---------------------------------
Summary: Cannot tell a processor is "STOPPING", can edit, cannot
restart it
Key: NIFI-2545
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2545
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core Framework, Core UI
Affects Versions: 1.0.0
Reporter: Joseph Witt
Fix For: 1.0.0
Testing ListenSMTP processor. It has some bad behavior whereby it will not
stop when told to. But on the UI i cannot tell that at all. So, i went to
edit the processor config which I was able to do. Then went to start it and I
get
{quote}
7667f0c7-0156-1000-8181-5b556f8544da cannot be started because it is not
stopped. Current state is STOPPING
{quote}
There should be a visual indicator of its status and we should not be able to
edit a processor which is not stopped.
More details on that specific case here
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2519#
But key is that a bad behaving processor can allow the user to do things they
should not be able to.
