Business Rule to abort action not redirecting back to same record

[SC10]

I have a Business Rule running during update, with "When" as "Before", on the the sc_task table:

(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/) {
   if(current.variables.offboard_desktoprecoverassets == '' && current.state == "3"){
   current.state=previous.state;
   current.setAbortAction(true);
   gs.addInfoMessage('NOTICE: Please select an option for desktop recovery below completing the task.');
   gs.setRedirect(current);
   }
})(current, previous);

Everything seems to working as the state changes back to Open (the previous state on a new catalog task), the info message comes up on the screen, but my redirect is not working.

Hi ShaneCossever,

This is a known issue (PRB604580). gs.setRedirect() in combination with current.setAbortAction(true) not executed.

Do you know of a workaround?

I think, you can set all the fields to their old values and simply redirect with the error message. This will prevent any value change triggers in the system and might serve the purpose.

Hello @ShaneCossever, 

You can fix this using URL address (tested on Newyork). The code can be similar to:

var url = gs.getProperty("glide.servlet.uri") + gs.action.getGlideURI();

gs.addErrorMessage("Error message");
current.setAbortAction(true);
gs.setRedirect(url);

Thank you
