Whenever clicking save on the Collecting Trip form the following error occurs:

And the Specify Error log says this:

org.hibernate.LazyInitializationException: failed to lazily initialize a collection of role: edu.ku.brc.specify.datamodel.CollectingTrip.collectingTripAttachments, no session or session was closed

The Collecting Trip form was able to be saved via the Data sidebar, but not via the Collecting Event form.

The common.views form for the CollectingTrip viewdef says “<![CDATA[CollectingTrip Form - unknown use in database]]>” – that made me realize the Collecting Trip form connected to Collecting Event was attempting to use the CollectingTrip viewdef, whereas the one that worked was using the CollectingTripForm viewdef.

I edited dialog_defs.xml to display CollectingTripForm (instead of CollectingTrip) and now it works!

This looks like a specify 6 issue
And it looks like it was solved
@grantfitzsimmons should this be moved to sp6 repository, or should it be closed?
Or is it about default forms being wrong?

@maxpatiiuk This needs to be moved to the Specify 6 repo and solved in the default forms

For future reference if a user has a question about this:

I recommend editing the dialog_defs.xml file and making only this edit.

Essentially, we want to replace only the view="CollectingTrip" with view="CollectingTripFrom" in that file.

On your Collecting Event form definition, you’ll want the query combo box for Collecting Trip to look like this:

<row>
    <cell type="label" labelfor="10"/>
    <cell type="field" id="10" name="collectingTrip" uitype="querycbx" initialize="name=CollectingTrip;title=CollectingTrip" colspan="10"/>
</row>
