My favorite bug was a complex transaction with a few cases were we would abort the transaction. And in one spot the "abort" was missing and there was just a "procedure_return" jumping out of the...

We use DataFlex Reports 7.0 and start implementing QR codes. How can I change the quality/error code/error correction of the generated QR code?

We started to use sidebars in our WebApps.
The idea is to provide a user with information or access to functionalities, which are not specific to one view, but span different views.

If you encrypt the "secret", you need another secret for this encryption. There is not much that you can do about that ;) The easiest way is not to compile secrets into your application, but find a...

Thanks for the help. I used Michael Mullans code (with a few changes), and it works fine.

It would be nice to have this functionality built-in in the official class, but I guess there are too many...

We have a WebApp with a few reports. They work fine when used on the development machine, but can't connect to the SQL server when run on the webserver.

For development we use an SQL server on...

Alright. We figured it out.

It was a small problem, with an easy fix:
The WebApp we tried to create was in a virtual directory inside an DataFlex Content Manager website. The DFCM had "user...

Okay, good news (sort of):
I installed a new VM with a blank Windows Server 2008 R2.
I installed DF19.1 and everything works, the examples, our webapp, the file upload, the download, ... everything...

Yes, the folders are properly registered.

Nah, 2008 R2 is not supported, neither by DataFlex officially, nor by Microsoft. It's not my choice to use it ;)

I'll give the C++ runtime a shot as well...

The workspace itself works fine on our Windows 2012 test machine. I'm trying to install the example webapps now.

The entry is present, the user of the app pool has the proper permissions to access the files. The name of the dataflex application in the web.config matches the one in the webapp admin

ASP works, but 19.1 does not use ASP anymore for uploading files.

I can log into the web application. Everything except the file- up and download works.

The modules seem to be there:
13476

Yes, we do. We plan to upgrade "soon".

The IIS user does have read/write access to the folder, although I'm not sure that's still necessary for 19.1 (thanks to the new Http request handlers)

A bit more details:

The webapp itself works fine, but as soon as you try to up- or download a file we get a 403 error:



A bit more investigation suggested that the request does not reach...

It Depends if you use the Touch/Mobile or Desktop style.
The AllowAccess-Function is a good point for checks. (at least in desktop style apps, almost every call to the view checks "AllowAccess"...

I wrote a small "Tamper Monkey" or "Grease Monkey Script" which traverses the whole oWebApp-JavaScript-Object-Tree and enables and shows everything.

Use normal button or something else with an onClick-event and then use the "NavigateToPage"-Function.

Example:

You're welcome

I forgot to migrate one of the websites to the new server. It's up and running again :-)

I just noticed we also found spaces in places where only the DDs were used to create records (but DF seems to trim them in most places, so most people probably won't notice)

Give the following URL a try: https://www.dataaccess.com/webservicesserver/numberconversion.wso?WSDL

The server sets: Cache-Control: private, max-age=0
Which should prevent caching

Calling "Send destroy of ..." and creating a new object should do the trick as well, right? The interesting part (for me) is that the http-request is only made once, until I restart the application,...
