Problem with simultaneous class edit

Michael Bolien	Tuesday 26 August 2003 2:04:05 am Hi all, we run to great projects in one ezdatabase on ez 3.1.1. We are five admins to maintain data: Now we encountered a really weird thing: If two or more admins are in setup/classes/content/some class and leave that class via 'Discard' the same time coincidentally, the object "some class" disappears. It is never more displayed in content although it is still listed in the table 'ezcontentclass'. I still hope, that this is our own failure, maybe a configuration error? Bit, if it is a failure, it must be fixed immediately - otherwise we can't continue our work with ez. Regards, Michael
Jan Borsodi	Tuesday 26 August 2003 6:20:01 am We should add some warnings if a temporary version exists and it's not made by you, if this is true you shouldn't be allowed to edit the class. Perhaps a possibility to hijack the version if modification older than n hours? Besides from this I can't really recommend having multiple admins running around changing the same data at the same time, it's bound to give problems whatever system you have for it. -- Amos Documentation: http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation FAQ: http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/faq
