Installation problems / Problems upgrading from 1.6.2 to 1.7.5

« on: November 09, 2011, 09:28:05 pm »

Hi everybody!

I've recently had a problem upgrading a FengOffice installation at version 1.6.2 to version 1.7.5, apparently due to a couple of extra blank spaces in the update file that shouldn't be there! So firstly I want to share this information for anyone that might be having a similar problem.

Check the attached file 'Problem_upgrading_162_to_175.zip' for 3 screenshots:
1) The error I was getting when trying to run the upgrade
2) The culprit file (/public/upgrade/templates/db_migration/1_7_pastafrola.php)! The two extra blank spaces (i.e. ASCII 32, Hex 0x20) are the green rectangles at the end of two lines near the end of the file. Upon deleting those extra spaces the script ran fine!
3) Final result - upgrade successful!

Although the update (apparently) worked, my FengOffice installation appears to be broken. I'm getting error messages when I try to view the list of Notes, Contacts, Documents or Web Links in any Workspace (with 1.6.2 all of the lists would appear without any problem). The messages are of the form "There are no <insert type here> tagged as '[object Object]' in 'JUNITEC'" (JUNITEC is the name of the workspace that was selected at the time). Please see for yourself - file 'My_FengOffice_After_Upgrade_to_175.zip' has screenshots for the various different screens.

Has anyone had this problem before?

Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide!

Older versions / [1.6.2] E-mail sent before permissions are checked (when creating event)?

« on: April 14, 2010, 08:21:44 am »

A user tried to add an event in a workspace in which he has no permission to do so.

When he tried to submit the event (after configuring it: selecting subscribers, invited people, etc), he got the "no permissions" dialog box (or at least I think he did: I wasn't there at the time, but his description seems to match). At the same time I (and the other invited/subscribed people) got e-mails saying that a new event had been created.

He tried 4 times, so we all received 4 e-mails (with different, sequential, Unique Ids), but no event appeared since he didn't have permisisons.

Can it be that the e-mails (announcing a new event) are being sent before the user permisisons (to add the event) are checked?

Also, it might be worth checking if the code is behaving like this for other objects (notes, contacts, etc...), this could be a "general" issue, not specific to events.
