Question

I want to create a user select list plugin and i have managed to create the same and retrieve the user list to vm file but when i save the issue it gives an error saying "Invalid value 'xxxxxx' only ,-1 is allowed".How to handle it?

I have overrided the method getVelocityParams() present in the SelectCFType. But still I m struggling with the same .

Can any body help me in resolving the issue.

I have also one problem please also tell me How to store the value in the databse for the same plugin?

Your code doesn't do anything about the list of options that the select list has to validate against.

As well as the user ID check, I suspect that you might be using the wrong type of field - a select list needs valid *options*.  Is your value of 1000 on the list of options you've set up for your custom select list?  If not, then this error is correct.

This is why I suggested using a different base - I think you need a field type that does NOT have a list of options.

Think of it this way - you have a field called "colour", which has options of "red", "blue" and "yellow".  Your javascript is saying "set the value to green".  Of course it chokes when you try to save it - green is not on the option list.

The table is CustomFieldValue. But as Nic suggested, did you check if there is a user with id 1000? Shouldn't it be the username for a user that you are saving?

I m doing like this. This is giving me the options correct but as I click on CreateIssue button the error is thrown as "Invalid value '1000' passed. Allowed values are ,-1". Please help me in this. I want one help also i.e. How to store the select value in the databse. And in which table it is stored.
