Rules and custom multiple property

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

Hi.

I am having some problems with a rule that sends a mail if a multiple custom property contains one value.

Here is my custom property configuration asociated with an aspect:

<aspect name="xyz:minicia">
   <title>Mini compañía</title>
   <properties>
      <property name="xyz:minicia">
         <title>Mini compañías</title>
         <type>d:text</type>
         <multiple>true</multiple>
         <index enabled="true">
            <atomic>true</atomic>
            <stored>false</stored> 
            <tokenised>both</tokenised>
         </index>
      </property>
   </properties>
</aspect>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

My rule configuration:

   When: Items are created or enter this folder + Items are updated + Items are deleted
   If all criteria are met:
      xyz:minicia contains Prueba
   Perform Action: Send mail

The problem is that when a third application tries to upload a new file to the folder, an exception is always thrown:

If I change the criteria to met all files, it works fine. Similar rules for custom properties that are not multiple, also works fine.   
   
Any idea?

Thanks in advance.

This is a bug. I can reproduce it on 4.2.e Community Edition. Please search issues.alfresco.com to see if it has already been reported, and, if not, create a bug for it, then post a link to it here so the rest of us can find it and follow it.

Thanks ahead of time.
