I am working on a Crystal Reports report in the branch of a project. The parameters have not changed, ondly the internal report definition. I would like to push just the new report file to IAM at the customers site for testing. I have put this report in a separate module to be able to generate a deployment package for just this report and its dependencies. The deployment package is created for the branch project, but at the customer site I only have the trunk available. I am not sure either whether the altered report file is included. There is a line of some 6 million hexadecimal characters under ‘exect sync_report’, that could include the report file (it's less than half a megabyte in size). I know I could ask the testers to drop the altered version of the rpt-file in their cache folder, but that can only go wrong in the long (if not short) run. What is the easiest way to offer testers at the clients site an updated version of the report, that does not involve merging the branch and s
We run the software factory Web GUI on Azure Web App. Recently we scaled the App Service plan to an instance with 8 GB to address high memory usage issues.The Web App platform is still configured as 32 bit.Is there any need or advantage to switch the Web App platform to 64 bit for the Web GUI?
I ran into a problem uploading files with the web GUI (2020.2.20 and earlier as well).To explain the problem let’s say that we want to upload a document with the filename Test.txt (content: This is version 1). The destination of the uploaded file is the file system. The document is also registered in the table bijlage (column: bijlage, domain: bestand_link, control: file link).Uploading the document for the first time is successful. No problems here.But now the user has created an updated version of the file with the filename Test.txt (content: This is version 2). Het decides to delete the previous record from the table bijlage and creates a new record and uploads the updated file Test.txt again.Because the original file was not deleted from the web server, the upload results in a filename with an adjusted filename: Test_1.txt. The strange thing is, that the upload control still shows the original filename Test.txt and shows the wrong content. Of course I could delete the file from th
Does anyone know why some items of the menu don’t show up in the universal GUI? In the settings I selected the windows platform so I expect exact the same menu as in the Windows GUI. And parts of it are exact the same but some items are missing?? This is the WINDOWS GUI menu In the Universal GUI the sybjects Relaties, contactpersonen en concers are missing?
Hi all,I'm using the ReportingService a lot. Based on this article. All is fine and dandy. However, in the .rdl (report builder) files I get some images from a table. The end-user can set a company logo for instance, which appears on the invoice. However, when I generate this report with the reportingservice, the transparancy is not respected. The reports work fine (with transparancy) in Report Builder. Any one any thoughts on this? Or how this can be fixed?Much appreciated,Alex
With the update to the latest version of SF we had an issue with icons missing in the web gui. We fixed this on our own local server by setting, which is needed in the latest SF version. Advice given by Thinkwise:To do this, 'load user profile' must be enabled on the application pool. This ensures that a C: \ Users \ {pool user} \ directory is available, and other things that are not normally created for an application pool identity.It is indeed a recent change, of which I have not yet found the specific documentation. 'load user profile' is already advised to enable, 'Right click on your Application Pool, open the Advanced Settings and make sure that the correct Identity is set. Note that Load User Profile should also be set to True. 'This works fine. HOWEVER, We are not certain IF (and is yes, HOW) this can be set on our Azure deployment. Anyone thoughts on this? We must set this before we deploy. I can’t just trial and error it, since we do not have an up and running Azure deployme
This is what happens in Chrome and Edge Is it an idea to right-align the buttons? Or to have that option?
I always thought that there could be one template to a control procedure, but just saw that it actually is possible to have more than one template to a control procedure.Hope that someone tell me why they use multiple templates within the same control procedure. I'd like to know the advantages of using multiple templates.
Since some versions we have a problem with the Universal GUI after updating. The setting "requestFiltering removeServerHeader = true" in the web.config file causes a 500.19 HTTP error when starting the Universal GUI.If we remove the lines below from web.config, the problem is gone. <security> <requestFiltering removeServerHeader = "true" /> </security> The problem is also present with the most recent update.
After updating to SF 2021.1 I get an error message when I want to print a report.The error message:Kan bestand of assembly CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine, Version=13.0.3500.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304 of een van de afhankelijkheden hiervan niet laden. Het systeem kan het opgegeven bestand niet vinden.I have upgraded to CR 2020 and I have uploaded the reports into the SF. The path to the reports on disk is also still effective.What do I wrong? Can anybody help?
I’ve deleted a table and when I run the validations again I got the following validations:Deleting for the role is allowed while deleting in the table (variant) is not allowed Adding for the role is allowed while deleting in the table (variant) is not allowed Updating for the role is allowed while deleting in the table (variant) is not allowedThe table is gone but when I examinate one of the validation query's it seems there is still data present in the table role_tab, linked to the table I just removed.I cannot find the deleted table under Access control, so what is the best way to deal with those validation messages? Approving it is probably possible, but there is still data present in role_tab, which for me doesn't look OK.
