link correctly, that is referring to display format, and not validation of the fiel

Hi Christian, there is no need to uninstall Java/OFbiz when there is just a missing JAVA_HOME environment variable. Just point this variable to the correct Java home directory. What does "echo %JAVA_HOME%" and "java -version" say on the command line? OFBIZ_HOME is not needed at all, the Grad
