How To's / Auto Upgrade?

« on: September 30, 2008, 01:03:25 am »

How does the upgrade in the administration panel work?  What precautions do I need to be aware of prior to an update?

General Discussion / Re: HTTPS Web Links

Glad to hear this.  It was puzzling me for a while.  All my https:// weblinks kept opening up http://www.theedge.com/ -- I though I'd been hijacked for a minute.

Thanks for the tip.  As I get more people onto this app, I can anticipate that complaint will come.

Feature requests / Calendar Tweak

« on: September 18, 2008, 11:17:22 pm »

Regarding the repeating events option when adding a new event to the calendar, it presumes that the event will be occuring only once per week.

I frequently have events that repeat multiple times weekly, for example:

Event A: Mondays and Wednesdays at 11:30am
Event B: Monday through Thursday at 3:00pm
Event C: Tuesday and Thursday of every second week at 8:30am

There is an option for repeating every X number of weeks, but I would like to include check boxes to select which days of each week the event gets repeated.

Currently, I have to create a separate event for Event A on Monday and another for Event A on Wednesdays, and so on...

Thoughts?  Anyone else experience this?

Feature requests / Re: Tightening up the Workspace List

« on: September 18, 2008, 11:08:52 pm »

After running the workspace list through my mind for the past 24 hours, I've realized that I am really (really,really!) impressed with how one can navigate through the workspaces via the popups along the dashboard at the top of the screen.

Perhaps altering the dropdown list to mimic this format would be more intuitive for expansive (and multi-level) workspaces?

That way we avoid the cumbersome clicking on '+' to expand a long sublist that is longer than the box that contains it, necessitating more scrolling up and down to find the next sub-level and expand again.

Feature requests / Tightening up the Workspace List

« on: September 18, 2008, 01:44:48 am »

I've noticed that once multiple workspaces (and sub-workspaces) get added, the drop down list (when editing or adding) gets quite cluttered, and that the only discernible order is alphabetical.

Although it's still workable, it's all too easy to place something into the wrong workspace--I would suggest that the list reflect the workspace pane (on the left) for more intuitive selection instead of having to mentally sort out whether it's the 'banks' subspace under Links or the 'banking' subspace under Documents?

And as an admin, with multiple users, it compounds the problem exponentially.

2¢.  But then I'm OCD

How To's / Workspace Security?

« on: September 18, 2008, 01:34:00 am »

I like the 'Properties' option with each added item, particularly with regards to the Weblinks.  I have been interested in using these to track various logins and passwords to the associated sites (not sharing the workspace with other users).

How secure is this with regards to the filesystem and/or MySQL?

Thus far I have been using mnemonics to enter the passwords (ie. 'reg+phone' or 'reg+reg+DOB'), but I am curious just how far this can be utilized securely?  Or am I completely misunderstanding the usage of this dashboard option?

Thanks!

The uploading is a relatively minor feature for my usage of the app itself, so I think I'm gonna have to give up on that aspect for now. 

My .htaccess was already set for php_value memory_limit 32M; I doubled it for fun with the same result.  No change to the log.php except the usual:

Gotcha.  Thanks for the clarification.  I was misunderstanding the level of integration of opengoo with the filesystem.

ERROR-

I chmodded /cache and /public/files to 755 as previously discussed, and things worked fine until I attempted to update user avatars (while logged in with full admin privileges):

After chmod these two directories back to 777 avatar update executed without a problem.

I'm not really comfortable leaving those directories world-writeable.  Why is a legitimate opengoo user (as included in the MySQL database) not permitted to write to this directory? 

Sorry for the idiocy.

How To's / Re: Uploadign of files error

« on: September 14, 2008, 10:53:34 pm »

No problem. 

I've included a screenshot of the error (pops up for only a fraction of a second when it fails).  Files smaller than 2MB seem to be OK, with most of the trouble resulting from uploading larger files, despite changing my .htaccess to 16MB (which is reflected in the upload dialog screen; see second attached screenshot.)

I understand that the 'multiple workspaces' error is a legacy developer warning, but for some reason still gets logged each time an upload fails.

I've also attached a .txt copy of the logfile.

Thanks!

I think I may have miscommunicated a little in my last post--

I am still having problems, despite the changes to the .htaccess and the move from filesystem to database uploads.

Sorry for the confusion.

Feature requests / Re: Importing Bookmarks/Weblinks?

« on: September 12, 2008, 11:32:10 pm »

While I'm thinking about the weblinks, I'm a very visually oriented person,and it would be tremendous to be able to pull down, cache, and display the fav.ico for each link. 

Also, if the app could 'ping' each link at intervals (14, 30, 60, 90, or 120 days) it could replace the fav.ico with something to indicate broken links, if applicable.

there appears to be filetype limitations associated with the upload?  I've attempted a variety of files, and the typical .txt, .doc, .html, .jpg all work fine, but .tar, .gz, and .mp3 all fail.

Or is it a transfer protocol problem?

Marcos, I'm understanding then that my file uploading issue is unrelated to the developer warning--what is your recommended next step in troubleshooting this problem?

I've set my .htaccess to allow up to 16MB, and set the upload to the database instead of file, with the same results.

Thanks again for all your great assistance!

Thanks, Marcos-

I'm much more comfortable with that.  Can I do the same for /public/files, or should it remain as 777?
