Problem Note 53479: The exception "HTTP 500 Internal Server Error" occurs when you reject or validate an assessment

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

In SAS® Enterprise GRC, when two users edit an assessment at the same time, it is possible to receive the exception "HTTP 500 Internal Server Error." When one of the users tries to take action with the assessment, this error occurs instead of a message noting that the assessment has been edited by another user.

This is one sequence of events that can result in the exception:

  1. User A creates the assessment (QBA) and sends for the assessment.
  2. User B opens the assessment and enters the scores.
  3. User B submits the assessment for validation.
  4. User A opens the assessment for validation.
  5. At the same time, user B opens the assessment again, updates it, and saves it.
  6. User A rejects the assessment.

This exception occurs in the log:

There is no damage to data. The workaround is to stop editing and close the assessment. Reopen the assessment and try to edit it again.
