Version: 3.1 (using KDE 3.1.0) Installed from: SuSE Compiler: gcc version 3.2 OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.20-4GB-athlon Every time I use the upload dialog, Quanta wants to upload recently modified files that have already been uploaded by it. I haven't been able to understand why it does that. I checked the timestamps on involved files, they look OK. I tried to use the "touch" command on the project master file, it didn't change anything. Thanks for your attention!
If it may help: I'm using Quanta 3.1.1 now and the problem is still there. As long as I don't close Quanta, it uploads normally, only the newly-modified files. But if I close Quanta and open it again, it will try to upload a lot of files; not all, only recent ones, as if it had forgotten they were already uploaded. A timestamp problem?
I have the same problem. I'am using quanta 3.1.1 on a SuSE 7.3 kernel 2.4.10 and gcc 2.95.3. I found out that quanta does not save the upload-timestamps of the uploaded files after it has finsihed the upload. It only saves the timestamp if some of the project options are changed.
Subject: Re: Quanta always tries to upload too many files Well, I just can't reproduce it. :-( There is code to put the current timestamp in the project file after a file was uploaded, and I verified and this code get executed. I made some changes, but I doubt that it will fix for you. You might want to update from CVS. Also if there is a concrete way how you can reproduce the bug, please share with me. I'm interested in.
Unfortunately, it is very easy to reproduce it for me: create a project, put files in it. As long as you don't close Quanta, upload will work. But when it is started again, it has forgotten everything that has been uploaded. This behavior was more chaotic in Quanta 3.1, I couldn't find the "rule", but in 3.1.1 it is clearly what I described above. If I can manage to create a RPM package for the CVS version, I may give it a try. Does it require any new library? I have KDE 3.1.1a and I don't want to upgrade it.
Subject: Re: Quanta always tries to upload too many files Hi, QUANTA_3_1_BRANCH in CVS should compile without problems on KDE 3.1.1a, and I wouldn't expect big problems even for Quanta from CVS HEAD (if you don't compile in the kafka part. By default it won't be included anyway). Andras

I'm interested in. There is nothing special to reproduce the bug. I think, the timestamps are updated in the in the program, because as long as quanta is running uploaded file are correctly marked as uploaded. But after i closed quanta and started it again the file are marked as new again. Maybe its an error in my webprj-file so I send my current file with this Mail. I have just another question, because i tried ti compile the actual quanta-sources anf gcc said that he is missing the file "usr/lib/libart_lgpl_2.la". I this directory I can only find the file "/usr/lib/libart_lgpl_2.so.2". So where can I get this missing file? Thank for your help. Hendrik Created an attachment (id=1356) thw-siegen.webprj.gz
Subject: Re: Quanta always tries to upload too many files If i understand this issue correct quanta save the webprj file when you quit quanta. It seems that quanta, during one session, knows that the files are uploaded, but it does not know that this information is new and must be written to the webprj file at the end of the program.
Subject: Re: Quanta always tries to upload too many files I've tried again: 1. create new project 2. upload project (all files) 3. close quanta 4. run quanta, open project 5. upload project->no files are selected... Please, try with the latest CVS version (from QUANTA_3_1BRANCH if you want a "stable" one, altough HEAD is usually quite stable and with more features). > I have just another question, because i tried ti compile the actual > quanta-sources anf gcc said that he is missing the file > "usr/lib/libart_lgpl_2.la". I this directory I can only find the file > "/usr/lib/libart_lgpl_2.so.2". So where can I get this missing file? I have them in gnome-libs-devel. Sure it is in some -devel or -dev package. Or you can recompile libart_lgpg by checking out from the kdesupport package from CVS. (cvs co kdesupport/libart_lgpl). When you compile the sources, the .la file will be created and installed.

I have seen similar problems with other programs not saving settings. In those cases it was a matter of the file permissions making the settings file not user writable. Have the file permissions of the project files been verified? I would like to know the status of the original report too. Currently we have two people reporting it, both on SuSE and one has resolved it by compiling from source. This looks like a packaging related bug. We cannot reproduce it. Under these circumstances we should make this last effort and then, barring any other ideas, mark it as not reproducable and close it.
I was the one who opened that bugreport. I made an RPM package from Quanta 3.2-CVS, it works beautifully now (except the "Update opening/closing tags automatically" option, which acts really weird for now). I'll try to reinstall Quanta 3.1.1 on another SuSE box, and I'll check all permissions. I'll let you know as soon as it's done.
Subject: Re: Quanta always tries to upload too many files Hi, Can you test (and report the results) it with the latest CVS version? (HEAD or QUANTA_3_1_BRANCH). The important changed file is quanta/project/projectupload.cpp. Andras
Subject: Re: Quanta always tries to upload too many files How stable is Quanta HEAD, now? I've been using HEAD from the 15th of April, it works just great. If the new HEAD is as good, I'll compile it. Otherwise, I'll try the 3.1 branch.

Two things: 1) I installed Quanta 3.1.1 on a clean SuSE box and checked the permissions, everything is correct but the problem is still there. 2) I will compile today's CVS HEAD tonight and test it tomorrow or the day after. See you then!
OK, I compiled Quanta 3.2 CVS from the 6th May, if works well so far. I mostly tested the upload dialog and found no problem with it. My previous CVS compile had no problem either, so let's say I'm as happy as before. :-) If anyone is interested, I made a RPM with this compilation (for SuSE 8.2), it can be found at ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/linux/misc/suser-tcousin/suse82/i586/RPMS.Thibaut/quanta-3.2-0.20030506.i586.rpm and the source RPM package at ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/linux/misc/suser-tcousin/suse82/i586/SRPMS.Thibaut/quanta-3.2-0.20030506.src.rpm If this is also corrected in the 3_1_BRANCH, maybe you can close the bugreport? Thanks to the Quanta team!

The files are uploaded and marked as uploaded in correct way. So everything is Ok. Thanks Andras Hendrik
