Issue when using alert within a function
(1 response) rita alves 2019-10-28 04:21
Hello

I have the following questions within a survey design code:

{"name" : "inidt",
  caption" : "Data de início:",
  "xtype": "datefield"},

 {"extConfig":{
              "fieldLabel": "Descontinuação?",
              "xtype":"radiogroup",
             "name":"discquestion",
            "columns":1,
             "items":[
                {"boxLabel":"Sim",
                  "name":"disc",
                  "inputValue": 1},
                {"boxLabel":"Não",
                 "name":"disc",
                 "inputValue": 0},
                {"boxLabel":"Desconhecido",
                 "name":"disc",
                 "inputValue": "NA"}]}},

         {"extConfig":{
            "name" : "discdt",
            "fieldLabel" : "Data de descontinuação:",
            "xtype": "datefield",
            "hidden": true},
          "listeners": {
             "change": {
               "question": "discquestion",
                  "fn" : "function(me, cmp, newValue, oldValue){var cmp2 = cmp.getValue(); if (cmp2.disc == 1) {me.setVisible(newValue); console.log(cmp2.disc);} else {me.setVisible(false);}} "}}},

 {"extConfig":
                 {"name" : "obs",
                  "caption" : " ",
                  "xtype": "textareafield",
                 "grow" : true,
                 "width": 800,
                 "height": 200},
                "listeners": {
                     "change": {
                           "question": ["discdt","inidt"],
                          "fn" : "function(me, cmp, newValue, oldValue){var q1 = cmp.getName(); var q2 = cmp.getName(); if (q1 == 'inidt'){q1val = newValue; console.log(newValue);} else if (q2 == 'discdt'){q2val = newValue; console.log(newValue);}; if (q1val>=q2val){alert('nooooooo')};}; console.log(newValue); "}}}

I was trying to make question "discdt" visible only if disc = 1 (this is working). Although I would like to add a validation of the dates: discdt has to be more recent than inidt. This is working if i am creating a new survey. Howerver when I try to access a saved/submitted survey it is just "loading" (this is a problem cause I need to access the surveys after they are filled).

Could you please help?
Thank you!

File Repository Sorting
(3 responses) vcleveland 2019-10-11 11:38

I am trying to setup a repository for MRI DICOM and 3D Mesh files. I am using some pictures from a camping trip as dummy files. I've added a few Properties (all single line text <10 characters) to test out the repository and to represent metadata later on. In the toolbar and grid settings I've checked those properties to be sortable. When working in the file repository I can not sort by the custom properties. When I try and sort by the property is just sorts by the file name instead.

My goal is to make a system where a user can sort and filter these files and download the results in bulk. I'll worry about more advanced features later.

Hello Support,

Suspected problems with Server.xml config
(1 response) david lee 2019-08-12 06:22

Hi,
A newbie here. I'm working with my IT colleagues to set up LabKey Server. We have run through the manual install process with the online documentation. All seemed to go ok (except for the certificate security - but that's less important at the moment).

We are using LINUX App Server and Postgres SQL server.

We know tomcat is runningok as we can connect to the path: https://localServer:8443
But we get an "HTTP Status 404 – Not Found" when we try to access https://localServer:8443/labkey/

Any ideas on what we should be looking at - the IT guys want someone to lookover the Server.xml file. Is that something I can get help with here?

Using a local R scripting engine
(1 response) nstafford 2019-07-25 11:49

I am using the trial version of labkey. I was hoping to set up some R Reports, but the Labkey trail R engine does not have the packages installed that I need. I tried to change the R scripting engine to my local R.exe, but it doesn't seem to be letting me do that. Is installing new packages/using a local R scripting engine possible with the labkey free trial? If not, what version of labkey would allow me to do this?

xls columns not imported

Hello,

I've set up a cloud trial server and project and am trying to import a simple .xls file into the Laboratory Data but only half of my columns are being imported. I believe that I've set the data type correctly. Some Strings come through, others don't and it's the same with Numbers (Double).
I've tried twice with the same result.

Hi am trying to test the Remote Login API as described in the documentation here:

Is there a configuration setting I must use?

Two columns mapped error
(1 response) sadams7703 2018-12-17 09:35

Hi,
When I try to upload datasets I get an error message "Two columns mapped to target column: ptid_full".
I am not sure why this is. "ptid_full" is the subject ID as defined in the Study Properties.
There is a second column in the Excel sheet named "ptid" as you can see in the screen shot. Deleting this column in Excel fixes the problem, but I don't understand why LabKey is trying to map two columns instead of only the "ptid_full" column.
Thanks,
Scott

Additional finding-- renaming the column "ptid" to "ptidnum" in Excel (instead of deleting) also allows upload.

Participants not cleanly deleted?
(1 response) sadams7703 2018-12-01 17:23

Hi,
In learning with the trial I have uploaded some data then wanted to delete it. However when I delete it the participants remain. See attached screenshot which says "clean data tracks data in 0 datasets over 1 visit. Data is present for 214 Participants. "

This is after uploading a dataset, using the file to create the dataset, and then using Manage to delete to dataset.
What is the reason these participants will not disappear?
Thanks,
Scott