I have a little C# executable to be able to print Brother labels. I use a task (type windows command) with parameters to execute it. This works fine if I use a fixed object name for the task. But now I want to be able to execute the C# executable based on the environment (DTAP). I tried this using an object name [task_name] filled as parameter in the default procedure.This works if I only fill the path to the C# executable, but the other parameters are ignored (as described in the documentation). If I also add the values of other parameters to the object name parameter [task_name], I get the message ‘The system cannot find specified file’. If I use the same command string in Windows Command, it works as expected. How could I achieve this in the SF?Could the environment automatically be replaced base on an environment variable (%environment%)? Are there better ways to solve this DTAP issues with external objects?
I want to add SVG icons to our application in the Universal GUI. When saving and thus creating a SVG icon by myself using Photoshop and Illustrator, the image doesn’t seem to change from black to white when changing to dark mode. Are there specific settings that need to be set for creating a SVG which does change color from black to white?
In Thinkwise Docs 2021.1 => User Interface => Screen Types → Tab container → it says: " By setting up a tab control for a component tab, ”. My question is: "Where can this be done”
In an effort to make deployment easier for everyone, we've updated the license mechanism in the Thinkwise Platform. Downloading and importing a license will be a thing of the past as of version 2020.2. As mentioned before, Indicium Universal will be a mandatory component in any environment. Not only to be able to use Universal, Scheduling and AutoML, but also for the automatic license renewal mechanism. Indicium Universal will automatically renew licenses for environments without the need for any user interaction. Furthermore, the innovation fee report in IAM has been removed from the Intelligent Application Manager - the contents of this report will be exchanged when renewing the license. The expression environment will be used a lot in this blog. This expression is used to denote an Intelligent Application Manager with the applications present in this IAM and all runtime components attached, such as Indicium Universal, GUI's, etc. Unregistered environments By default, all envir
Does anyone know a good method for checking case sensitive user input using the control forms? I would like to use Control forms to validate whether a user has entered at least one uppercase and one lowercase character, this is for validating password requirements. By default SQL is case-insensitive. A common workaround is using: COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS I have tried to implement this but it does not seem to be working. Am I doing something wrong? Or is there another method available for implementing case sensitive comparisons? My implementation
How come I get a 500 error? I want to install Indicium Universal, because I want to use the process flow scheduler functionality. How is the configuration different from the installation of the 'old' Indicium? How do I know that the correct version of .NET Core Windows Hosting Runtime is running?
When I log in on the Community, the same credentials are used as I should log on in TCP. The same for the e-Learning environment. This is done using OpenID / Single Sign On. https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/iam/openid.html#docsNavThe documentation is a bit short about this subject. Is it possible, and how should it be configured in IAM?I would like to place our documentation behind a log in page using the same credentials needed for the webgui.
I found this button, “Convert runtime configuration” (the little exit-icon in the screenshot, left of the trash can), in the 2020.2 SF. What does it do? I fed it an ini-file, as a reply I got “The ini file does not contain a project id.”, which is true.
Hello, I can;t find the Indicium 2021.1 Versions on the TCP.Both Universal and Basic.Will 2020.2 still work, or do we have to wait?
I want to start with SF 2021.1 and see if I can upgrade an existing application.If it works the same way as with version 2020.2, it will be fine.However, what strikes me is that the WinGUI and WebGUI 2021.1.XX is missing in the installation package.Is it coming soon, or can it continue to use the 2020.2 version of the GUI'ss for the time being?
I have run the deployment suite for upgrading to 2021.1. I only had to remove a database role by hand, because that gave an error message. But after that, the deployment suite was run completely without any problems. I run the marked issues from the deployment suite and marked it that we do NOT use Indicium:When I start the shortcut I only see an IAM application, but no SF. I get the following error mesages:“Your license has expired. Please contact your system administrator or Thinkwise.”And after that I get the message:“This environment is not registered. Applications are not available because of this.Please register the environment using the menu item 'Register environment' under 'Settings'.”But when I chose to do so, I get the message:“Environment registration requires Indicium to be active. Verify that Indicium is running correctly on this IAM.”But as said earlier: I (and my customers) don't work with Indicium.Can someone help?

In earlier releases of the WebGUI I was able to change the BrowserIcon by simply replacing the favicon.ico file in the images folder. For some reason this is not working anymore. What is the right way to let it work? The documentation is not very clear on this.
Since Software Factory 2020.2 All images are stored in the database. Also the IAM Global Settings has an option for an Application icon and the Application has an option for an icon. Is this icon also used as favicon for the Web GUI?Is it possible to have the favicon served from the database?I tried this, but without any luck so far.
