Re: Witango-Talk: Witango server returns other users results..?

[John McGowan]

If you mispelled the scope as some variation of what it's supposed to be like Usre instead of User, or Locle instead of Local, etc... You would be creating a custom scope on the fly.  And that custom scope would be shared across all users.  This might cause this type of behavior. /John Andrew Derry wrote: Hi,   Thanks for all your replies!   Just a bit more info in relation to a couple of comments..   Each of the browsers are on separate IP's (I couldn't hit the search button fast enough and switch to another browser and hit the search button before the first browser's results returned on one machine) ;)   Also, neither of the machines are using proxies... And while they're not on the same subnet as the web server, there's only switches in between.   It's at least encouraging to hear that others are running the same basic environment and not experiencing the problem. Hopefully it means that I've only done something wrong somewhere. ;)   About the Mac.. It's OS X 10.3.9. And while it is a dual processor machine, it's only running one witangod process. (I haven't had the time or need to figure out how to make it run more than one.. Though I did try some time ago.)   The FileMaker is FMP 6.0v4 running on the Mac.   Any other thoughts or ideas much appreciated!   Thanks!    - Andrew     From: Roland Dumas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, February 28, 2006 4:38 PM To: witango-talk@witango.com Subject: Re: Witango-Talk: Witango server returns other users results..? think of scenarios in which the two browsers are going to look like the same visitor to the server: have cookies off and coming from the same external IP address two browsers hitting a link with a userref argument and sharing a session, particularly if default scope is user If you can, turn on debug and check to see that the userref cookie is different for the various users On Feb 28, 2006, at 3:18 PM, Andrew Derry wrote: Hello, We set up a few simple Tango apps a few years ago that I believe were Tango 3.6 - Which were not all that long ago ported up to Witango Server for OS X, currently v5.0.1.065. One app is a simple FileMaker DB search (If you can call FileMaker a DB?) ;) However since the upgrade, people have complained about getting results other than for what they searched... It turns out that if you hit the page from two different browsers at very close to the same time, they'll both get the results of one of the searches. It's basically just a simple form where the user just selects some values out of the table to bring up the resulting matching records. We just go: <FORM METHOD=POST ACTION=""> And then the TAF just branches on function and does a search on the @POSTARG's Actually, it didn't have that @USERREFERENCEARGUMENT at first, I added that out of desperation... But no luck... I also thought to check the DEFAULTSCOPE in the witango.ini - which for some reason was set to request, which I couldn't even find in the help (though my help seems to not be easily searchable) - So I tried setting it to user and re-starting the witangod, but it didn't make any difference either. Any ideas, anyone..? Do you need more info? It's been at least a year or two since I've had to do any Witango programming, and I never did do anything particularly complicated, so it might just be something obvious to others.. Any thoughts or suggestions would be very much appreciated.
