Feed creator wizard - proxy creation error

[michal.roszak_0767]

Hi,

When I'm trying to create Feed connected to another feed (external maven repo) using wizard I'm getting error:

An error occurred in the web application: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

If I create Connector and Feed separately and "combine" them in config page it's OK.

If I use default endpoint eg. maven.org or pypi.org, creator completes successfully.
Error occurs with any other endpoint.

I tried with various Maven2 and PyPI.

Hi @michal-roszak_0767 ,

Thanks for letting us know!

Unfortunately the Feed Wizard seems to have some quirky behavior when configuring certain combinations of options, as you've noticed. We are actually in the process of rewriting the new feed wizard to be a bit more simpler (esapecially behind-the-scenes), hopefully in the next couple weeks it'll be in a new maintenance release.

In the meantime, if you encounter these errors... I would just create the connectors on the MAnage Feed page. Which it sounds like you've done :)
