Confirmed. The problem seems to happen for issues with parent tasks.

I have the following in the history for one issue:

  • Tracker changed from Bug to Feature
Updated by Andrew about 22 hours ago
  • Parent task set to #5
Updated by Andrew Vit about 22 hours ago
  • Tracker changed from Support to Feature
Updated by Andrew Vit about 22 hours ago
  • Tracker changed from Support to Feature

After the first change, the issue becomes a "Feature" as expected. After the second change, it goes into "Support" without being asked, and will not change from there unless the parent task is removed.

Thanks for taking the time to look into this, but the issues that I have been trying to move do not have a parent task assigned.

I had a look through the source but I'm not familiar enough with Redmine to see what's happening.

Not sure if my issue is related or if I just hijacked your issue... Mine could be a different problem since yours gives an error and also happens without parent tasks.

I have looked more into this issue and found a work around. the update was failing because the other tracker has required custom fields. once the "required" option was turned off we are now able to move tickets to another tracker.

Sorry, too fast, didn't see note 6.

Would be nice to have a more detailed error message.

Hi, this is no longer an issue. The problem was that the tracker that I was trying to move to had required fields. It took sometime to figure out since redmine does not give any warnings about required fields for the tracker trying to move to. so it fails the save operation.

  • Subject changed from Unable to move tickets to a different tracker. to Move issues to a different tracker with required fields should output explicit errors or help messages
  • Status changed from Resolved to New
  • Priority changed from Urgent to Normal

We should improve the error message if we don't provide a way to fill these fields.

Updated by Sebastian M almost 13 years ago

While I agree a better error message would be good, I would like to see the issue corrected functionally.

My preference would be that when moving an issue, any custom fields in the destination project, particularly required ones, are shown on the move page. This gives the mover the opportunity to set the proper values and the move could succeed.

Thanks

Already fixed for 1.4.0. When moving issue(s) to a different project or tracker, you are now able to fill the target custom fields. BTW, the "Move" functionnality has been cleaned up and merged into the regular edit/bulk_edit form.
