With an advanced cache system in use the following line causes problems:

  $form['#cache'] = TRUE;

(line 344)

With this set to TRUE you can end up with the following error:
No row selected. Please select one or more rows.

Setting the cache to FALSE resolves the issue and shouldn't cause much of a performance hit.

Patch attached to simply change the #cache setting to FALSE.

I remember introducing this setting because VBO needed it. I will check in CVS what prompted this, and get back to you.

.. this particular change may not have been completely necessary, the server has been showing other issues.. some in relation to #541258: Option to not show tag vocabularies as they can be too long..

In your latest comment, are you referring to your patch or to the #cache setting?

If the issue is deeper than just setting #cache on or off, then please mark this issue as postponed until we find a reproducible scenario. Thanks!

Could another event on the site be clearing the cache_form table and causing this to stop working?

Not sure who you're asking. But were you able to trace the selection issue to a loss of cached form info?

I have extended the style plugin class and am trying to use an AHAH-powered element in a configurable action. It is unable to retrieve the plugin form parameter from cache because the plugin class definition isn't loaded before the call to form_get_cache(). From the ahah callback, manually calling views_get_view(), set the display and init the style plugin the call to form_get_cache() successfully loads the cached parameter.

I am yet to find a clean way to load the necessary plugins without the overhead of loading the entire view.

Might be related to #361871: VBO loses selection with caching module.

VBO 6.x-1.x (and 6.x-1.11-beta1) no longer has $form['#cache'] = TRUE; Since pretty much everything changed since this (very old) issue has last been active, closing it. Reopen if it still fails with the new code.
