Conflict error and "Could not adapt" error with Volto and Plone 5.2

Hi folks,
We are running into two errors since we are using Plone 5.2 with Volto. In fact they are not reproduceable using Classic UI, so I would lean more on the p.restapi interface to be who to point to, at least for now. They are not reproduceable in 5.1 (with p.restapi) in any case too, so that narrows (or confuses) a little bit more the case.

This is the conflict error:

2019-12-04 10:50:46,006 ERROR   [ZODB.ConflictResolution:294][waitress] Unexpected error while trying to resolve conflict on <class 'collective.folderishtypes.dx.content.FolderishDocument'>

We are using collective.folderishtypes addon to make all content types folderish.

The second error is:

This last error is a Heisenbug, it's completely random and is gone on reload on the same failing object.

If it rings a bell to someone, it would be great to know what might be the cause.
Cheers,

I see this kind of weird errors when the iface identifier is used instead of the behavior name.
If you are using something like:


try replacing it with:

<element value="volto.blocks" />

We are indeed using the iface. Wasn't that the preferred approach? I just saw that p.a.contenttypes has all of them in the behavior name form.

Thanks a lot! I will try your suggestion asap.

@alert that seems have did the trick... man you're my saviour lately :slight_smile: I owe you a beer!

I will keep you posted about the outcome, but it looks good so far.
Thanks!!

No, using the name is the preferred way. I tend to fade out using the interface here by logging deprecation warnings. Your Heisenbug strengthens my opinion here.

Should/could we in P6 kill the fallback?

Yes, that's a plan. I would second a Plip, would you write it?

Help me with https://github.com/plone/Products.CMFPlone/issues/2454 by figuring out/fixing https://jenkins.plone.org/view/PLIPs/job/plip-dx-siteroot-3.7/19/testReport/junit/plone.app.contentrules.tests.test_action_versioning/TestVersioningAction/testExecute/ , and I'll add a PLIP for removing the fallback behavior lookup mechanism.

Regarding the failing test, it seems you are missing the call to an init method:

CMFOrderedBTreeFolderBase.__init__(obj, obj.getId(), obj.title)

More details http://blog.redturtle.it/2013/02/25/migrating-dexterity-items-to-dexterity-containers, look for _tree.
If I am able I will give this a try myself.

You could join us remotely for the Plone 6 Kick-Off sprint tomorrow. :slight_smile:

Just to have it written somewhere, we've noticed that there are still places that the old interface name is still used, mainly in tests:

for p.a.dexterity, p.a.event, plone.api, p.restapi.

FYI: @jensens helped us track down and fix the problem:

Thank you Jens!

@jaroel @jensens I just ran into this nasty bug again. Do you still wanna write that PLIP? :slight_smile:

I would like to see at least a warning to show up on this in Plone 5.2. It is easy to forget about this and the consequences are really nasty.
