Hi,

today I received the update of ClearOS 7.3 and figured out that the "Recent Software Activity" on the dashboard and under Cloud are not updated. I still see my last update on the 26th of January.

Best regards
Christoph

    Ben. OK - never use the dashboard - it is as it comes - the default layout. In fact must confess until yesterday had not used the function in Webconfig to see Software Updates. Usually have an ssh screen open for each of my servers 24/7 - and look directly at /var/log/yum.log with an editor for that sort of information or grep to make a selection etc

    Looking via Cloud -> Software Updates -> Updates - tried option 2 after editing the file - no change. Did do a restart of webconfig just in case it was required before testing... I think I mentioned previously that ClearOS 6.8 does not display this behaviour with the same the same browsers. The dashboard on 6.8 is setup whatever the default is - again - never use it.

    If I have time tomorrow could setup to a machine that displays this problem (at least to me) and give you webconfig and ssh access - it's only an old single core AMD Sempron i.e. not supported :-( - It has really nothing on it other than basic install with custom partitions. I have only used it to test my AWStats instructions... of any value?

    If it means anything I live in Australia - so that's my locale for everything...

    Since it's browser dependent, it *must* have something to do with Datatables. Sorting is disabled if the software updates dashboard widget occupies a 'grid' layout of 2 or more columns. When viewing in FF, do you have have the dashboard widget in one column?

    You can try one of two things to confirm.

    1. Delete the widget, and re-add it to a a widget layout that has two or more widgets in a column. My guess is that this works?

    2. Leave your software updates as one single column, and edit /usr/clearos/apps/software_updates/views/dashboard/activity.php

    and change


    if ($layout['total_columns'] == 1) {
    $options['sort-default-col'] = 2;
    $options['sort-default-dir'] = 'desc';
    } else if ($layout['total_columns'] == 2) {
    $options['responsive'] = array(2 => 'none');
    $options['sort'] = FALSE;
    $options['default_rows'] = 20;


    to


    if ($layout['total_columns'] == 1) {
    $options['sort'] = FALSE;
    } else if ($layout['total_columns'] == 2) {
    $options['responsive'] = array(2 => 'none');
    $options['sort'] = FALSE;
    $options['default_rows'] = 20;


    Work?

    FWIW, I can't reproduce this in the FF I use on Linux mint (51.0.1).

    OK - an update on this problem... ClearOS 7.x

    Clicking through to the 46th screen of 62 using FF - found February... it's there.

    so on Firefox, IE and SeaMonkey suspect this sort going from Screen 1 and advancing to screen whatever

    Months start from Jan, Feb -> Nov, Dec #Forwards
    Days 31,30 -> 1
    Time 24, 23 -> 0

    Whereas in Chrome...

    Months start from Dec, Nov -> Feb, Jan # Backwards
    Days 31,30 -> 1
    Time 24, 23 -> 0

    Interesting comment re. date formats...

    I just tried the exact same browsers with ClearOS 6.8 - no problem whatsoever with the Software Updates page.

    So it has got to be ClearOS 7.x

    Hi,
    I have had the same? problem in 7.2 too. Never thought it could be browser related. In my case ALL entries are to be found, however they do not appear in order... Try to select to see ALL messages and see if you find the "missing" packages further down the list.

    I reported this to Ben that fixed one bug but then he could not reproduce the wrong order. Maybe we were just using different browsers...

    Could this be a date format issue mm/dd/yy vs. dd/mm/yy or yy/mm/dd vs yy/dd/mm ?

    In my case the packages order is different in the software uppdate app compared to the recent sw list on the dashboard

    I am normally using Edge browser.

    Interesting - I normally use Chrome...

    Just tried FF (Linux Workstation) and it displays the same problem as you have. Got to be some incompatibility between FF and webconfig :(
    Looks like it cannot see the current month in FF - Jan 31, 07:59:36 is the last enrty before February.

    Ben - nice little puzzle for you :)

    UPDATE: Fired up my Windows 8.1 and tried IE (yuck) - same problem as with FF - only January. Webconfig definitely needs to be fixed - wonder if the devs only use Chrome for testing?

    SeaMonkey fails as well - latest update shown Jan 31st

    I run the yum commands.
    The system is up to date.

    The funny thing is that I tested Chromium and I can see the new updates.

    I tested with a different PC and Firefox and I still see the old updates from January. Looks like this is related to the browser.
    Cache could be excluded as I delete the cache while closing the browser.

    I just cleared the cache again in FF and still the same behaviour.

    Best regards

    Did you run the 'yum' commands?
    Page cached? Clear browser cache. Try a different browser... if using a proxy with the browser try disabling proxy as a test (unlikely)..
