Search type not registered when 'Support Collections' checked. (VM Tactic 4.8.0.b04)

[tim]

hi
I've created VM in virtualbox. (Tactic 4.8.0.b04).
And when I'm creating stype with collections support I'm encountering error.
I've attached images too

Error: Search type [test2_201202_differenttemplate/product_items_in_product_items] not registered

Hi!
You should create the relationship node in schema "product_items_in_product_items"

Hey listy. thanks for suggestion.
What do you mean by creating relationship node. Could you give more details on it please.
I just created ordinary node 'product_items_in_product_items'
Which was not that smooth process by the way(i've attached screens)
but after i'm getting another type of error when i'm trying to view that stype. I've tried on 4.7 i was getting same error when ive checked support collections box.

Hi!
"Collections" is not documented function, so i can't put here a link to docs.
When i have spare time i will try to create collection on simple project and give you step-by-step.

The checkbox on the creation of the Search Type should have created all the necessary relations, including the creation of the "product_items_in_product_items" search type. Obviously something went wrong on the creation process.

Did that node in your schema image get created or did you have to create it manually?

I just want to tell you it was never works that way   
I think it is broken since the days it was added to tactic

I've created it Manually after Listy's reply. But it did not fix an issue. (I've tried to check "support collections" in 4.7 VM and I had the same error message)

I am not sure why this is the case. It should just create the search_type with the necessary connections. This checkbox doesn't really make sense without creating the connecting search type and schema entries (which would make it the expected smooth process).

Right now, you do have to create it manually. From your image of your schema, it looks like you create the node and named it appropriate. However, this just places an empty node on the Schema canvas. The actual search type for this node hasn't been registered yet. To do this, you would right-click on the node and select "Reigister sType". You also need to connect you nodes properly.

This is all a bit tricky when you are connecting a table to itself (it's much easier with a many-to-many connection between two tables). The collections checkbox was supposed to make this whole process much easier, but it looks like it is only partially implemented.

Hi Folks,

Was this ever solved? I'm using TACTIC-4.8.0.b04-Fedora31-VM and having this same issue.
Is there documentation anywhere on how to create and connect the required nodes?

Thank you.
