KitagawaSan1337 error: CANNOT_INSERT_UPDATE_ACTIVATE_ENTITY, maximum trigger depth exceeded
I have a trigger to update a custom 'last activity date' when ever a task is marked as closed:
trigger TaskUpdateAccountdate on Task (after insert, after update) {
List<Account> acctToUpdate = new List<Account>();
for(Task tsk : trigger.new)
{if (tsk.IsClosed)
accsToUpdate.add(new Account(Id = tsk.AccountId, Last_Activity_Date__c = Datetime.now()));
}
Update acctToUpdate;
}
It was working before, but now I get an error:
Error: Invalid Data.
Review all error messages below to correct your data.

Not sure what is going on, or why this worked before...
Any ideas?
Thanks!
It looks like you have this trigger on Task updating accounts, and a trigger on accounts updating tasks, and so they end up goind round & round between them until you get to the trigger depth limit (this is why there's a trigger depth limit). one easy fix would be to look from the transition on isClosed (i.e. trigger.new[i].isClosed && !trigger.old[i].isClosed rather than just looking at the current state, which'll fire every time.
Ah, youre right...
I was trying to write a trigger to transfers all open tasks for an account when the account owner is changed... That must have caused the issue. Is there a way to write such a trigger that would not cause this issue? It seems like it would be fairly easy, but I am admittedly not a dev...

I got this so far, but am still getting an error:
Error: Compile Error: Initial term of field expression must be a concrete SObject: LIST<Task> at line 6 column 5
trigger UpdateTasks on Account (after update) { Set<Id> ids=Trigger.newmap.keyset(); List<Task> t =[SELECT ID, WhatId,Status,OwnerId FROM task WHERE WhatId IN:ids]; for(Task ol: t) t.Status='Completed'; update t; }Looks like you're flipping around your variables - within the loop, you need to reference "ol" as the Task record. "t" at the end is your list.

//requery on the record to create a copy of the record
Account updateaccount=[select id from account where id = :myAccount.id];
updateaccount.type='Prospect';
update updateaccount;
}
Please help me on this.
