lomixture Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 Hello - We are currently testing the mobile app on Samsung mobiles within our organisation. One thing we are keen to be able to utilise for our teams spread geographically across the counties is the use of the photo uploading mechanism, to upload photos of issues/faults whilst at the scene. Presently, we are experiencing the below fault when trying to upload photos to the timeline and we're not sure why? Thanks Lauren 1
James Ainsworth Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 Hi Lauren, On my initial tests, I'm not experiencing the same issue. Is it possible to confirm the version of the Android app that you have installed. You can do this by opening the main menu on the Mobile App and select Settings near the bottom. This should then give you an About Hornbill option which when selected will show you the client version. I'm running 1.7.7. I will continue to test to see if I can replicate your issue. Regards, James
James Ainsworth Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 Hi Lauren, I have come across some reports of this happening with the app version 1.7.6. I've not seen any reports of it happening with 1.7.7. I will be interested to know which version you are running so we can determine if it is an ongoing issue or if it was fixed in the 1.7.7 update. Many thanks James
lomixture Posted May 18, 2018 Author Posted May 18, 2018 Hi James, The phones are running 1.7.7 currently. My colleague, who was experiencing the issue, has stated they were able to make it work once yesterday but upon trying to replicate it this morning has been unable to do so. This was by taking a photo directly from the app and uploading, they were unsuccessful in being able to upload a photo from their library. In our instance (KEPSM), the SR00001170 ticket number is the one where the photo was able to be uploaded. Lauren cc @John Delamare-Timms
Steve Giller Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 Just as an idiot-check, have you ensured none of the required permissions have been turned off? Mine has Camera/Contacts/Location/Phone/Storage permissions enabled, looking at your symptoms having Storage disabled (which can happen with an Android update) might prevent uploading library photos but having Camera enabled would allow direct upload of a photo.
James Ainsworth Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 HI @lokent We are still investigating and trying to replicate the issue. If it is ok, while we are investigating, if I ask a few more questions. Do you know if it is only this one user that is experiencing this issue or has this been seen by other users too? If you have access to the logs in Hornbill administration, I was wondering if there was anything recorded when they attempt to add the picture. This may help us determine if it is an issue with the app or the platform on the instance. Regards, James
lomixture Posted May 21, 2018 Author Posted May 21, 2018 @James Ainsworth, At the moment, as we are not live yet, only a small handful of people have downloaded the app for training purposes. I'm not sure to what extent they have all been testing it but I can certainly ask and see if they also have the same issue when trying to add a photo. In terms of the Hornbill logs, I'm not sure which log I would be looking at to determine this? Thanks Lauren
lomixture Posted May 21, 2018 Author Posted May 21, 2018 @BobbyB did you experience this/can you test whether you experienced the non uploading of images via the app?
lomixture Posted May 21, 2018 Author Posted May 21, 2018 @Mike Hibbitt - am I right in thinking you have experienced too? Lauren
Mike Hibbitt Posted May 21, 2018 Posted May 21, 2018 @lokent yes I can confirm I get the same issue on my work Samsung device. I have also tried on my personal iphone which also doesn't work but with a different error ' connection timed out' tried numerous times on 4g and Wifi same issue.
lomixture Posted May 21, 2018 Author Posted May 21, 2018 @James Ainsworth for info, myself and the gentleman above are all working on the KEPSM instance for our org.
James Ainsworth Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 @lokent it would most likely be the ESPServerService log. Open this up, select the following filters. Then try uploading a picture.
lomixture Posted May 22, 2018 Author Posted May 22, 2018 James, This is the line that comes up on the log after @BobbyB tried to upload a photo on his Samsung (also version 1.7.7). On Bob's phone, he received this error message: Could not index activity: Operation[indexer::docAdd] The element <tokenized> was not expected at location '/methodCall/ params/fieldValueitem/tokenized
James Ainsworth Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Thanks @lokent I'll pass this back to the development team to investigate. Regards, James 1
James Ainsworth Posted May 29, 2018 Posted May 29, 2018 Hi @lokent So far we have not been able to replicate the issue. As Mike is experiencing timeout issues while using 4G, I would think that this would be something different. Lauren, do you have the mobile app installed? James
lomixture Posted May 30, 2018 Author Posted May 30, 2018 Hi James, Unfortunately not, as I do not have a work approved mobile. The initial issue was experienced by @John Delamare-Timms, my line manager. The initial message of this thread was from John's phone, whilst on the organisation's wifi. Lauren
lomixture Posted June 5, 2018 Author Posted June 5, 2018 Hi @James Ainsworth, Do you require anything from us at this stage or are the developers looking into it? Thanks L
James Ainsworth Posted June 5, 2018 Posted June 5, 2018 Hi @lokent We still haven't been able to replicate the issue and so far not reported by other customers. There were some questions in our internal discussion on the file size and if they are too big, or maybe the file type is something that isn't on the allowed file types. I was hoping that you could get your hands on a mobile device that you can test on for us.
James Ainsworth Posted June 7, 2018 Posted June 7, 2018 @lokent we would also be interested in getting a copy of one of the images that is causing a problem if that is possible. You can send it using the private messages
lomixture Posted June 7, 2018 Author Posted June 7, 2018 James, No problem, I will try and get this done today for you. Lauren
