Hi. I'm on HN. I'm running the latest google chrome.

I'm not going to go back and open up the developer tools to see which part of the buggy javascript UI crashed. I will say again though that the UI was throwing 'unhandled exceptions'. Do I really need to defend myself here? When is it ever a good idea for a user of a piece of software; especially ERP software which by it's very nature will interact with non-technical users constantly, to ever see an unhandled exception. Come on.

Just for fun. I went back to their website: demo1.openerp.com. It takes 2 seconds to crash their websites by interacting with it. Just click on their navigation links on the top of the page quickly.

Here is a link: http://imgur.com/fp8oW

This is an easily reproducible problem. Come on.

You got more than I did. I just got a stack trace after clicking the [Create] button.

Technically, you got more than I did. =)

Hi. I'm on HN. I'm running the latest google chrome.

I'm glad. Alas, I know many people who are forced to use IE in their workplace.

I'm not attacking you or asking you to defend yourself, just offering a suggestion. I hadn't try the demo site, but we've been working on 7.0 for a few weeks and we didn't have such issues, and the Runbot instance[1] is also working fine.

If I may ask, where did you get that link? Did you "shared the news" and got the link from them? Because that demo site seems outdated, and not linked from the site.

Links to it are plastered all over this thread claiming to point to the current demo. No, I didn't share anything.

For instance, here is one: https://demo2.openerp.com/#action=114 that was posted a few comments up.

I've tried pretty much all of them listed in this thread. They all take me to the same interface that crashes.

This link is not correct. It goes directly to the demo server, but without credentials to a demo database. Use http://sorrysap.com/saas_master/demo?lang=en_US&module=m... to log to a random demo database.

I didn't want to let your comment stand as it suggests the fault was mine due to using an incorrect link. So, I followed the link you posted. I clicked on the navigation items, rapidly but not unreasonably so, it took me 2 seconds for it to throw another exception.
