1. In Configuration Wizard

2. Create a new variable

3. Variable: "ConfigVar"

4. Value: "This is a Config Var"

5. Type: "Text"

6. Prompt Type: Notice Options appears

7. Change Prompt type to: Multiple Selection

//Expected: Options to appear to enter what could be selected.

//Actual: Options disappears.

8. Press OK&nbsp;

9. Select "Edit" and Edit Dialog appears

10. Make no changes and press OK.

// Expected: Dialog to Close

// Actual: An unexpected error&nbsp;occurred&nbsp;whilst performing an AJAX request with the web server, please try again.

11. Press Cancel to close Dialog

12. Press Delete on the created variable

//Expected: Variable to be deleted.

// Actual: An unexpected error occured whilst performing an AJAX request with the web server, please try again.

If Leave the page "/My\_First\_Project/builds/configwizard/variables/Config%201" &nbsp;by selecting Stages then return to the page

I notice that prompt type is now blank. &nbsp; If I leave it blank I am able to Edit and delete as expected.

Further testing shows me that I can recreate this with memo prompt types as well (I have not tried any other type)

Hi Robert,

Good catch on the bug. It happens when a variable is created and the page isn't refreshed. It's fixed in the next build but for now (if you need to get around it) you can just refresh the page after creating a variable. I'm not sure why the prompt type was emptied but it might've just been a side effect of the main problem.&nbsp;
