Tracker Capture feature has not appear program

Dear Sir/Madame,

I am new DHIS2. I am not able to create data entry form through Tracker Capture.

My work flow (DHIS2.25):

  1. create data element
    ![image
  2. create Tracked
  3. create Tracke entity

Based on work flow above: Why doesn’t Tracker Capture list the program ?

Thanks for technical support

Best Regards,

Hey there @LCaynar!
Making changes to user authorities and program metadata, you would have to log out and in with the user in question. Also, you should open the cache cleaner app and clean the cache so that you are looking at the latest version of all your program configurations when you log in.

From the opening remark I understood that you where on DHIS2 version 2.25 - but I assume from the screenshots that you are using DHIS2 version 2.29 or later. Please check which version of DHIS2 you are suing by clicking the “About DHIS2” option of the profile menu in the top right of the screen when logged in.
If you are on 2.29 or later you need to share the program and program stages with the user groups that is going to have access, and your user needs to be member of the group that the program and program stage is shared with. You can read about data sharing levels here: Home - DHIS2 Documentation

Second, I started to explore with version 2.25; The work flow is quite similar screenshot . Thereafter with work flow with version 2.25, To have faced the same issue. later on, I done clear cache on Clear cache feature and as well on browser (Chrome). Finally, to have faced this issue.

Any advice for resolving this issues.

Thanks @LCaynar!
Verison 2.30 is more feature rich and will be better supported going forward. Is there any way you could reconcider using 2.30? I did not catch the entire reason for why you chose to go for 2.25.

To solve the problem we would need to choose a version to work with first. Based on your reply we can troubleshoot the version you choose. The problems are not likely to be the same. In 2.30 you would have had to make a user group for your program and share the program with that group.

Thank you for the detailed explanation. Can you clear the browsers cached files and also use the cache cleaner app to empty local storage, and then perform the two failing steps again?

Dear @LCaynar,
Thank you for the detailed explanation. We have a theory on what can be the problem, and in that case a fix is close. Do you run the server on Windows? Can you open the developer console and screenshot any errors you see there?

Hi there, this is a problem due to newer Tomcat deeming some characters invalid in requests. The solution at the moment is to configure tomcat to allow brackets in URL. We are fixing the underlying problem in 2.32.

The server config solution is mentioned in this thread:

Dear @LCaynar
There is also a secondary problem that you might face since you run the web server on Windows. We are in the process of fixing that right now, so be warned if after the config update you see a different error in the console and in the logs.

Dear @Markus,

Therefore I need to wait the version2.32?

Dear @LCaynar
No, staying on 2.30 - you first have to update the config according to the linked thread above.

Then, we suspect you will see another issue, and we are working on fixing and backporting to 2.30 - either today or tomorrow that will be resolved.

Dear @LCaynar, thank you for letting me know.
To be able to resolve the first problem, you will have to make a configuration change to tomcat. The necessary changes is described in this thread on stack exchange:

I hope the thread helps you, but dont hesitate to ask any followup questions.
