Thanks Partha. I opened one at https://support.atlassian.com/browse/CSP-53376.

Dear Royce,

The outcome of CSP-49357 is:

Hi Sabera,

Unfortunately, I am not able to reproduce your problem here using Confluence 3.2.1 as I am able to add a task to the dynamic tasklist

I am seeing the following error messages in your logs:

...
2010-07-21 16:04:35,846 ERROR [TP-Processor2] [atlassian.confluence.event.ConfluenceEventManager] publishEvent An exception was encountered while processing the event: com.atlassian.confluence.event.events.content.page.PageUpdateEvent[source=com.atlassian.confluence.pages.DefaultPageManager@5f2fe2]

It seems that the Scaffolding Plugin may be interfering with the functionality of the TaskList Macro. After looking at your System Info:

...
Scaffolding Plugin 3.1.0 CustomWare Asia Pacific Enabled
...

I can confirm to you that you are using an older plugin version which is not compatible with Confluence 3.2.1. To solve your problem, here is what you can do:

1. Remove/uninstall this older plugin version
2. Download either 3.4.0 or 3.4.1 Scaffolding plugin version
3. Install it into Confluence
4. Try adding a task this time to the dynamic tasklist

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Joachim

I will close this issue as a duplicate of CONF-18158.

I notice that you get the same issue but with no stack trace.

Can you create a support ticket at http://support.atlassian.com and reproduce the problem then go to Administration > Support Utility > Create Support Zip, and attach the support.zip to the support case. One of our support engineers will be able to help you.

Kind Regards,
Partha Kamal

What is the resolution? And which version of the tasklist macro are we your using? Can't view https://support.atlassian.com/browse/CSP-49357 because of security restriction. Thanks.
