[Bug]: Repeat Attributes Still Affect Workflow When Repeat Is Disabled in Start Action
Apache Hop version?
2.14
Java version?
17.0.12
Operating system
Windows
What happened?
When configuring the Start action in Apache Hop, there is an option to enable or disable the Repeat checkbox. When Repeat is disabled, the associated repeat attributes such as Seconds and Minutes are correctly greyed out in the UI, indicating they should be inactive.
However, these attributes still appear to have an effect on the workflow execution behavior even though Repeat is turned off — but only when the Scheduling Type is set to Interval.
If the Scheduling Type is set to "No Scheduling", the behavior is as expected, and the repeat attributes are correctly ignored when Repeat is disabled. This can lead to unexpected behavior and confusion, as users would assume that greyed-out settings are ignored.
Expected Behavior:
- When Repeat is disabled, all attributes should have no effect on the workflow execution.
