Hello @riwaj.amakomaya
Lets see how we can workout this one. Open console and or network to see whats preventing the "checking expression status to go away.

Are you able to check why the program rule is responding with 500. I think its a permission issue. Verify the permissions, insure that the program rule you are trying to edit or required by your application have the correct permissions for the server to access and execute them. Do you have access the server side logs, this will help give a clear and concise error.

@riwaj.amakomaya the Program Rule Variable that was incorrected declared, was it used in program rule expression ?

Hi @riwaj.amakomaya, I’m currently experiencing a similar issue. What did you mean by “The problem was incorrect declaration of variable”, and what was the solution?

@Joycee when we enter wrong expression or there is incorrect declaration of variable, it gets stuck. Another reason may be the software issue, if there is some issue on the program or the program is not functioning correctly. Mine was both, the program issue was there so it got stuck on the “Checking expression” when I entered wrong expression.

Thanks,
Riwaj

I am having this issue too now on 2.37.9.1. It is only for one tracker program and it means that I cannot edit existing rules or create new ones. It just says “checking expression” forever every time, even if the expression is blank or definitely valid. For all other tracker programs, when I create a new rule, it works fine (evaluates it as valid or invalid).

Anyone have any ideas why an entire tracker program might get stuck on program rules? Thanks!

Hi Natalie,

Did you check that all the program rules in the tracker program are valid and working?

My other question is if you tried using Guest mode in your browser ( Browse Chrome as a guest - Computer - Google Chrome Help) And also using a super user with ALL authority? Check if it’s still an issue when using both (Guest mode + ALL authority user), please report back. What issues do you see in the console and Network tab that are not happening when creating a program rule for the other programs?

Thanks!

@riwaj.amakomaya What do you by incorrect declation of variable? What was incorrect about the declaration and how did you identify the actual variable? I am currently experiencing the same issue.

Hi @WaluQ !

Have you found a solution to this? You need to check the variables in your expression, are you selecting valid variables? You’d need to check the metadata and compare the ids.

Ohh yes, I read a comment from @riwaj.amakomaya about incorrect variable, I checked through the database for any abnormalities and found a program variable without a data element. After fixing that one, this issue was resolved.
