Is this just affecting your app or more wide spread than that? I don’t think there were any changes to app parameter sets nor did I see this specifically so I’d need some help tracking it down.

4

its affecting my app with every data table, i went back to 5.0.16 and thinks went back to normal its just happening in 5.1.0
i can share a code if that helps

5

Below is my initial script that app will call when it starts

$token = “xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx”
$headers = @{Authorization = “token $($token)”
Accept = “application/vnd.github.v3.raw”
}

$EndPoints = (Invoke-WebRequest -Headers $headers -Uri https://api.github.com/repos/test/dashboardStage/contents/EndPoints -UseBasicParsing).Content | ConvertFrom-Json
$EndPoints = $EndPoints | where {$.type -eq “file”} | Select -exp download_url | ForEach-Object {
Invoke-Expression $((Invoke-WebRequest -Headers $headers -Uri $ -UseBasicParsing).Content)
}

$Pages = (Invoke-WebRequest -Headers $headers -Uri https://api.github.com/repos/test/dashboardStage/contents/Pages -UseBasicParsing).Content | ConvertFrom-Json
$Pages = $Pages | where {$.type -eq “file”} | Select -exp download_url | ForEach-Object {
Invoke-Expression $((Invoke-WebRequest -Headers $headers -Uri $ -UseBasicParsing ).Content)
}

New-UDDashboard -Pages $Pages -Title “test” -Theme (Get-UDTheme -Name ‘MaterialDesign’)

i have my code in github and above script will download endpoints and pages and it works great up to 5.0.16 its just for some reason it errors out with 5.1.0

6

Ok. We did do some work on -LoadData for the table to return more data back to caller about columns. Could be related. Can you share your table code, even if you have to trim it a bit?

7

here is also the code for a page with services table

New-UDPage -Name “Services” -Icon (New-UDIcon -Icon rotate -Size 1x) -Content {

New-UDScrollUp

    New-UDDynamic -Id 'services' -Content {

                $ServicesList = $ServicesObj | Invoke-Parallel -ImportFunctions -ScriptBlock {

                    $sessionOp = New-CimSessionOption –Protocol DCOM

Thanks. I will take a look shortly.

Here what i was able to narrow based on the initial code i provided first

New-UDEndpoint: Parameter set cannot be resolved using the specified named parameters. One or more parameters issued cannot be used together or an insufficient number of parameters were provided.

so it seems the issue has nothing to do with the table its with reading new-udendpoint.

10

some extra log error after removing
-Schedule (New-UDEndpointSchedule -Every 1 -Day) from new-udendpoint -endpoint

Failed to get app. App was null. Make sure to return an app from your script.

I just migrated from 4.5 and I see error in logs: [ERR][UniversalAutomation.ExecutionService] Error flushing job logs

I don’t know if it is related but I keep getting jobs stuck “queued”

I ended up reverting back to 4.5

Hi,

Just tried to migrate from 5.0.16 to 5.1.0 on Windows MSI, but it failed to start :

After upgrading from 5.0.16 to 5.1.0 we can no longer edit any Apps.
The editor loads but instantly gets replaced by the following error:

An error occured. Cannot access a disposed object. Object name: ‘Microsoft.JSInterop.DotNetObjectReference`1[[BlazorMonaco.Editor.Editor, BlazorMonaco, Version=3.3.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null]]’.

@Eryas

Based on the line number, this looks like it’s failing to start because the JWT key is missing in the app settings. Did you change this value at all?

@chau

I’ll open an issue for this. Do this only happen on apps or every editor?

Milestone: 5.1.1 Milestone ¡ GitHub

17

Works fine on Scripts and under Settings > Files

18

Ok. Thank you. I’m not seeing this behavior at the moment.

Can you tell me more about your app? Are you using multiple pages, the module editor? Is it a pretty big app?

19

Seems unrelated to the App itself, happens on all Apps for us, small or big. No pages.

@adam

You are right, something went wrong with the backup of the config file (appsettings.json)

I’ve retry to update, and now it’s working. Thank you !
