Problem with dayfile editor

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Problem with dayfile editor

Post by OBSERWACJEMETEO »

Hello,
When I try to save changes in the dayfile editor, I get a message

Code: Select all

DataTables warning: table id=dayfile - Requested unknown parameter '0' for row 5, column 0. For more information about this error, please see http://datatables.net/tn/4
Attached is a screen shot. Does this problem occurs only with me or someone has met with a similar probem?

Are you using v3.23.1?
Could you scroll up the edit dialog and show the top of it?

This is going to be tricky! :(

Could you confirm...

1. All the /interface files from the b3221 zip file have been copied to your CMX folder.
2. If you open the page in an Incognito/InPrivate window in your browser you get the same error

I downloaded the latest version of cumulus today and uploaded all the files from scratch. I re-uploaded the data files. And I still have a problem when editing daily entries. I am guessing that this problem occurs only with me. Opening in private mode also causes an error. :D

to check your file run the hash checker against your cmx install

Code: Select all

# Checking CumulusMX file integrity on Linux
# go to your installation directory (eg. /opt/CumulusMX/)
# and run the following command (add --quiet to end of line if only want to see errors):
# ---------------------------------------------------
#  md5sum --check hash_md5_3221.txt
# ----------------------------------------------------
#
# Checking file integrity on Windows
# Start a PowerShell session
# go to your installation folder (eg. cd C:\CumulusMX)
# and run the following command:
# ---------------------------------------------------
#  .\MXutils\windows\CheckMD5HashFile.ps1 -HashFile .\hash_md5_3221.txt
# ---------------------------------------------------

I have CMX on Windows 10. Can I run this script on Windows 10?

Yes, look at the last few lines quoted
# Checking file integrity on Windows
# Start a PowerShell session
# go to your installation folder (eg. cd C:\CumulusMX)
# and run the following command:
# ---------------------------------------------------
# .\MXutils\windows\CheckMD5HashFile.ps1 -HashFile .\hash_md5_3221.txt
# ---------------------------------------------------
and run this in a DOS command window.

Not in a DOS window, but in a Powershell window. You might also encounter a problem that an execution policy blocks running the script since it does not have a digital signature. This can be overridden by opening powershell originally with the following command line (use win+r -shortcut key to open run dialog)

PowerShell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass

Then go to the CMX folder by typing

cd C:\CumulusMX\

and then run the check with

.\MXutils\windows\CheckMD5HashFile.ps1 -HashFile .\hash_md5_3221.txt

Note the period at start of the line. If you have installed cmx somewhere else, then you have to adjust the path of the cd command.
