[jira] [Commented] (VCL-861) Web timetable endless loop

["Josh Thompson (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-861?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14494180#comment-14494180 ] 

Josh Thompson commented on VCL-861:
-----------------------------------

This was caused by a VM being in the available state, but not being assigned to a VM host. The code that determines available time slots needs to check for that case.

hiccup - For some reason, the code that checks for available time slots is getting called twice.

> The website presents an endless loop when an image is not immediately available for the selected duration.  An animated gif is attached to this Jira issue showing the loop.
> !timetable-loop.png!
> The animation shows an image which is currently available if 2 hours is selected.  When the user changes the duration to 8 hours, the *_Available Times_* box is presented.  The user is shown various available times and selects one.  Upon clicking *_Use Selected Time_*, the *_Available Times_* box reappears and contains the same selections.  The can be repeated indefinitely.
> At the end of the animation, the user selects another timeslot with a shorter duration.  This works as expected.
> Another minor problem is shown in the animation.  After the user changes the duration from 2 to 8 hours, the following happens:
> * *_Loading_* icon appears
> * *_Available Times_* box appears briefly
> *  *_Available Times_* box disappears before user can make a selection
> * *_Loading_* icon reappears
> * *_Available Times_* box appears again and user can make selection
> The hiccup should be fixed.
