  • 1.  Datalinq not updating from XML

    Posted 04-16-2020 23:10
    I created an XML file with dashboard and have set up serval parameters. I then setup a datalinq via XML for use in xpression. I am running into an issue where the dashboard is changing and updating values but the datalinq is not reflecting that and therefore neither is xpression. The xml and dashboard files are on the xpression D drive and I have tried setting the polling to 1 second and selecting the correct coding. I have reviewed the log files in datalinq and there is no issues being recorded. What am I missing?

    I'm not familiar with using dashboard or using dashboard to manage data, but if you see values are being changed on the dashboard side but when you open the actual Data.XML file those attributes aren't reflecting the new data, it suggests to me that changes aren't being committed.

    If you ARE seeing the data within your XML file being committed then some things that come to mind are:

    • Datalinq Manager hasn't been added on the Xpression project side (this sometimes happens when setting a project up and opening it elsewhere)
    • Text objects aren't set to live update
    • The datalinq server sources are named incorrectly and are mismatched to what the XPR is looking for.

    I opened the file in Notepad++ and turned on live changes and it appears that dashboard is not saving the xml till dashboard is closed.  I tried turning on streaming but the memory slow creeps up till dashboard is unusable.

    I found the issue.  At some point recently I turned on run task on load and this was causing a loop issue
