#1495 Cannot define a prerequisite for task

[Jutta Albrecht]

Hi,

I tried to define a prerequisite for a task but without success.

• marking a task as prereq does not "stick" when I close the edit dialog; when I open the dialog again, the checkbox for the task marked as prereq is no longer set
• I noticed that another task - where I was sure I did not set any prereqs for - has a prereq; when I remove the checkmark, close the edit dialog and reopen it again, the checkmark reappears (not sure if coincidence or if this is the checkmark that "disappeared" as described above)
• when exiting Task Coach, an error message appears that points to taskcoachlog.txt (file attached)

The tasks only have a subject and a category (no due dates, no notes,...). I tried with active and inactive tasks, the result is the same.

If I can reproduce the problem with a small tsk-File, I will add this to this report.

Best Regards
Jutta

Hi Jérome,

sorry for the duplicate - SF does not seem to search for partial matches like "prereq" in its bug reports...

Thanks a lot for the fix!

Best regards

No problem, SF's search bites me too from time to time :)

Hi Jérome,

yes, defining prereqs now works fine!
