http://www-int.stsci.edu/~bsimon/weblog.cgi The work log of Bernie Simon en http://www-int.stsci.edu/~bsimon/weblog.cgi/post/281062100800.html <p> I spent the morning working the problem with the leave script. It turned out to be a problem with pointer aliasing. (Not just for C any more!) I was using the same "empty record" for each record not currently in the database and the record was overwritten with the info from the latest new record. This gave me N duplicate reords in the array, which was really just N pointers to the same record. I resolved the problem by creating a new empty record when needed. </p> http://www-int.stsci.edu/~bsimon/weblog.cgi/post/271062014400.html <p> In the morning I replace the truncate table in the leave script with a delete. Then I tested Harry's modifications to the LDAP manager. They worked correctly. In the afternoon I retested the leave script. It failed to update the database and said there were duplicate records. I'm still tracking down the source of the duplicates. </p> http://www-int.stsci.edu/~bsimon/weblog.cgi/post/261061928000.html <p> I revised the leave script to make some parameters settable from the command line. It turned out this feature isn't needed at present, but I left it in. I think I've figured out how to modify the news scripts to support a priority field, but I haven't mad the change yet. </p> http://www-int.stsci.edu/~bsimon/weblog.cgi/post/251061841600.html <p> Most of the day was spent sitting with Greg taking notes on how to fix problems with Remedy. I also looked at the additems/edititems code. </p> http://www-int.stsci.edu/~bsimon/weblog.cgi/post/221061582400.html <p> I submitted a call about making Mozilla 1.4 the default browser and looked at the news/calendar code to see how the entry form should be modified. </p> http://www-int.stsci.edu/~bsimon/weblog.cgi/post/211061496000.html <p> I investigated the problem with the Remedy interface further and submitted a call. Harry said he couldn't duplicate one of the problems I reported with the LDAP manager. I did some more tests and reported back to him. </p> http://www-int.stsci.edu/~bsimon/weblog.cgi/post/201061409600.html <p> I spent all day in sensitivity training. </p> http://www-int.stsci.edu/~bsimon/weblog.cgi/post/191061323200.html <p> I spent most the day testing Harry's latest revision of the LDAP manager. I told him about the problems I found. I also looked at Phil Hodge's problem with the web interface to remedy. It doesn't display the submit button in some cases. </p> http://www-int.stsci.edu/~bsimon/weblog.cgi/post/181061236800.html <p> In the morning I worked on John's priority fix for News. I got the localNews change working and stopped there. The I looked at all the calls in the test queue that were stalled and resubmitted the ones that had been lost in the transition to the web farm. </p> http://www-int.stsci.edu/~bsimon/weblog.cgi/post/141060891200.html <p> I finally got sorting search results to work. </p>
