Forum LAMS for Tech-Heads - General Forum: Problem while saving a tool

I assume you're creating a new tool, right?

In this case it seems you're missing Tool signature.
Have a look at this page (http://wiki.lamsfoundation.org/display/lams/Tool+Versions+and+Signatures). It will give you a first insight on this topic.

Also you might wonna give a try to that tiny plug-in (http://wiki.lamsfoundation.org/display/lams/Tool+Builder). It could significantly simplify tool creation process.

Let me know if you have any other questions

Thanks,

First of all, thanks for answering.

Yes, I am creating a new tool. I understand what a tool signature is and I did use the Eclipse plugin to generate a tool template. Despite of that, I'm still getting that error.

Do you know what I might be missing?

Thanks again.

No probs at all,

I think most likely you're missing a tool record from lams_tool table.
To fix this go to ${your_tool_project}\db\sql\tool_insert.sql
make sure your tool's signature is there and it's correct.
then run tool's Ant target "deploy-tool"...
it should automatically add all tool's data (including signature) into database.


If this doesn't work here is hint #2:
have a look at the source code of the authoring page that's been rendered.
make sure &signature parameter is set correctly inside doCancel() function.


Hope it will help,

Best

Thanks for the constant help! My tool_insert.sql was OK, but when I went to the source code, I became aware that a previous tool signature was still written in a jsp file. I don't how this happened, just glad the problem is resolved.

Thanks again!

Regards!
