Description

I've found this through hammer.

Some fields, such as fullname for OS, aren't searchable. However, the api/UI throw
an ugly 500 reminder that the search term is not available.

From the UI side it's ugly but at least the user knows what's going on. API clients however, don't, and get a 500 error.

I'll try to fix both, and add fullname as a supported search term for OSs.

I was searching for a specific operating system by typing the name of the OS in the searchbox. They UI displayed this error:

PGError: ERROR: column reference "id" is ambiguous LINE 1: SELECT id FROM "operatingsystems" INNER JOIN "parameters" p... ^ : SELECT id FROM "operatingsystems" INNER JOIN "parameters" parameters_324772 ON ("operatingsystems".id = parameters_324772.reference_id) WHERE ((parameters_324772."name" = '') AND ("operatingsystems"."name" ILIKE '%3yiltmqb%' OR "operatingsystems"."major" ILIKE '%3yiltmqb%' OR "operatingsystems"."minor" ILIKE '%3yiltmqb%' OR "operatingsystems"."description" ILIKE '%3yiltmqb%' OR "operatingsystems"."type" ILIKE '%3yiltmqb%' OR "architectures"."name" ILIKE '%3yiltmqb%' OR "media"."name" ILIKE '%3yiltmqb%' OR "config_templates"."name" ILIKE '%3yiltmqb%' OR parameters_324772."value" ILIKE '%3yiltmqb%')) ORDER BY operatingsystems.name LIMIT 20 OFFSET 0

Searching by using the pattern "name = $FOO" works though.

Could we get this done within the next sprint?

We probably should finish this as it affects Hammer as well.

Basically the way we handle ScopedSearch errors works for a few controllers but not for most of them.

broken: usergroups
                      settings
                      models
                      images
                      bookmarks
                      architectures
                      trends
                      media
                      roles
                      auth_source_ldaps
                      smart_proxy
                      ptables
                      operatingsystems
                      environments
                      domains
                      common_parametesr
                      subnets

fine:   compute_resources
                      hosts
                      reports
                      users
                      lookup_values
                      hostgroups
                      config_templates
                      puppetclasses
                      autosign
                      lookup_keys
                      puppetca
                      fact_values
                      audits

n/a:    statistics
                      dashboard
                      facts
                      about
                      compute_resources_vms

I'm on it now, and probably after this we should refactor it all into a rails concern to handle errors. Error handling code is sprinkled all around Foreman.
