Topic: Bundle $validate error: "Failed to call access method: ...

Hi,
I'm running the HAPI jpa server version 5.0.2, and when I'm running into an issue when I run the following:
curl -X POST \
'https://hapifhir-acc.mcapp.nl/hapi-fhir-jpaserver/fhir/Bundle/$validate' \
-H 'Cache-Control: no-cache' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Postman-Token: 2eca19eb-9ebf-8442-ca6a-9de44f4a7cdf' \
-d '{"resourceType":"Bundle","entry":[{"fullUrl":"urn:uuid:5ee894a3cee7b5.87207907","request":{"method":"POST","url":"Organization"},"resource":{"resourceType":"Organization","meta":{"profile":["http:\/\/fhir.nl\/fhir\/StructureDefinition\/nl-core-organization"],"tag":[{"code":"epd:finaltest123","system":"https:\/\/source-id.medicore.nl\/"}]},"identifier":[{"system":"https:\/\/unique-id.medicore.nl\/","value":"epd:finaltest123"}],"name":"JWZ"}}],"type":"transaction"}'
(please note: the server above is not reachable from the public internet)
As a result, It gives me the following validation error:
{
"resourceType": "OperationOutcome",
"text": {
"status": "generated",
"div": "<div xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\"><h1>Operation Outcome</h1><table border=\"0\"><tr><td style=\"font-weight: bold;\">ERROR</td><td>[]</td><td><pre>Failed to call access method: org.hl7.fhir.exceptions.DefinitionException: Attempt to a slice an element that does not repeat: Extension.valueCodeableConcept/valueCodeableConcept from http://nictiz.nl/fhir/StructureDefinition/code-specification in http://fhir.nl/fhir/StructureDefinition/nl-core-contactpoint</pre></td>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t</tr>\n\t\t</table>\n\t</div>"
},
"issue": [
{
"severity": "error",
"code": "processing",
"diagnostics": "Failed to call access method: org.hl7.fhir.exceptions.DefinitionException: Attempt to a slice an element that does not repeat: Extension.valueCodeableConcept/valueCodeableConcept from http://nictiz.nl/fhir/StructureDefinition/code-specification in http://fhir.nl/fhir/StructureDefinition/nl-core-contactpoint"
}
]
}
It tries to validate this (readable) bundle, that contains 1 Organization resource:
{
"resourceType": "Bundle",
"entry": [{
"fullUrl": "urn:uuid:5ee894a3cee7b5.87207907",
"request": {
"method": "POST",
"url": "Organization"
},
"resource": {
"resourceType": "Organization",
"meta": {
"profile": ["http:\/\/fhir.nl\/fhir\/StructureDefinition\/nl-core-organization"],
"tag": [{
"code": "epd:finaltest123",
"system": "https:\/\/source-id.medicore.nl\/"
}]
},
"identifier": [{
"system": "https:\/\/unique-id.medicore.nl\/",
"value": "epd:finaltest123"
}],
"name": "JWZ"
}
}],
"type": "transaction"
}
Now first of all, I'm not sure what to make of the "failed to call access method ... " error. Is this a bug in HAPI? Or is it a profile issue as suggested by the second part of the error message?
Secondly, when I take the Organization resource from the Bundle, and validate it directly against the Organization endpoint, it passes:
curl -X POST \
'https://hapifhir-acc.mcapp.nl/hapi-fhir-jpaserver/fhir/Organization/$validate' \
-H 'Cache-Control: no-cache' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Postman-Token: 1cd25175-ad8c-6b65-eed6-14dbd1e8ab22' \
-d '{
"resourceType": "Organization",
"meta": {
"profile": ["http:\/\/fhir.nl\/fhir\/StructureDefinition\/nl-core-organization"],
"tag": [{
"code": "epd:finaltest123",

}]
},
"identifier": [{
"system": "https:\/\/unique-id.medicore.nl\/",
"value": "epd:finaltest123"
}],
"name": "JWZ"
}'
{
"resourceType": "OperationOutcome",
"text": {
"status": "generated",
"div": "<div xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\"><h1>Operation Outcome</h1><table border=\"0\"><tr><td style=\"font-weight: bold;\">INFORMATION</td><td>[Organization.identifier[0], Line 10, Col 29]</td><td><pre>This element does not match any known slice defined in the profile http://fhir.nl/fhir/StructureDefinition/nl-core-organization</pre></td>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t</tr>\n\t\t</table>\n\t</div>"
},

"Line 10, Col 29"
]
}
]
}
Any idea what is going on here? All help is very much appreciated :)

Since the field that the validation error is about is part of the Organization resource (and not the Bundle), it must be that either the Bundle $validate (1st request) is failing unjustly, or that the Organization $validate (2nd request) is passing unjustly

Anyone?
Job Schipper (Jun 19 2020 at 07:26):
@James Agnew any idea?
James Agnew (Jun 22 2020 at 13:01):
Well the key bit of the error message is probably this part:
: Attempt to a slice an element that does not repeat: Extension.valueCodeableConcept/valueCodeableConcept from http://nictiz.nl/fhir/StructureDefinition/code-specification in http://fhir.nl/fhir/StructureDefinition/nl-core-contactpoint"
I'm assuming there is probably an error in the profile you're using.

@James Agnew thanks for confirming!
