Bug in 2.18 data entry?

Olav · 28 April 2015 14:50

Hi, I’m experiencing a strange problem after upgrading from 2.16 to 2.18 (through 2.17): for certain datasets, regular users do not see existing data in the data entry screen (and in some cases no form either, but not sure if the two issues are related). For superusers, there is no problem.

I’ve tried to open the getDataValues URL with a “data entry user” account to see if I could see the raw values, but it is emtpy (like this: …/dhis/dhis-web-dataentry/getDataValues.action?periodId=201503&dataSetId=SVxIdNuoFxg&organisationUnitId=vrV9Pt3ByZQ&multiOrganisationUnit=false). However, when I do this I see this following in the tomcat log, where the key part seems to be “data set: null”:

WARN 2015-04-28 14:42:21,638 Illegal input, org unit: [IdentifiableObject: id=‘11363’, uid=‘vrV9Pt3ByZQ’, code=‘null’, name=‘CSPS Boundoré’, created=‘2012-07-11 17:27:02.358’, lastUpdated=‘2014-02-19 10:50:26.545’, class=‘class org.hisp.dhis.organisationunit.OrganisationUnit"’], period: [Monthly: Sun Mar 01 00:00:00 UTC 2015 - Tue Mar 31 00:00:00 UTC 2015], data set: null (GetDataValuesForDataSetAction.java [tomcat-http-54])

Opening the exact same URL with a superuser account gives the existing values as expected, and no error in the tomcat log.

Some additional info on the datasets causing problems:

sharing is not used, i.e. public: read and write
approval is not enabled
expiry/locking is not enabled
the users roles all have see data entry module, add data value, delete data value and have the dataset assigned.

Any ideas? The issue was not picked up when testing 2.18, so it is happening on a production database - a quick response would be appreciated!

Thanks

Hi,
thanks for the suggestion. I did that now (and cleared both nginx and browser caches), but I still have the same problem.

Hi Olav,

I saw something like this happen recently as well, updating to the latest 2.18 resolved the problem.

Thanks,

Hi Olav,

can you check if you have set “sharing” to this specific data set to non-public? I.e. to “public access” = “none”. It might be that the current user cannot access the data set.

Hi, thanks, sharing is set to public for the datasets in question (and all the others), so I don’t think that is the issue.

I actually see now that the form is now not loading at all for the regular user (it is not just the existing data values), but works fine for the superuser - both after clearing cache.

Did anyone get a solution for this? The same is happening with us with data entry level users but working for the Superuser.

The form is not loading at all like Olav said.
