Girder 5 Bug Thread

[Ron]

btw, maybe you can run grunt.exe instead for your day-to-day use. (it does not have much of a UI to avoid exactly these issues).

-will try.

Any update on that last reported crashing bug? I'm hitting the same thing. Grunt is an option but is not ideal for my use.

[Ron]

I'm preparing a new release that has all of it's dependencies updated including the library that was causing this crash. I'm hoping to release an Alpha of that soon keep you eye on the Girder 5 forums.

Ron,

Have been trying the latest V5 and the program hangs on two different machines. Using Global Cache commands, after a couple of commands Girder disables events (all by itself) and will not exit when I click "Exit Girder". The program becomes non-responsive and I must use task manager to kill it.

Using this script

 local x = win.ListNetworkInterfaces()
 for i, t in ipairs(x) do
     j = win.IsNetworkInterfaceConnected(t.Name)
     if j < 0 then s = "Disabled"
     elseif j > 0 then s = "Connected"
     else s = "Disconnected" end
     print(t.Description, s, win.GetIPInfo(i - 1))
 end

on a virtual machine with a bridged network connection
IPConfig results:

 
 Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
        Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . : local.lan
        IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.50.99

Script result;

 VMware Accelerated AMD PCNet Adapter (2) Connected 192.168.50.99 thijs-devsys

This is correct.

Keep Girder open, change connection, to NAT connection (disconnect, change to NAT, reconnect)
IPConfig results:

        Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . : localdomain

IP info changed, as expected

Script result;

 VMware Accelerated AMD PCNet Adapter (2) Connected 192.168.50.99 thijs-devsys

No update? keeps reporting old values.

Change connection, disconnect;
Script results:

 VMware Accelerated AMD PCNet Adapter (2) Disconnected 192.168.50.99 thijs-devsys

Connection state does get updated

Using Girder 5.0.14 (build 551)

Function win.IsNetworkInterfaceConnected() does work as expected, but function win.GetIPInfo() does not refresh its results.


I'm trying to detect changes in network connection state, but this is the reason I can't get it to work...

[Tieske8]

Any update on this? I'm looking into detecting network disconnects and could use this, when its working...

[Tieske8]

This code;

ComponentManager:Print()

results in this error;

Component:  ConfigFiles

minor thingy;

Please change line 4677 of 'C:\Program Files\Promixis\Girder5\plugins\treescript\Device Manager UI.lua' from:

 
Controls.tranport.Caption = 'No transport control'

To:

 
Controls.transport.Caption = 'No transport control'

Thanks! Fix applied to Girder 5.1
