Servoy Client not showing same screens as Developer

[Robert Jackson]

We've had continuing problems getting Servoy client to show application changes that were made in Developer. We are developing the application off site and periodically replace the repository at the client's facility (detach repository from SQL Server and re-attach the new repository).

The changes appear using Developer at the client's facility, but Servoy Client continues to display the older version. How is this posiible if the repository for the older version no longer exists?

More importantly, what can we do to avoid this problem?

Thanks in advance,
Robert

Hi Robert,

Is there any reason why you are not using versioning !?

That is, exporting a solution from developer and then importing into server at the client location.

This will work independently from moving the repository and is the accepted safe method of updating your solutions.

If you simply move the SQL repository then there is nothing at the Servoy Server end to indicate that a new release is available and thus the client will not download a new version !!

There is more info regarding this in the Servoy Server admin guide and the developer manual chapter on 'repository'

Cheers
Harry

Harry,

Thanks for that. I knew the versioning feature existed, but hadn't taken the time to review it. I understand what you're saying now.

Best regards,
Robert
