Change on calling .Datatables([]) repeatedly after .clear(),destroy()

leolikesbass

I call this repeatedly, and this application has been working fine until yesterday(I get the nightly builds). Everything changed yesterday.

table= $("#openTicketList").DataTable({
"createdRow": function( row, data, dataIndex){

        if( data["Assigned"] ==  `N`){

            $(row).addClass('gridUnassigned');
        }

    },
    "fnDrawCallback": function (oSettings) {
        alert("callback funcion");
    },
      select: true,
    "dom": 'T<"clear">lfrtip',
    "ajax": {url:'jsps/ajaxData/Factrak/getOpenTix.jsp?srv_dept='+ $( "#srvDeptSelect").val(),dataSrc:""},


        select: true,
        "order": [[ 1, "desc" ]],
        "aoColumns": [
            { "mData": "Ticket ID"},
            { "mData": "Ticket Number"},
            { "mData": "Activity"},
            { "mData": "Priority"},
            { "mData": "Date Rcv"},
            { "mData": "Location"},
            { "mData": "Requestor"},
            { "mData": "Req phone"},
            { "mData": "Assigned"},
            { "mData": "Serv dept"},
            { "mData": "Date Req"}

        ],
        "columnDefs": [
            {
                "targets": [ 0, 10 ],
                "visible": false,
                "searchable": false
            }
        ]
       });

When I am about to reload this, I call table.clear.destroy(). I have replaced it with the .url().load(), but just a note ab out what happened.

Getting error when i destroy table object

$(tableId + ' thead').empty();

Are you building a new header? If not then you columns.title to have Datatables build the header or don't remove it.

If you still need help the please provide a link to your page or a test case replicating the issue.
