GeneWeb Service BUG InformationKnown Bugs or other issues The editor problem listed below (in rather small type to save space) has been fixed. However, one item related to this remains. The uploaded files from "MS Windows" and "Apple Corp Macs" contain
undesirable characters. These are CRLF (MS) and CR (Mac). If not cleaned of these characters, your customized pages will display incorrectly. To properly clean the uploaded customized files ( .txt files ),
simply do this;
A method of cleaning your files at upload is now being tested. Until it is available, please use this process. Thanks, Sysadmin The upload problem fix has been applied and tested. There are no known problems with GeneWeb. Bug 1 is closed. Info log below is the problem and fix ...
1. A problem has arisen when using the built-in Web Editors' "EDIT" function in the file /geneweb/gw/ge/lang/start.txt.
It seems the little guy changes the default accent character in non-english languages (esp French) into something GeneWeb misinteprets.
In the following links, click on them one at a time, then use "View Source" to note detail. The accent, see here in line starting with "fr:" of Default Start.txt . Now, compare with Editor Modified Start.txt .
The difference is quite noticable. There may be more but these are easy to spot. This might help;
Now, this is not to say that this is the only problem but it certainly is A problem. Don't have OCAML loaded so can't say why the esc'd are used. Perhaps a knowledgeable type will wander by with that answer. OK, now, on with a temporary workaround. I suggest NOT using the Web Editor to edit the /geneweb/gw/gw/lang/start.txt but instead, make changes on your local copy and upload for each change. Does this suck? Yes. Will a permanent fix be applied soon? Hope so. Until then, good luck. If you notice any other strange effects with GeneWeb, please use email link below to notify us ASAP.
