[rt-users] User asked for an unknown update type for customfield Category for RT

[Aaron Sallade]

This happens when you have a custom field select with categories set in
the custom field items. It is supposed to group the items into
categories. What happens is that the UI doesn't select the category drop
down in the custom field with the selected value from the database, so
it throws an error. The only work around I have seen is to manually
select the category as well as the line item from the CF each time you
do an edit. 

You could write JavaScript or an overlay that selects it for you based
on the content of the CF, but it would be cumbersome to maintain.

I know it is already a couple of weeks ago since I asked the first
time. But I still try to find an answer. I also installed version
3.6.5 on a different test box, and I get the same error. Is there
someone who could give me some information about that?

Thanks

Robert
