At 06:57 a first user started working. This causes Lino to generate lino_210_de.js. At 07:56 the second user connects, she has another user_type, so Lino generates lino_410_de.js. And then, 10 minutes later, we get a traceback.

Here is the complete apache error.log:

12.34.56.78 - claudia [24/Jul/2020:08:07:05 +0200] “GET /choices/notes/NotesByX/event_type?_dc=1595570823736&start=0&limit=20&query= HTTP/1.1” 200 728 “http://lino.example.com/” “Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0”

How to reproduce the problem: start runserver in the lino_welfare.projects.gerd demo project, sign in as robin, open the detail window of any client. Select the History tab. Klick (+) in the “Notes” panel. In the insert window, open the combobox of the event_type field (the first one). Result : the terminal shows an error message (but for the user everything works).

It is because the insert_layout here is defined on NotesByX. And a Combobox field uses the name of its defining actor (not the one it is actually being used on) for requesting its choices. And this even works because even an abstract actor knows its fields and can find the right chooser. The problem was that recently we made the choices view create an action request, and an action request then wants the actor’s handle as well. New rule: Lino now supports action requests on abstract actors, but these don’t have an ah attribute.

“Tried to get static handle for debts.PrintEntriesByBudget”

The React front end front end does not yet support dynamic actor handles. This is a missing feature, which is used only in lino_welfare.modlib.debts. Reproducible by switching the default_ui to react in the lino_welfare.projects.gerd demo project:

Optimizations for dealing with checkdata messages

  • When the end user deletes the object referred to by a checkdata problem message, that message should automatically get deleted.

  • The confirmation message when deleting a record now has an additional text “as well as related volatile records (x Data problem messages)”.

  • street_prefix should also be considered an address field to be synchronized with the owner of an addresses.Address

I had the idea to add a lino.modlib.checkdata.Messages filter parameter show_fixable. But that turns out to be non-trivial because a

TODO:

  • DetailLayout of Household should show the address

  • Remove region field from PartnerDetail
