Redmine

This only occurs with One Project, another project with the same Module setting behaves correctly. I quickly tried to compare the Projects and the only difference I see so far is that the affected Project has commits of user in a remote SVN repository does not exist in the Redmine instance. This can happen in our setup as we use the Repository adapter in redmine to connect to remote repositories to "just" monitor the changesets and feed them into the Redmine activity line. But I dont know this is the root cause for this behavior.

We found another project (this time with a git repo) but also with users in the git does not match to Redmine users.

Given that, what you think about a way to mark not matched redmine users in the redmine UI with i.e. a different Color ?

BTW: the List of tabs will be corrected by clicking of the sidebar apply button while in the activity view. After that the List in the side bar ist correct as well. Clicking again of the Activity Tab the Menu and List is unfiltered again.

Hope this helps.

We need a way to reproduce, meaning here that you will have to try with a blank redmine and reproduce the problem. Seeing the number of plugins younhave, it could be anyone of them or a combination misbehaving.

Would be not so easy, as I'm currently just testing the Redmine provided to me.
But I'll try to manage that. I'm already had a look in the log file, but don't see any issues there.

Hi,

I haven't managed a clean Redmine yet. But I can confirm that the issue only occurs if the Repositry module is enabled.

With a user less Repository i.e. Type FileSystem, I have no issues either ...

So finally I can report the exact behavior ;-)

The Theme (and tabs) are not maintained because the activity view is somehow cached. A shift+reload of the activity URL fixes the problem of the tabs and Themes. It's reproducable for tabs and Themes.

looking in the logfile the activity controller returns a "304 Not Modified" for the affected projects.

a not affected project i.e. with just a filesystem repo or no repo returns a "200 OK"

Have removed all Plugins now. But I still get the "304 Not Modified" for the activity controller which leads to the described behavior. A shift reload with open activity URL fixes the view because of the client triggered reload.

May somebody can check the controller ?

Many Thanks.

Can you confirm if this happens on fresh install? (sorry if this has already been asked/answered) Can you also test this behavior against SQLite or MySQL?

Hi Felix, what ever fresh means ;-) I have removed all plugins from the ../vendor/plugins folder and made a svn update yesterday and run "Redmine 0.9.4.devel.3813 (PostgreSQL)" now. Currently I setup a new VM with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS to test a fresh install from scratch. While this I can tray to check the other databases as well.

Hi, just installed a clean redmine (trunk) with mySQL Database. have not seen the 304 mentioned above yet. Seems Activity tab work as expected. Will link redmine to a PostgresDB now.

Hi, I can confirm the given behaviour by Holger.
I'm using Redmine 0.9.5.devel (MySQL). (did do the checkout yesterday (2010-07-08))

I was testing redmine with several projects and can confirm that the only project that has this problem is the project with a defined repository.

I did only remark the theme changing problem. It's only after reading this bugreport, that I saw also the problem with the tabs.

I looked into the generated html page and independent of which theme was selected, the link tag is always :

<link href="/redmine/themes/alternate/stylesheets/application.css?1278516175" media="all" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

Something hardcoded, putted for testing and forgotten ;-)) ??

Maybe a hint where begin to search...

(I will not be able to respond to questions because my holidays (3 weeks) starts +- now :-) )

I can confirm the issue with a clean install of the latest trunk (mySQL)

It seems the activity controller returns a 304, therefore the browser is using the cached data. You can easilly see that
if you change the Theme. After changing a Theme the new theme is directly applied but if you click the activity tab you see
the page rendered with the previous theme.

If you SHIFT-Reload the activity URL the Theme gets updated.

BTW: the Issue Title does not reflect the behaviour any more. I think the Module settings are maintained but "just" the view
is outdated because of the 304 send to the browser. (can please anybody with the appropriate permission change the Title)

Thanks a lot,

Holger

One more, I still can confirm this only happens with a configured repository.

I installed the new fresh 1.0.0stable version. The fresh database was replaced by a backup of my existing database, database migrations where done.

The theme problem seems to be disappeared, but the tabs problem is still there.
And it only happens with a configured repository.

Hi,

I can confirm this issue with a totally fresh installation as well.
