What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Try to delete a record which is referenced by another table in the database.
2. Note that the error message you get when you do this isn't very helpful -
something like 'Unable to delete the record. The error detected was: null'
3. Note that a few months ago (certainly at the point when the original version
of the documentation was written) the error message had a bit more content to
it - something like the one visible in the attached screenshot. It was rather
cryptic, but did at least give some useful information - namely that the record
was still being referenced by another table.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
This seems to be part of a wider pattern within the ORDS, where error messages
are uninformative. Telling users that 'The error detected was: null' doesn't
help them know how to fix the problem.
