Trigger not working in Production

 

Hi All,

 

I am writting a trigger which is updating a field removing all the Html tags.

 

trigger UpdateSearsDescriptionFieldUpdate on ECS__Product__c (before insert, before update) {    

             for(ECS__Product__c pro : Trigger.new){   

                 if(pro.ECS__Description__c != null && pro.ECS__Description__c != ''){       

                      string result = pro.ECS__Description__c.replaceAll('\'<\'br/\'>\'',' ');  

                      result = result.replaceAll('\'<\'br /\'>\'',' ');   

                      string HTML_TAG_PATTERN = '\'<\'.*?\'>\'';

                      pattern myPattern = pattern.compile(HTML_TAG_PATTERN);  

                      matcher myMatcher = myPattern.matcher(result);

                      result = myMatcher.replaceAll(' '); 

                      result = result.replaceAll('<br>',' ');

                      result = result.replaceAll('\'&lt;\'',' ');

                      result = result.replaceAll('\'&gt;\'',' ');

                      pro.Sears_com_Description__c = result;   

                     System.debug('pro.Sears_com_Description__c-----:'+pro.Sears_com_Description__c);  

       }

     }

 }

 

This trigger is working fine in SandBox but not working in prodution. ECS__Description__c is of Rich Text data type and Sears_com_Description__c is of long text area.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Thanks,

Kiran

Try putting some debug statements in the code to see what is / is not working.  For Example:

 

trigger UpdateSearsDescriptionFieldUpdate on ECS__Product__c (before insert, before update) {    

             for(ECS__Product__c pro : Trigger.new){  

                system.debug(' the variable pro is:' + pro);

                system.debug('ECS__Description is: ' + pro.ECS__Description__c);

                 if(pro.ECS__Description__c != null && pro.ECS__Description__c != ''){

                      system.debug (' The IF Statement is true");

                      string result = pro.ECS__Description__c.replaceAll('\'&lt;\'br/\'&gt;\'',' ');  

                      result = result.replaceAll('\'&lt;\'br /\'&gt;\'',' ');   

                      string HTML_TAG_PATTERN = '\'&lt;\'.*?\'&gt;\'';

                      pattern myPattern = pattern.compile(HTML_TAG_PATTERN);  

                      matcher myMatcher = myPattern.matcher(result);

                      result = myMatcher.replaceAll(' '); 

                      result = result.replaceAll('<br>',' ');

                      result = result.replaceAll('\'&lt;\'',' ');

                      result = result.replaceAll('\'&gt;\'',' ');

                      pro.Sears_com_Description__c = result;   

                     System.debug('pro.Sears_com_Description__c-----:'+pro.Sears_com_Description__c);  

       }

     }

 }

 

Also the line   if(pro.ECS__Description__c != null && pro.ECS__Description__c != '')   seems to be not quite right.  I'm wondering if your logic test is never returning TRUE and so nothing is being executed.  

 

Have you created a test class to test this trigger?
