Creating an "Open Ended" deployment in WebUI doesn't work

Hello!

I appear to be unable to create open ended deployments in WebUI.

Environment Information:

  • BigFix 9.5.3 with Local WebUI re-deployed and BigFix 9.5.2 with original WebUI Installation

Operator Information

  • Master Operator
  • Using Chrome 53 and Firefox 47.0.1

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Navigate to WebUI
  2. Go to Content > Software
  3. Select an Application and press Deploy
  4. Target a group (this is what i did im sure an individual machine works too) and press Next
  5. Click, “Open Ended Deployment” and “Send this as an offer” (offer is likely unnecessary but it prevents the package from being installed on all the machines in your group) and Press Next
  6. Press Deploy

A modal will appear saying, “Posting Deployment. Please Wait.” and will never go away. Pressing Right Click > Inspect Element shows a javascript error that appears as soon as you hit deploy:

app.min.fad8508….js:19529 TypeError: Cannot read property '1' of null
    at Object.fn (app.min.fad8508….js:54875)
    at Object.svc.finish (app.min.fad8508….js:41837)
    at Object.svc.next (app.min.fad8508….js:41829)
    at Scope.$scope.doNext (app.min.fad8508….js:40817)
    at fn (eval at compile (app.min.fad8508….js:20354), <anonymous>:4:209)
    at expensiveCheckFn (app.min.fad8508….js:21317)
    at callback (app.min.fad8508….js:24158)
    at Scope.$eval (app.min.fad8508….js:22043)
    at Scope.$apply (app.min.fad8508….js:22066)
    at HTMLButtonElement.<anonymous> (app.min.fad8508….js:24165)

This happens to me on my 9.5.3 lab environment as well as on alpha.bigfix.com

In my 9.5.2 production environment it appears to not do anything (the “Posting Deployment…” modal does not appear) and the same javascript error appears in the logs.

This is an issue that we are aware of. We should have the fix for this published at the end of this month.
