Base language Norwegian causes the Manage Build to stall.

Troubleshooting


Problem

When installing and deploying Manage with the base language set as Norwegian, the Manage admin build stalls and the CR is hung indefinitely.

Symptom

Manage deployment is stalled indefinitely. The Build CR will display the following error ...
An unhandled exception occurred while running the lookup plugin 'template'. 
Error was a <class 'ansible.errors.AnsibleError'>, original message: An unhandled exception occurred while templating '{{ languagesToDelete|langZipsToDelete(languageZips) }}'. 
Error was a <class 'ansible.errors.AnsibleError'>, original message: An unhandled exception occurred while templating '{{ languagesRequested|langsToDelete(languageCodes) }}'. 
Error was a <class 'AttributeError'>, original message: 'bool' object has no attribute 'lower'

Cause

The baseLanguage element in the Build CR is set to false when in actuality it should be set to 'NO' . This is a glitch in the code where it interprets the value as false and not 'NO'.

Environment

Manage 8.4.0 and 8.3.x

Resolving The Problem

To resolve this issue ...
Just replace baseLang: false element by baseLang: `NO` in the ManageBuild cr. This will trigger the stalled build. Because the operator reconciliation will reset it back to false the same step described above will have to be performed, should another build be required.
