Description Chris Cormack 2010-05-21 01:16:00 UTC


---- Reported by oleonard@myacpl.org 2009-12-08 15:48:44 ----

If you happen to delete something that has been placed in your cart, viewing the contents of your cart will generate an error:

Can't call method "field" on an undefined value at kohaclone/C4/Biblio.pm line 1336.

The user then has no way of removing the offending item from the cart.

Perhaps the cart should simply ignore biblionumbers which are not found?

lowering the severity, the use case is pretty rare. But keeping it open, as it's still relevant
Comment 2 Colin Campbell 2013-10-10 10:42:58 UTC
I've added a bug 11032 to address the susceptability of Biblio.pm to abort in such cases leaving the calling routines unable to clean up sensibly

Oh, there are more Softwre errors if you 

- try to send the basket:
Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at /usr/share/kohaclone/basket/sendbasket.pl line 83.

- try to download as ISO2709:
Can't call method "as_usmarc" on an undefined value at /usr/share/kohaclone/basket/downloadcart.pl line 71.

- try to download as RIS:
An error has occurred!
Error 500

- try to download as Bibtex
Can't call method "subfield" on an undefined value at /usr/share/kohaclone/C4/Record.pm line 658.

[PASSED QA] Bug 3873: Avoid software error if the cart contains a deleted record

If a record is placed in the basket and deleted, the basket view
exploded with:
Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at
/home/koha/src/basket/basket.pl line 73.

Test plan:
1/ Add some records to the basket
2/ Delete one of them
3/ Look at your basket
It should not exploded

Note that the number of items in the basket is now wrong.

Works as expected.

[PASSED QA] Bug 3873: follow-up for all other pages

This should fix the issue on other pages.

Test plan:
Try to download and export the basket (intranet+opac sides).

Re-tested for errors in comment #5, they do not longer appear.
