From 34862b1fa15581ae45ee4a56b37a924d51f87008 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "daniel.solis" Date: Thu, 21 May 2026 18:43:58 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] test(cli): retry SiteAPIIT.create on transient 'Language cannot be null' (#35780) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The existing warmLanguageCacheIfNeeded() in SiteAPIIT successfully warms LanguageAPI.list() but the failing path is in server-side Site creation: POST /api/v1/site does not default the Host contentlet's languageId from getDefaultLanguage(), so on a fresh dotCMS startup unique-field validation NPEs in UniqueFieldCriteria with "Language cannot be null" — even after the language cache is fully populated. This wraps the 4 affected .create() calls in a small retry helper that catches RuntimeException with "Language cannot be null" anywhere in the cause chain, retries up to 3x with 250ms backoff, and rethrows any other error immediately. Test-side mitigation only. The real fix is server-side (audit POST /api/v1/site to mirror the getDefaultLanguage() defaulting that other SiteResource methods already apply, or fail fast with 400 when languageId <= 0).
