Hello ODK Developers,
I received the following stacktrace while posting SMS notification to
registered devices in ODK Manage
Uncaught exception from servlet
java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.odk.manage.server.servlet.DoActionServlet.handleNonTaskAction(DoActionServlet.java:142)
at org.odk.manage.server.servlet.DoActionServlet.doPost(DoActionServlet.java:89)
These are top two lines of the code. Can anyone sort/had sorted this out?
Himanshu Bansal
i haven't looked at manage in ages, but the sms functionality won't work
if it's deployed on app engine.
when we built manage, we were internal to google and so we could do
fancy (and free) things like sending sms. now that we are external,
the sms support is
no longer available. until the app engine team adds an sms api, it won't work...
perhaps you could look at connecting manage to something like
Ok. But I request you to put a handle on that operation on ODK Manage now,
it's showing a stacktrace!.
So that, in future, redundant posts do not arise here.
Himanshu Bansal
please file a bug or even better submit a patch.
What about FrontLineSMS, WinSMS and Clickatell. I can also use that, right?
Haha...
I will submit a bug first. Will submit a patch after attaching with some
free (almost) SMS API.
Himanshu
if those tools have a web api you can call, then use. if not, then no.
In the ODK Aggregate, when we include the location widget in our forms, and
complete that form (is-meta-complete = true), then only it shows location,
even if in false state, we have given location. Is this deliberate? What if
the surveyor does not fill optional fields, then we may not get location.
Also, my "meta-model-version" and "meta-ui-version" fields always remain
empty. Are they related to ODK Manage server, or anything else, please
clarify.
Himanshu
Be sure you have upgraded to the recent Beta 4. There were a number of bugs
in Beta 3 that could have caused the problems you're reporting.
In particular, if you uploaded a form in beta 3, all data after the first
missing image/audio/video clip would not be recorded; in beta 4, all data is
recorded.
The model-version and ui-version are in support of the OpenRosa metadata
attributes:
https://bitbucket.org/javarosa/javarosa/wiki/OpenRosaMetaDataSchema If you
aren't using them, they will be blank. Note that Aggregate 1.0 captures and
tracks these, but it requires that there be only one version of a form
defined at all times. I.e., operating with multiple versions of the same
form is not supported.

Himanshu,
ODK Manage contains interfaces and example code for connecting to external
SMS APIs. Take a look at:
There's some sample code for how to interface with an external SMS API. You
basically need (a) a sendSMS() that talks to the SMS service when ODK Manage
needs to send an SMS, and (b) a listener that receives SMS messages from the
service, generally by setting up a servlet on ODK Voice that the service
posts messages to. Feel free to ask for more information on the list.

Thanks Adam and Mitch.
I have upgraded by ODK Aggregate to v1 beta 4.
But there is a problem, after setting it up on an App engine application, it
refreshes again and again, whenever I press any button on it.
Himanshu
Hi Himanshu,
When upgrading across the betas, you need to either always deploy it to a
newly created appspot instance
or follow the detailed migration instructions in the release notes
http://code.google.com/p/opendatakit/wiki/AggregateReleaseNotes
In this case, for Beta 4, there was a significant schema change that
requires deleting all data in the appspot instance. If you don't you get
the refresh problem you describe.
Mitch
Thanks Adam and Mitch.

ODK Developers,
I have a simple doubt, how to get submissions on the localhost copy of
Aggregate.
Himanshu
Himanshu,
We need more information than this to help.
Have you uploaded a form?
Have you set the permissions properly?
How are you trying to upload the submissions?
Waylon
Ok, I have figured out the submission part.
Next problem:
I want to customize maps screen (map.html). How to get visualization
components on localhost?
it's all in code.
I saw that code, but how to checkout all Aggregate components, and deploy
and run it on localhost, so that front screen exactly matches that one of
the deployed one on Appengine instance.
Also, I would like to run that local instance on PHP MySQL instead of
datastore, is this all possible?
I have tried checking out all Aggregate components, along with main
Aggregate repository, but they all come as different projects in eclipse...
Also, when I am importing my Aggregate into Eclipse using Mercurial plugin,
and run the local instance, I get the following error:

Plz help!!!
This is a problem with the google plugin for app engine. I know the
suggestions on the eclipse debugging suggestions sound simple and
don't look like they do much but they basically cause the plugin to
rebuild everything. Make sure the app is stopped when you do it.
http://code.google.com/p/opendatakit/wiki/EclipseDebugging
If you would like to use mysql have you tried our installer that
configures it all for you? If you want to do it manually you need to
use V1_0 branch as there are multiple projects setup for the various
platforms. You will want the mysql project. I highly recommend using
our installer as there are lots of setup that is needed.
