Created: 05/11/2017

Components: AJAX, UI Components

Versions: 2016

Failure Type: Non Functioning

Found In Build/Fixed In Build: ACF 2016 Update 4 /

Priority/Frequency: Normal / Some users will encounter

Vote Count: 4

Problem Description:

cfgrid with onchange calling a remote method in a cfc passes the data as a form post. This data is same in 2016 Update 3 as it is in 2016 Update 4, however in Update 4 it causes the error:

`The GRIDACTION parameter to the xyz function is required but was not passed in.`

Steps to Reproduce:

Run the attached example on ACF2016 Update 3 (works) install Update 4 and try again.

Actual Result:

Error

Expected Result:

For the data being passed as form.argumentCollection to be mapped correctly to the method arguments.

Any Workarounds:

Rollback to update 3 / Replace CFGRID (which we are planning to do anyway)

Comments:

This a more general CF bug the POST version of argument collection is not being decoded into the function arguments, this works as expected for PUT this is a fundamental flaw and needs to be corrected ASAP

This also happens with any JS calls done with `cfajaxproxy` where it does a POST to the remote method. Works in CF2016 Update 3, fails in CF2016 Update 4.

Here is some simple code as a test example of the cfajaxproxy version of the issue.

CFM FILE:
<cfajaxproxy cfc="testCFajaxProxy" jsclassname="p" />
<script type="text/javascript">
function runTest() {
	var instance = new p();
	instance.setHTTPMethod("POST");
	var result = instance.testProxy('Test String');
	alert(result);
}
</script>
<input type="button" value="Try it!" onClick="javascript:runTest();" />

CFC FILE:
<cfcomponent>
	<cffunction name="testProxy" access="remote" returntype="string" output="no">
		<cfargument name="var1" type="string" required="true">
   
		<cfset local.returnVar = arguments.var1 & ' testProxy function added some text. '>
		
        <cfreturn local.returnVar>
    </cffunction>	
</cfcomponent>

It appears that none of the parameter values from a cfgrid onchange event are being passed.
{cfgridaction},{cfgridrow},{cfgridchanged}

Had a notification that this bug's Reason Code has been changed to "Duplicate"

Change Details:
status updated from 'To Fix' to 'To Test'
Reason Code updated from 'BugVerified' to 'Duplicate'

Can I ask that when bugs in the tracker are flagged as "Duplicate" that the person who changes the status also adds a comment to say what it is duplicated by - otherwise we have no way of knowing if the issue has been fixed. Thank you!
