Dear all,
We are using IPT 2.5.1, on a server with Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_131-b11) and tomcat7.
In managing a newly created resource, if we navigate to Metadata, section citation, we get the following error:
=====
FreeMarker template error (HTML_DEBUG mode; use RETHROW in production!)
Java method "org.gbif.ipt.model.Resource.generateResourceCitation(String, String)" threw an exception when invoked on org.gbif.ipt.model.Resource object "Resource ibi_mantodea_01"; see cause exception in the Java stack trace.

=====
Could anyone help to sort out how to resolve this problem? Let me know if you need any more information.
best,
Rui

Hi Rui,
I think I had the same problem... This might be a workaround, try to publish the data first (privately) and by miracle the issue of the citation was fixed. For me, the error was that I only had a blink screen when navigating to the citations section..

Hi Ditrimi,
Thank you for the suggestion. It works as a workaround, we will use it until the issue is solved.
Best,
Rui
