I have some issues with a HTTP post step in Pentaho. If I preview it works, and does the post acuratly, however when I properly run the transformation I get this error (in the HTTP post step). The thing is there is no name field at all in the HTTP step that corresponds to the issue.
I’ve tried to run a single post, multiple posts, iterrations. Same outcome when “Run”, no error occures when I do a “preview”. Changed the payload to minimum, etc. When I preview it post the action accuratly. I don’t believe it is an issue of the payload it self, I think the step somehow bugs out.
I’ve tried Pentaho 9.0 and 9.4.
