Symptoms


We are currently seeing a critical issue on our dev environment after upgrading from 4.6.8 to 4.6.11. The backups worked fine before we did this upgrade. The problem occurs when we try to take a PandD backup of some of our views. The backup fails with an error message as attached.
The properties it complains about are not referenced in the said smartobject. Also, some of those properties are not even being used by the View.

'ViewName' View is referencing the 'PropertyName' property on the 'SmartobjectName' Smartobject that could not be found.
 

Diagnoses


This behavior that you are seeing is a result of the changes implemented in 4.6.9 regarding Package Validation:

It is meant to surface more details to assist in pin-pointing potential issues and allow for the creation of more compatible packages.
 

Resolution

To address these entries that you are seeing:

1. Please checkout this 'ViewName' view
2. Perform the (Configure) option on any rules in this view that would reference the 'SmartObjectName' and just walk through the wizard until the Finish button (no changes are necessary)
3. Check the view back in
4. Re-test the creation of the package

The walking through of these rules will update/validate the view definition such that a more compatible package can now be created.
