Error: transition superseded

[reviloera]

Same here. pls fix

[aestheticsdata]

Are you accessing directly a state ?

[justinotero]

Same here, my root state is loaded but when I try to access another state I get Error: transition superseded for any and all states.

Angular - 1.3.7
Ang-UI-Router - 0.2.18

Can you guys put your version of angular & ui-router

Once I upgraded to Angular-UI-Router - 0.3.2

Started working fine.

Transition superseded is probably caused by a bug in your code.

A transition is a long running operation (due to async processes, etc). Transition superseded means that there was a transition #1 started and it hasn't yet completed. While it was running, a new transition #2 was also started. Transition #2 supersedes Transition #1. The promise for the transition is rejected with the message "Error: Transition Superseded" so you know the original transition is now aborted.

This is normal behavior if you start a transition, then supersede it with a new transition.

I'm not sure what would print the error message (I don't think we log anything like that in ui-router 0.2.x).

In ui-router 1.0 we have a defaultErrorHandler which logs errors to the console, including Transition Superseded. If you don't want to log Transition Superseded in ui-router 1.0, you should customize the $state.defaultErrorHandler() and filter out errors that look like the Transition Superseded ones.

Closing because this is probably not a bug. However, I'll reopen if a reproduction can be posted that demonstrates a bug.

FWIW, I had an old version of angular-ui-router. When I updated angular-ui-router, the issue went away. Did this fix anyone else?

[justinotero]

@joshunger I did updated UI-Router and it resolved the issue momentarily, but it came back.

[aneurysmjs]

it starts to yelling me that when updating my app to angular 1.6.1

[justinotero]

@blackendstudios Don't update angular, try updating Angular UI Router. I am running Angular 1.3.7 with updated Angular UI Router of 0.3.2 and I am not longer seeing Error: transition superseded

[aneurysmjs]

@justinotero I fixed it, look!! http://stackoverflow.com/questions/41450712/angularjs-and-ui-router-error-transition-superseded-during-angularjs-unit-te/41515812#41515812

you need to update both angular and the ui-router

[mch24]

Just wanted to add to the tally of people who upgraded to AngularJS 1.6.1 and UI-Router 0.3.2 who are consistently getting the "Error: transition superseded" in the console.

[trask]

Yeah, I'm getting it also (angular 1.6.1 and ui-router 0.3.2)

[severin2]

It'd be super helpful if the error message for superseded transitions had information about what transition of fromState->toState collided with what other transition from fromState2->toState2.

I was using
angular.module('myApp').run(appRun); appRun.$inject = ['$state']; function appRun($state) { $state.go('home'); }
In my app config file. As I removed the logic from app.run, it got fixed.
