Work item creation from template results in hang from web
![](http://jazz.net/_images/myphoto/74cc5f0c959f8de0b1ece956a341150e.jpg)
I am using RTC 4.0 GA and found that I am unable to save a work item created from a template using the WebUI
(Eclipse Client works fine)
steps I used:
1- Open eclipse client and create a new work item, save it
2- from that work item, create a work item template
3- open web UI, and create a work item from the newly created template
4- This should create the work item as expected, and show the work item in a query
5- open the work item and change any attribute
6- Attempt to save
7- the WebUI hangs
workaround - refreshing the browser fixes the hand (but changes are lost)
is this a defect?

Hi Eric, I'm using RTC 4.0.1 and I obtain the same hanging behavior. I suspect the problem is that in the presentation there's an attribute removed from the attribute list. If my idea is plausible, is there a way to discover the "ghost" attribute and remove it from the presentation?
Thanks
PS: in the js console i obtain the following:
Uncaught Error: ItemProxy:setValue -> attributeId is null cannot be null
_1
dojo.declare.setValue
_a6
dojo.declare.setValue
dojo.declare._handleTextChange
(anonymous function)
dojo.declare.onPreSave
(anonymous function)
(anonymous function)
dojo.publish
dojo.declare._getSaveAppArgs
dojo.declare.storeWorkItem
dojo.declare.save
dojo.declare._handleSaveClick

Hello Raffaele,
I would start and use Firebug and and search for the missing attribute.
could be a good starting point.
Thanks.
Eric.
