@Gary, it might be easier to just add the outlook application to the 3rd party access list.

As jmazzie said, this is due to the feature change of security. To solve it, login to your email from a browser: 1) turn on 2-factor. Goto your account (manage your account) and then click on secrity recommendations to set it up. 2) click on security on left menu and then click on App passwords. the...

Hello all, I finally downgraded my mysql to 8.0.28 with manually installing of it. This is going to be an issue with the trend of dropping the current UTF8 (utf8mb3) inplementation. I think the latest mysql/mariadb are all using the utf8mb4 as the default and eventually opendental need to have a sol...

Hello All, I got into a situation that none of opendental works now. after investigating, I found that my Ubuntu server upgrade the mySQl server to the latest 8.0.29 from 8.0.28. which for some reason it errors out with "The Given Key Was Not Present In The Dictionary" Exception. They are certain pe...

Thanks for your interest and support!

Hello Bak2 and all others have performance issues with mysql server, As these 2 weeks I have helped some offices to solve the mysql performance issues and I found out that the major problem is the mysql installation. In both 2 cases, they are using mysql 5.5 32bit on a powerful 64bit machine. The is...

i think the parameter for key_buffer_size is wrong for your configuration and you need to change it ASAP to harness the machine power you have. you put it as key_buffer, i searched my db and there is no key_buffer variable (i am using 8.x through, use this to check: show variables like "key_buffer%"...

Please download the latest if you are using OD-insight.

Thank you very much.

Another thing might be quick for you is to tune your mysql if you have never done so. Most people use the default parameters which are only for minimum hardware settings and with current box setting there are lot of leeway if you tune it to increase the query performance. the following three made a ...

I would say the 2nd server will make a difference if you put all the reporting related functions on the 2nd server. This is like the practice to put OLAP in another server in the industry. Of course, if you can identify the long running application then you might save the 2nd server. Basically: 1) s...

Hello Opendental communities, With tons of data to parse through, it can be difficult to navigate patient history and understand your clinic's growth.

Hello Everybody, After running 2 months of the OD 20.3.x with mysql 8.0.x, there are something to be noted in case anyone else going to try the new version of mysql: 1) We use lighthouse before for appointment reminders etc. It was working smoothly. Due to the upgrade of the mysql, the lighthouse wa...

The schema change is a discipline, once starts, it might have some cry during the first 1-2 releases, but late on will smooth out. for the git move, I would think it would be better if done earlier since it will enhance your release strategies in addition to other benefits. I might be able to help i...

jfd2

Thanks for the reply. I noticed that while I was playing with it with inno engine. But if backup is the concern here, do we think the copy of db is the best way? I would think that with lots of unused databases must have some performance hits, in addition to the diskspace and fragmentation. In my ca...

jfd2

I checked the table type, they are still myisam types. long time ago I converted all tables to inno and opendental converted back automatically. Should I keep the myisam type or innoengine is supported?

Thanks.

Hello all, I have an initial try today with the opendental 20.3.44 to connect with the mysql8.0 (ubuntu 20lts default installation). here are the findings: 1) when using the native code without any changes, there is an error message "Retrieval of the RSA public key is not enabled for insecure connec...

Some thoughts on the DB corruption since Dr Sparks mentioned that the maintenance time consumed. As myself an engineer in the bay area, have done lots of releases. It might be better to adopt a different release strategies to reduce the dev debt. Looks like you are on the quarterly release trains. i...

jfd2

Thank you both for the replies. good point that from now on if I checked out version, I will try to use the tag to avoid this issue. right now my next step is let the doctor play for several days with the new version and I will try to connect it to the mysql 8.0.

jfd2

Ok, I pulled the latest code 20.4.22 and then recompiled it. the issue magically gone. Is this due to some odd/even version strategies?
thanks.

jfd2

I reproduced this again using 20.4.21.0, which is the latest code I pulled as of yesterday. here are the observation: When db upgrade start, the message clearly stated that the upgrade is to 20.4.21.0, but as it finished, it bumped up to 20.4.22.0. So resetting or auto-increasing this number during ...

Ok, did more on this today and got very puzzled. Basically I pulled the 20.4 branch and compiled it. then running it got the database upgrade. unfortunately the same thing happened. the error message is "app 20.4.21.0 less than db 20.4.22.0". I am wonder if my db has some issues previously exist tha...

jfd2

Actually I did not do anything unusual to come to that. after compiling and I run it directly from the release dir to test. then it started the db upgrade as expected, which is from 17.3.x to 20.3.x. At the end, it throws the version mismatch message and out. I guess if it is not a bug, then might b...

jfd2

thanks! that solved the compile issue and all dlls comiled. then it bumps into the app version lower than the db version (43 < 44 as it indicated).

Thank you very much, Dr. Sparks. That makes sense now.

Hello, all, I just upgraded the clinic to 7.5 and started to using it today. one thing comes up that I am confused.

Another dummy question, do we need anything else, except the dotnet and all the compiled solution dir from the opendental. anything else did I miss?

i tried by changing all projects to targeting 3.5 and still make no difference when move to another machine.

Ok, I get little more. although not sure about the cause of my problem. since vs10 let you chose the target .net platform to run. i found out that 5 of the projects (rdlengine, rdlview, reportdesigner, xcodebase, xdatabaseIntegritycheck) aare all targeted 2.0 but all others are targeting 3.5? is thi...

jfd2

thanks for the reply, I actually copied the who dir from the dev machine to other machines. But I did a fold comparison and there was no difference between these OD folders. so if the dll is missing or wrong version, then must be some common ones somewhere.
