Bonus TIPS for Successful Posting

Try a Search First
It is highly recommended that a Search be done on your topic before posting, as many questions have been answered in prior posts. As with any search engine, the shorter the search term, the more "hits" will be returned, but the more specific the search term is, the greater the relevance of those "hits". Searching for "table" might well return every message on the board while "tablesum" would greatly restrict the number of messages returned.

When you do post
First, make sure you are posting your question in the correct forum. For example, if you post an issue regarding Desktop applications on the Mobile & Browser Applications board , not only will your question not be seen by the appropriate audience, it may also be removed or relocated.

The more detail you provide about your problem or question, the more likely someone is to understand your request and be able to help. A sample database with a minimum of records (and its support files, zipped together) will make it much easier to diagnose issues with your application. Screen shots of error messages are especially helpful.

When explaining how to reproduce your problem, please be as detailed as possible. Describe every step, click-by-click and keypress-by-keypress. Otherwise when others try to duplicate your problem, they may do something slightly different and end up with different results.

A note about attachments
You may only attach one file to each message. Attachment file size is limited to 2MB. If you need to include several files, you may do so by zipping them into a single archive.

If you forgot to attach your files to your post, please do NOT create a new thread. Instead, reply to your original message and attach the file there.

When attaching screen shots, it is best to attach an image file (.BMP, .JPG, .GIF, .PNG, etc.) or a zip file of several images, as opposed to a Word document containing the screen shots. Because Word documents are prone to viruses, many message board users will not open your Word file, therefore limiting their ability to help you.

Similarly, if you are uploading a zipped archive, you should simply create a .ZIP file and not a self-extracting .EXE as many users will not run your EXE file.

      Re: update build 3381_4096

      Hmmmm .... I've been reading all this and rather nervous about updating from build 3044. I have an issue with the Submit button (set to "Save Submitted Data to Tables", which I am informed is corrected with the new release. Being new to all this, I'm reluctant to proceed if there is an earlier rebuild that is proven and also corrects the problem I have. Can anyone tell me if this is so??

      Also, in the Release notes this important note:
      VERY IMPORTANT: Before using this upgrade you must publish as least one page or component to your server (does not matter which one). This will cause a new version of the __a5RunGrid.a5w and __a5RunReport.a5w system pages to get published. If you do not publish at least one file, your app will still be using an old version of these system file and it will fail. (You do not need to republish your entire application).
      What does this mean? Does it apply to Local host and external server, one / other / both? As I said - Nervous!!

Before turning off component security altogether I just tried setting one of the components (for a test) to Always Allowed, but that didn't do any good. Instead I had to completely turn off component security in the Web Security Configuration.

        I can dig further, but this appears to be the culprit and wanted to check to see if anyone can confirm.
        I have component security enabled and have updated to build 3381_4096. The only issue I have is that it seems like I have to save one of my grids a couple of times after editing before the changes show up after publishing. It may be a cache issue though.

          Re: update build 3381_4096

          After a careful review of my grid "StudentsSessionsGrid" security, I noticed the following:
          1. The security for the grid, did not include the group of the users which are mostly logged into the system.
          2. The grid was being shown linked to another grid and in the linked security did not included any security groups, so now I defined the security groups the same as the grid itself.

          I am currently waiting for users to log off so I can update the system and see if this error goes away. The weird thing is that I never got this error with previous version, so go figure

          Will post results after update and seeing some log entries tomorrow morning, well, actually in a couple of hours

              Today I started getting this 403 error on a Row expander linked control. Security for any of these control has not changed, so this must definitely be something else, I will submit a bug report..

                    Hi All,

                    The fix to the 403 permission error is pretty simple. I got a fast response from A5 support and here is the quote for this fix:
                    The problem is caused by having the Component Security enabled, but the option to always enforce security at the component level is not checked.

                    We recommend that Always enforce security at the component level is also selected. If you activate the option, the problem should go away
                    See image attached.

                      Unfortunately for me, I already had security with those options selected. Something else is going on.

                        Peter,
                        If you tried again and published all files and those options are checked, then I would suggest you open a bug report and be sure to include all the server logs, specially the http raw log and the Pages.SecuritySettings file which should be in your server's root folder.

                          These option have always been enabled. But yes, when I have time i will do that.
                          Thanks

                              Oops! I totally screwed up yesterday when updating the patch. It's all working fine now. I updated to today's patch which is labeled Build 3393-4098 26-Mar-2103 9:28 AM, but in reality is 3396-4099 - or at least that's what it was an hour or two ago.

                                I'm also getting the 403 Security Error after doing the single page published per the service pack release notes. The release notes say the reason for the publish it to get the update files "__a5RunGrid.a5w" and "__a5RunReport.a5w" on the server. I restored my website files to their status before the single page publish then just copied the two .a5w files to the server. I no longer get the 403 errors and my brief testing looks good. I don't know if this approach is recommended but thought it might be helpful information.
