Edited TEI is not saved in Tracker Capture version 2.30

Hi,

I am using Tracker Capture to track HIV services with DHIS 2 version 2.30. I edited some information on already saved TEI by clicking on Edit and changes the value of attribute. I saved TEI.

But I again opened that TEI and I see that the changes are not saved. Old value is showing there.

Please suggest.

Regards,
Pradeep

Hi there,
In a simple attempt at reproducing I tried opening an existing 2.30 person in play, and changing their tracked entity attribute values.

Can you reproduce in 2.30 play? Do you see any output in the browser console while saving the TEI?

Hi,

We have customized DHIS2 for our project and there we are facing this issue.

I see, it would be great if you can open the browsers javascript console and see what output you get there. Also, check the server log from the time when you are trying to save the TEI.

Did this snapshot come from when you clicked “save” in the tracked entity instance?

Yes

That was strange, there is no relevant error messages in the console. Can you also check the server log from the same period @Pradeep ?

@Markus, I am also facing this issue with 2.30. There are no messages in the browser console or in the log - the original names stubbornly remain in the Tracker Capture form after apparently successful editing. I have tried everything including rebooting.

We are about to upgrade - I hope this fixes it.

There are lots of errors in the PostgreSQL log however. Could this be related to my previous attempt to enable the audit log? Postgresql: "cannot execute nextval() in a read-only transaction" - #4 by prcleary

Solved most of this without upgrading (though I still will do soon). After setting up our case-based surveillance data collection I had directly deleted all dummy data values and references to them in the database. Or so I thought.

This error (and a similar one) in the PostgreSQL log seem to be the relevant ones:

 2019-11-16 01:29:43.042 UTC [55215] dhis@dhis2 ERROR:  update or delete on table "trackedentityinstance" violates foreign key constraint "fk_trackedentityprogramowner_trackedentityinstanceid" on table "trackedentityprogramowner"
2019-11-16 01:29:43.042 UTC [55215] dhis@dhis2 DETAIL:  Key (trackedentityinstanceid)=(11810740) is still referenced from table "trackedentityprogramowner".

Logging in to the database (sudo -u dhis psql dhis2 dhis) I ran the following for each of the offending IDs:

delete from trackedentityprogramowner where trackedentityinstanceid=11810740;

I then cleared the cache in the database, as per postgresql - See and clear Postgres caches/buffers? - Stack Overflow

sudo su
service postgresql stop
sync
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
service postgresql start
exit

Also cleared browser cache and ran maintenance and analytics. No errors in the PostgreSQL log now. Additional attributes of my TEI now show correctly (except for the field names, which remain as the old names, but I can live with this until the upgrade).
