Hi everybody, I was wondering about something. The application I'm currently working on run on an external database (MySql, Ubuntu server). This is fine, although performance wise, things could be snappier. My thought was: is it possible to import the SQL dump file, created with SQL Workbench (including the create schema command) into the local HSQL database? I'm sorry if this question has been answered in the past, but I couldn't find a thread about this specific case. Regards, Bart van den Heuvel

Object Locking / Record Locking
There have been various questions asked in the past about object locking and it seems to be unresolved. I needed a mechanism to lock an object for the duration of a user transaction and found that the Community Commons locking mechanism has been removed because it was working in the Application Server and this is no use in a load-balanced architecture. So I have created a fairly simple mechanism that relies on the database to keep track of locks, based on the GUID of the objects. The pattern would be easy to replicate in any project. If anyone is interested, I would be happy to share, as I would appreciate other people's input to validate my design. Also I would like to know whether Mendix are about to publish a new solution to this problem.

Business Process Orchestration and Choreography
Mendix uses BPMN models called Microflows to specify application logic inside a microservice. BPM/SOA platforms used to support BPMN-based orchestration of SOAP, REST and micro services. The microservice architecture prefers choreography over orchestration typically using publish-and-subscribe messaging. My question is what Mendix does or will likely do in the near future to help developers implement business process orchestration and choreography involving many micro, REST and SOAP services internal and external to the Mendix platform? Capgemini seems to have done process orchestration pulling together Mendix apps and SAP SOA services. And it seems contributing to CORA (Common Reference Architecture) to further advance BPM/SOA directions in the face of new types of SOA services such as the microservices generated from HP aPaaS like Mendix. Does anyone know what Mendix capabilities are available now for BP orchestration and choreography, and where they are headed to make them easier to implement?

Error while fetching object with guid
Hi, For whatever reason in my app, I sometimes get this error message when navigating from one page of the menu to another: Error while fetching object with guid 4503599627371605 The id obviously changes, but I am not sure why this happens. It also happens fairly randomly and haven't noticed a concrete pattern. Please help with any information you have, if you had this sort of issue before and what were the steps taken to eliminate the error. Thank you.

Timeout mobile hybrid app defaults to 5000 ms.
Hi, we're moving our project from 6 to 7. Not sure if this issue is related to the upgrade, but then just for context. When trying to execute a microflow the following error message is shown: A connection error occurred, please try again later. Then when checking the console it says: Error: Request POST https://jadajada.mendixcloud.com/xas/(executeaction) timed out after 5000 ms. This issue only applies to the mobile hybrid app, because when you call the same microflow using a desktop browser, then it works as expected. When checking the phonegap package, I assume the timeout is specified by the server timeout setting in the dojo config section. Why is there an extra timeout for mobile defined in the phonegap package, and should we change this, or go for workaround i.e. change microflow call type to asynchronous? Edit: You need to edit the entry.js in the src\www\scripts folder
MxApp.onConfigReady(function(config) {
// Perform any custom operations on the dojoConfig object here
window.dojoConfig.server.timeout = 15000;
});

MxAdmin is not associated with correct user role
Hi Everyone, I have 'Administrator' and 'User' user roles who have access to certain pages. In the Project security > Administrator, initially I selected 'Administrator' as user role for MxAdmin. When I run the project locally and log in as MxAdmin, I was able to see correct pages and only had one role associated to MxAdmin account, so far all good! When I go back again to Project security > Administrator and change the user role from 'Administrator' to 'User' and re-run the project locally, I expected the MxAdmin account to be just associated with user role 'User' but it seems like MxAdmin account has now got two user roles (Administrator and User). If I change this project security setting again to select any other new user role (example Finance) then this role also get associated to MxAdmin account and the list of associated user roles will increase by one. When I deploy the change to test environment and log in as MxAdmin then the MxAdmin account is still associated to 'Administrator' role instead of 'User'. I never noticed this behaviour before maybe because I never changed the MxAdmin role from 'Administrator' to any other role. Just wanted to check with community if anyone tried this scenario and faced similar issue? Is this a bug or expected behaviour? EDIT: This issue is fixed in 7.18.0, please find the comment by Mendix below; " We have fixed this issue in Mendix 7.18.0. Starting from Mendix 7.18, MxAdmin user has only one role - the one configured in the Security settings of the project. But if an existing gets upgraded to the Mendix 7.18 for local projects no changes in the MxAdmin user roles are done until you select a different role in the Security settings and the project has to be restarted. This ensures that create_admin_user action is sent with a new role to Runtime. Please note that for apps deployed on premise the creation of an admin user has to be initiated from the Service console. " Thanks in advance!

No constructor found for widget ListViewSwipe
Hi everybody, Im trying to include the listview swipe widget into my project. When I run the project (locally) underneath the listview this error is shown: "No constructor found for widget ListViewSwipe.widget.ListViewSwipe" I've searched the forum about this issue, and tried the suggested solutions: clean deployent dir, empty cache, reinstall widget... but no success. Could it be that the plugin has compatability issues with version 7.18 of the modeler? Regards, Bart

Webservice user sessions seem not to be deleted
Hi, In our application there are both anonymous users and single-signed on users using the SAML module. Because of security requirements I have a scheduled event which deletes all non-webservice users every 5 minutes and I configured the SAML-users to be webservice users, such that the normal login procedure will never work as there are no local users. Unfortunately, this setup backfires on me as the named user sessions seem not to be deleted. Apparently, sessions of webservice users are not ended automatically (see graph below). Has somebody tips to enable session time-outs for webservice users? Or disable the normal login-method in some other way and go back to non-webservice users?

Pagination widget shows "[No translation]"
Hi all, I got a quite simple question about the Pagination widget from the List view controls. I added the widget to my page, but it renders with the text [No translation]. Im using 'Default' as Paging style and no input at the Page size options tab. The language of my application is set to Dutch, so I guessed I have to give a translation for the widget. I already tried Language -> Batch translate -> Look for the 'From {1} to {2}' and translated it to 'Van {1} tot {2}'. Also if I scan the list with non-translated senteces from both Dutch to English as English to Dutch I don't see any options which could be for the translation for the pagination widget. Anyone any idea how I can fix this?

Retrieve from database vs by association
I have a microflow where I retriebe an entity by association. This takes nearly 100 ms. This seem to be too long for me and I triy to retrieve it from the database which takes 40 - 50 ms. I'm wondering why it is faster to retrieve it from the database. When I look into the microflow engine output it looks like that the entity is retrieved from the cache when I retrieve it from the database. This should be quite faster in my opinion. Anyone has an idea?
