Cannot register displays in 1.2.1 server while installed 1.2.1 client however the client about shows 1.2.0

What message do you get on the client when you click Register?

There is a problem with the DisplayGroupAuth function. Instead of calling display.licensed=0 to see all displays, it is only requesting licensed displays.

----------------------------------
SELECT DISTINCT displaygroup.DisplayGroupID, displaygroup.DisplayGroup, IsDisplaySpecific FROM displaygroup INNER JOIN lkdisplaydg ON displaygroup.DisplayGroupID = lkdisplaydg.DisplayGroupID INNER JOIN display ON display.DisplayID = lkdisplaydg.DisplayID WHERE display.licensed = 1

Weird. I'm seeing unlicensed displays on our 1.2.1 test installation. I'll
have a better look tomorrow.

Thanks Alex. It seems that in /modules/module_user_general.php Line 724 requested a specific filter in the query which is restricting the results. New displays awaiting approval of license do not show. Updating the display.licensing to 1 via MySQL shows that the display is there.

For now I have commented out Line 724: // $SQL .= " WHERE display.licensed = 1 ";
------------------------
  // If the usertype is not 1 (admin) then we need to include the link table for display groups.
  if ($usertype != 1)
  {
   $SQL .= " INNER JOIN lkgroupdg ON lkgroupdg.DisplayGroupID = displaygroup.DisplayGroupID ";
   $SQL .= " INNER JOIN lkusergroup ON lkgroupdg.GroupID = lkusergroup.GroupID ";
                }

              $SQL .= " WHERE display.licensed = 1 ";

                if ($usertype != 1)
                {
                    $SQL .= sprintf(" AND lkusergroup.UserID = %d ", $userid);

                }

I saw a lot of posts on the topic and am not yet into those, but it does say it is registered and waiting for approval. But also, after I installed the client 1.2.1, it showed the settings of the one I deinstalled. The first time I installed the 1.2.1 package already showed the server paths as they had to be.
Now I am quite new to windows, but what I do is add/remove programs then choose Xibo player. Then i get a win security mesage, confirm to have the program change the system. Then it waits for a while and removes Xibo player. Then i simple doubleclick the1.2.1 package and it installs after i confirm the security message.

Perhaps it sounds a bit weird that the same settings were still there, looked like didn't a reinstall, but actually I deinstalled 3 times on the vista laptop and 2 times on my win7 system. Both the same results. Looks like somewere something is cached or whatever...

The version number doesn't appear to have been updated in the client build.
It is the newest client though in the MSI.

I've filed a bug for it.

The reason your display isn't showing up is another bug which was filled
last night.

We hope to have a fix or work around out for both today.

Has this problem been resolved? I'm having the exact same issues, the MSI Client I've installed is 1.2.0 which isn't allowing me to add the display on the server.

I haven't seen an official release yet. I imagine that changing the version number will be pretty quick, but the server changes will take somewhat longer.

Having said that though, I have seen that some code has been written that is currently being tested.

Hopefully the release won't be long coming. Thanks for your patience!

I'd just like to add a display... that's all I wanted to do... *sits patiently*

I know it can be frustrating, but the main thing is the fix comes out once and not a number of times as it was rushed out of the door

To be clear, there's nothing functionally wrong with the client MSI. It is
1.2.1. All that was missed was incrementing the version number. The problem
is with the server not showing unlicensed displays. We have a fix for that
and I'll be building new tarballs shortly.

Updated server files are now available to download.

https://launchpad.net/xibo/1.2/1.2.1

If you extract the new files over the top replacing the existing files first. Then go to the web interface as normal and it will ask you to perform an upgrade procedure. That's normal. If you just go through the process it will complete and then you should see your unlicensed displays when logged in as a user who has Super Admin privileges (ie xibo_admin).

Apologies for this problem.

Alex

I've spoken with Dan. Updated client MSIs will be availble in the next 24 hours or so - but again to reiterate, while the client reports it's version in the About dialogue as 1.2.0, it is infact 1.2.1 and will work with 1.2.1 server.

Updated release notes.

Have it, works fine now, the display was indeed already in the database. Also the display is showing the content.
Thank you very much!
I like Xibo.
