Header row for subtasks in issue view

Question

We would like to show header row for sub-tasks in issue view and are using http://forums.atlassian.com/thread.jspa?threadID=27500 provided solution. It looks like in JIRA 4.3.3 it works ok, but creates spam in logs like:

2011-06-21 09:15:33,826 http-8080-3 WARN user 555x264198x1 165siyn 193.40.5.11,193.40.5.74 /browse/XYZ-4916 [velocity] org.apache.velocity.runtime.exception
.ReferenceException: reference : template = templates/jira/issue/table/issuetable-header.vm [line 55,column 52] : ${field.id} is not a valid reference.

        at org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.node.SimpleNode.render(SimpleNode.java:230)

So is there a way to get rid of this spam or any other way to show header row?

Hi Jaan,

we as well us "layout.setDisplayHeader(true);" and have the logs polluted. Unfortunately no option to get rid of the errors..investigation ongoing.

BR, Markus

This parameter adds subtask create form only, not the header row for subtasks.

I think you need not do that for showing the sub-tasks bar in the parent issue. The below content is from http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA03x/Subtask+creation+form+enhancements This is done by editing jira-application.properties, and setting the following property to true: # Should we show the form for creating subtasks in the parent issue even when there are no subtasks yet? jira.view.issue.show.quicksubtask.when.no.subtasks=true
