Update recently? deleting

Update recently? deleting

Wekan / Bugs · February 28, 2020 at 4:04pm (Edited 5 years ago)

was there an update last evening or the day before?

deleting archived cards do not stay deleted. Refreshing screen and they return in the list of archived things to delete

HOW do you clear out all cards from the system not using the GUI? Its suddenly happening on all three systems with no code changes.

Can we roll back to the last version. THis is broken

other issues: when updating with new cards from the api looking at the contents of the new cards put the GUI into some sort of wait mode. Until you refresh the screen several times you get this behavior that indicates its not connecting to Mongo or something

In fact the deleting the archived boards works and on screen refresh they are still there seems like its never deleting from Mongo at all

Another hint: in addition to the GUI thinking the archived card is deleted and when you refresh its not, the webhooks are not being sent out when the delete happens. So it seems that the GUI is disconnected from the mongo and webhook piece entirely.

Question: in addition to rolling back the code, using snap installed wekan, what is the correct way to get into mongo shell under snap wekan? I can at least see what is in the database then and perhaps clear it out

LMK

more hints, I can't delete archived cards but I can restore them. When I do I cannot disable or remove webhooks associated

HOw do I get into wekan under snap mongo to clear these out?
