Hi Ian,

The list has been a bit unstable the last few days. I was getting bounces at one point that said email@hidden was an unknown mailbox.


I'm intermittently getting the error:

"Cannot obtain globalId for an object which is not registered in any editingContext"

I see quite a few have run into this one over the years and have read all those posts. I'm using Java client, so the error is happening on the server and being reported back to the client.

For me, this does not happen when I build and run the project from Xcode and if I build deployment and run the app, it only happens 50% of the time. Here is the output I am getting from inserting a simple Person object:

[2006-03-27 16:25:13 EST] <AWT-EventQueue-0> CronusIII.client.Person_interface_controller Cannot null Server exception: Cannot obtain globalId for an object which is not registered in any editingContext, object: <com.webobjects.eocontrol.EOGenericRecord 88d364 (EOEditingContext $_EOInvalidFaultHandler aa711)>, databaseContext: com.webobjects.eoaccess.EODatabaseContext@fceb09, object's editingContext: null, databaseContext's active editingContext: com.webobjects.eocontrol.EOEditingContext@989e7c

That looks like something is messaging an EO that was in an editing context which has been finalized.


Which shows the current ec, its inserted object and no deleted or updated objects. The ec of the bad object is indeed null (which is different to most posts). And I'm not using nested contexts. The offending object is an EOGenericRecord, which means it must be either the persons title (mr, mrs, etc) or gender (male, female), however, its address does not match those fields in the person record. The offending EOGenericRecord also has an ec of null.

It wouldn't, it is from a different EC. It is also possible that is it not really generic record, but rather that EOF has lost track of what it used to be.


Here is related save code:

public boolean save () {
Service.log (this, " save editing context "+editingContext ());
Service.log (this, " save inserted "+editingContext ().insertedObjects());
Service.log (this, " save updated "+editingContext ().updatedObjects());
Service.log (this, " save deleted "+editingContext ().deletedObjects());
boolean result = super.save ();
NSNotificationCenter.defaultCenter ().postNotification ("update_contacts", null);


Could this be cause of the problem? What is receiving this notification? Is it possible that is it trying to operate on on old EOs from an EC that has been finalized? Does something need to un- register from this notification.


		return result;
	}

and super.save:

public boolean save () {
// Service.log (this, " saving "+state);
if (editingContext ().hasChanges ()) {
try {
editingContext ().saveChanges ();
end_operation ();
} catch (Exception x) {
Service.log (this, " Cannot " + operation + " " + x.getMessage ());
Looks like this is where the error is getting logged so it seems that the postNotification above is not the cause. Though it may be some other notification that is getting posted. It might be worth registering an omniscient observer around this operation and logging out all the notifications that saveChanges() results in.


String last_operation = operation;
// Service.log (this, " saving 2 "+state);
if (state == deleting) revert (); // must do before runErrorDialog ... seems to be a bug (in EODocumentController.save ()) if deleted object is last in table.
EODialogs.runErrorDialog ("Cannot " + last_operation, "Cannot " + last_operation + (last_object_id != null? (" '" + last_object_id + "'"): "") + ".\n\n" + x.getMessage () + ".");
return false;
}
}

return true;
}


Could there be any deployment settings that are causing this, since it does not happen with the development build?

None that I can think of. If it is garbage collection related, it could be related to heap size, version differences, etc.
