Environment

Novell Vibe OnPrem 3.0
Novell Vibe OnPrem 3.0 HP1

Situation

After upgrading from Teaming 2.x to Vibe OnPrem 3.0 or Vibe OnPrem 3.0 HP1, some entries which previously allowed users to add replies no longer have the comment or reply button. This appears to happen in entries which are associated with a workflow process which defines one or more workflow based access controls.

Resolution

If you are unable to add replies to an entry where you previously had the option to add replies, please ensure that this is an entry that has a workflow associated with it. Furthermore, please check and make sure that the associated workflow process has one or more workflow access controls defined.

A patch is available to correct this problem. Please contact Novell Technical Support with reference to this TID and request the patch for your Vibe OnPrem 3.0 site.

Additional Information

Important compatibility note: This patch can only be applied to a Novell Vibe OnPrem 3.0 HP1 installation. If you have not yet applied the Vibe OnPrem HP1 patch, please apply the patch first. The Novell Vibe OnPrem 3.0 HP1 patch is available for download from the Novell Downloads site.
