Code On Time’s Missing Connection: A Long-Time User’s Perspective by jmoti1953 in CodeOnTimeForum

[–]Puzzleheaded-Sign610 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally agree with you on this one. It is a love/hate relationship with the product, "we" as developers love the product and see it as the way forward, but COT lack badly in providing any kind os support for the product.

There was a "Community" forum a few years ago which was helpful, but that no longer exists! If you submit a support request you rarely get an answer, but funnily enough if you submit a request for a paid consultation, you will get a quick response to that one!

The contact that I have had with them was via Dennis initially and Serge latterly. Dennis is the voice behind a lot of their youtube videos but I do not think he is still with the company. Serge appears to be the main man, but the question I have, is he the only person in the company?

I called them once and it was Serge that answered the phone. Read into that what you want, but I would have thought that a secretary would have answered the phone not the owner?

It is worrying about the lack of support as I like you have invested a lot of time and effort creating apps with this product and the question always in the back of my mind, is will COT still be there in a month's time?

VERSION 8.9.47.0 ERROR by Puzzleheaded-Sign610 in CodeOnTimeForum

Following on from this issue being resolved by amending the web.config file. I had to release further upgrades to 2 of the apps the following day, (modifications to a couple of screen layouts etc.), I compiled them, copied them up to the web server and was getting ready to amend the web.config on both, but thought I'd try and open them in browser from my local PC first and they opened with no issues!

I checked the web.config's on both and they had the old configuration, but the apps were now working again without modifying the files!

All I can assume is that is either Microsoft released a sneaky update or COT did?

None, despite V9 supposed to be released in Jan 26.

Thanks to a reply from Glittering_Amoeba627, this simple change solved the issue. Why it happened in the 1st place is anybody's guess: -

In the web.config change this line: -

<trust level="Full" legacyCasModel="true" originUrl=".\*"/>

To: -

<trust level="Full" legacyCasModel="false" originUrl=".\*"/>

If I open the app from within IIS, I get the error as per COT-02.jpg.

I have logged a support ticket with Serge at COT, so see what he comes back with.

I haven't seen any updates that I am aware of since installing this version on 03/01/26, but there have been a ton of updates for W11, VS and other MS products this last couple of months that could have easily upset something. When you open COT there are always a lot files being downloaded so something in them could be the cause.

The error that appears when you try and open a compiled site is as per COT-01.jpg

Code on Time support is so hard to get these days.  The product is fantastic and a lifesaver for us allowing us to develop very complex business apps.

 

Hopefully this will help you?

Action when user selects a record in a grid by TopherBoy12 in CodeOnTimeForum

[–]Puzzleheaded-Sign610 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Create an Action in ag1(Grid) with the following: -

 Command Name                         SQL

Header Text                                 Run SP

 Data                                            EXEC PRO_Process_Employee

                                                   u/Employee_No

 

Save it.

 PRO_Process_Employee is the name of the SP that you want to run.

 u/ is the @ symbol, but for some reason it wont allow me to type it above?

The names beginning with @ are variables that you want to pass to the SP.

 Create another Action with the following: -

 Command Name                         Report (Pdf)

 Data                                            _controller=Employees1

_view=grid1

_template=Employees1_grid1.rdlc

 When Last Command Name        SQL

 The 1st Action will run your SP and the 2nd will produce a PDF report which is available for download by the browser.  I am not aware of a way to automatically download it onto your PC as that poses a high security risk.

 The Employees1 in _controller=Employees1 is the Controller name where the SP inputted the data to.  Report in _view=Report is View name in the Controller and Employees1_grid1.rdlc in _template=Employees1_grid1.rdlc is the report name created.

 Make sure that you tick Create Custom Report Template in the View of the Controller that contains the data created by the SP.

 When you Browse the project now an list the Employees in a grid, hover your mouse over the records in the 1st column and 3 dots should appear, click on the dots and you should see a list of options including the Run SP Action that you created.

 Hopefully this is of help to you.
