Ethan,
That makes perfect sense.
In 1.2, I am noticing that if I assign "write" to "joe" in a pool, "joe"
can, indeed, write, but not read. Hope that's fixed in the newer versions.
Thanks
Jack

Hi Jack,
Just by way of explanation, I think that there have been some
significant changes to the timeline Javascript files between 1.2, 1.3,
and the upcoming 1.4. Most likely your browser was trying to use a
cached 1.3 .js file with the 1.2 backend code-base. That would
definitely not work as we changed some function and variable names, so
the backend was spitting out JS variables and functions to the browser
but the javascript already running in the browser had no idea what to
do with it.
Hopefully that explains the problem. Sorry for the apparent flakiness.
Cheers,
Ethan

My "virgin" browser was IE whatever comes with Win7. The others are Chrome
and FF. Clearing their cache fixed it. Everything is running well now, with
the 1.2 distro. I have not migrated back to trunk or 1.3 yet. Overall, it
was the cache issue, but I did drop the database and start over. I now have
three users running in it.
Created quite a few messages, some into a shared pool for two of the users.
I gave a member Write roll. He can write and the admin sees, but he cannot
read. Not sure if that's a bug?
Looking forward to the latest build running well.
Thanks

Did you delete the old db? If you deleted the old db, then the old
users are gone and you have to sign up again. If it was the first
message after starting then it might take a while for the message to
appear. Create 5 messages over a few minutes time span and see if the
problem still exists.
What browser are you using? There was an older bug with
InternetExplorer that some messages weren't being displayed.

I did a clean rebuild of the 1.2 distribution and ran mvn jetty:run
Logging in does not work at all. If I Sign Up and create a user, then I'm
in
and I can send a message with a tag. The tag shows, the timeline does
not.
But, when clicking users, that user's last message is visible. Something
fails in painting timelines.
Next trial will be to attempt to replicate this on a completely different
computer.

Thanks for the pointer: every database is separate.
I just noticed that each, whether I'm using it or not, has a db.lck
I just ran an experiment: removed the db.lck file in the 1.2
distribution (I don't know that much about Derby) and now it refuses to
respond to the Sign On button.
Still fiddling.

If you are using the integrated derby database, then you are probably
using it for multiple versions - which might not be a good thing. I
haven't tried it yet. Look for a folder called esme_db.
If you are using tomcat, try a clean build and then run esme with
jetty:run to see if the problem still exists. You may also want to
delete your browser cookies. That might be a problem as well.

What I mean is that the timelines stopped working entirely, but the

that were visible (this is the 1.2 distribution tarball).
I shut the system down and built the 1.3 rc-1 distribution tarball
and ran
that only to discover that tags were not working there. I then went
back to
the original 1.2 distro, booted it, noted my two users could still
log in,
but there are no timelines visible. Sending messages do not appear
anywhere.
I then went and booted the subversion 1.2 rc-1 tag; no tags, and
adding a
user to a pool fails.
I then went and booted the subversion trunk. Same issues.
All that to say that I had active timelines in the 1.2 distribution
until I
started running other distributions. By way of weak inference, I have
to
wonder if there is anything like a shared database among those builds.

There are no messages in the timeline? Tagged messages?

Regarding the "Edit" button for pools. Right now it is not
correctly
labeled, because you can just add users. But we plan to be able to
change other parts of the group (rename, etc) and then hopefully
the
"edit" label will be correct.

Where the messages never stop!
Went back to 1.2 with what I learned playing with 1.3.
1.2 lets me add "joe" as a user to my pool.
So, I suspect 1.3 is broken in terms of adding users to pools.

Clicking add user does nothing. "joe" is a real user visible in
the
user's list.
I hope to learn what you can do when you have a pool. Can you
assign
messages to the pool? Can pools be private?
