Description Michael Meeks 2009-02-25 14:55:56 UTC

Was trying to demo the build service to get some new hacker setup with it at SCALE, and I hit the 'trigger build' button, and the repository had no target distributions added to it.

I got the world's least helpful error - of the form: "Error: 1234 - something failed" ;-)

It would be lovely to get some "Select a target distribution to add to your repository" page, or at least, a more verbose error msg with a link to that page (?).

I just committed a fix (r6777) which exactly does what you suggested. Another fix might be to disable the "trigger rebuild" link if no repository is defined but your idea is more "userfriendly" IMHO.

I think we can close this bug because it's already fixed.
