Problems with plugins in Confluence 2.10.3
There appear to be issues loading the Reporting, Scaffolding and Linking plugins in Confluence 2.10.3. We are investigating the root cause of the issue and will post a solution here when we find it.

Hi robert,
By default the widget connector is installed with Confluence 2.10 but you do have the option to disable this plugin however, it will unlikely fix the problem by disabling the plugin.
You can run the below query to find the extra record (assuming the problem is the same):
select plugindataid, pluginkey,filename,lastmoddate from plugindata
Look for extra.widgetconnector record.
The company says
this solves the problem

Inappropriate?Any further follow-up or sense of a timeline for this issue? I've created a Jira issue on something that I think is related. Currently we are stuck, and this is after doing offline testing in a non-production environment with a copy of our data.
I’m also (very) frustrated!!
-
We will be investigating this issue this week and will hopefully have something to report in a day or two. -
Inappropriate?Today, we seem to be able to edit Scaffhold pages using Livetemplate, however the formatting is screwy. I've added a comment to the Jira issue I opened, as well as a screenshot: http://jira.adaptavist.com/browse/SCA...
I’m we're not DOA, but not out of the woods either

Inappropriate?Quick update - Thanks robert. As part of our efforts to test this, we've also just upgaded our website - http://www.customware.net to Confluence 2.10.3
I’m thankful

Inappropriate?We are also seeing issues with the Linking plugin. Links set-up to create a new page first time, then link to the page afterwards, are always creating new pages. They do not seem to be properly passing the page name data hence, it does not recgonize the page already exsists. Here is our current mark-up we are using in the livetemplate scaffold:
{link-page:name=%content:title% - instructor notes|template=CourseNotes|parent=@self}Instructor Notes{link-page}
I’m frustrated....

Inappropriate?There is a case where certain plugins were not loading correctly in Confluence 2.10.3.
The plugins that were affected includes:
Scaffolding
Linking
Reporting
Widget Connector
In this case, there was an additional record in the database for the extra widget connector plugin. Once that additional record was deleted from the database(using sql), the other pluigns started working(Scaffolding, Linking, Reporting etc).
It is probably worth checking for duplicate records for people that are experiencing the same problem with loading plugins in Confluence 2.10.3.
Here is the sample query used to remove the duplicate entry:
delete from plugindata where plugindataid='[plugin-id]' (Extra extra.widgetconnector record id)
where [plugin-id] was the Extra extra.widgetconnector record id -
Inappropriate?Would this problem still occur if we're not using the Widget plugin?
I’m less frustrated

Also ensure that you backup before running any comments directly on the database! -
Possibly a more direct SQL query to get the necessary info would be:
select plugindataid, pluginkey, filename, lastmoddate from plugin data
where pluginkey = "extra.widgetconnector"
Note: Untested! -
Inappropriate?It looks like we're also having issues with the {table-data} macro. The button to add additional lines does not seem to be working when editing the scaffold data.
I’m sad, problems keep coming up
-
Inappropriate?When I attempt to use the macro text-data, I receive the following error: Error formatting macro: text-data: java.lang.NullPointerException.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi Kay,
Can you check your server's log files? Usually they have more detailed information about the error.
Also, could you post your wiki markup here? Thanks. -
Inappropriate?David,
Here is my wiki markup:
*Text* {text-data:Text}Default text.{text-data}
Thanks,
Kay -
The wiki markup looks fine. Any chance of server logs? I can't really diagnose any further without them. -
Inappropriate?David,
I will send you a copy of the log as soon as the develpers finish their meeting.
Thank you,
Kay -
Inappropriate?David,
When I attempt to cut and paste the server log, it crashes my browser. May I e-mail it to you? If so, at what e-mail address?
Thank you and regards,
Kay -
You can email me at david.peterson@customware.net. -
Inappropriate?Does anyone know why the scaffolding macros won't work in my template? Any idea how to fix it?
Thanks,
Kay
