Client-side logging
Locked

Hi all,
I wondered if there is any way of getting javascript error messages back from the client? I notice that when a javascript error happens, Orbeon display "Error while processing response: XXX" in the top left of the page. Is there a way of catching this error so that one could send it back to the server for logging. The problem is that even when this error occurs the rest of the xform might appear to work correctly but still failing for some reason. I had a situation a while ago and my users could not tell that a problem had occurred (especially in situations where the page scrolls down and the top-left area of the page is then hidden). They just noticed that their data was suddenly not being saved.

I think that we already catch errors so that we can give the form a chance to keep working. Alex should be able to comment a little more on this. -Erik -- Orbeon Forms - Web Forms for the Enterprise Done the Right Way http://www.orbeon.com/ -- You receive this message as a subscriber of the [hidden email] mailing list.

Two things: 1) We could display the errors in a more end-user-friendly way. This involves: 1.1) Giving the option to reload the page, or to go to a "home page" when an error happens. 1.2) Display the error message the same way we now display the Loading indication, so people get a chance to see the message even if they have scrolled down. 2) Reporting back errors to the server, so you can find then in the log files. We already have an RFE for (1). I added comment relative to (1.2), per your suggestion. http://forge.objectweb.org/tracker/?group_id=168&atid=350207&func=detail&aid=305542 I added an RFE for (2): http://forge.objectweb.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=307183&group_id=168&atid=350207 Alex -- Orbeon Forms - Web 2.0 Forms, open-source, for the Enterprise http://www.orbeon.com/ -- You receive this message as a subscriber of the [hidden email] mailing list.

Dear Orbeon guys,
Regarding this issue, I am getting errors like this one on top of the page and I don't know if it is possible to show the html page defined in the error message instead of the red text with all this message: Error while processing response: <html><head><title>Apache Tomcat/5.5.16 - Informe de Error</title><style><!--H1 {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;fo nt-size:22px;} H2 {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;fo nt-size:16px;} H3 {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;fo nt-size:14px;} BODY {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:black;background-color:white;} B {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;} P {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;background:white;color:black;font-size: 12px;}A {color : black;}A.name {color : black;}HR {color : #525D76;}--></style> </head><body><h1>Estado HTTP 500 - </h1><HR size="1" noshade="noshade"><p><b>type</b> Informe de estado</p><p><b>mensaje</b> <u></u></p><p><b>descripción</b> <u>El servidor encontró un error interno () que hizo que no pudiera rellenar este requerimiento.</u></p><HR size="1" noshade="noshade"><h3>Apache Tomcat/5.5.16</h3></body></html> Thanks, Jordi -----Mensaje original----- De: [hidden email] [mailto:[hidden email]] En nombre de Alessandro Vernet Enviado el: viernes, 15 de junio de 2007 12:13 Para: [hidden email] Asunto: Re: [ops-users] Client-side logging Hi Chris, On 6/14/07, Chris Bailey <[hidden email]> wrote: > I notice that when a javascript error happens, Orbeon display "Error while > processing response: XXX" in the top left of the page.

Jordi,
We are in the process of making displaying of Ajax and JavaScript errors much nicer. This should be in the nighly builds over the next few days, so stay tuned. -Erik Jordi Amatller wrote: > Dear Orbeon guys, > > Regarding this issue, I am getting errors like this one on top of the page > and I don't know if it is possible to show the html page defined in the > error message instead of the red text with all this message: > > Error while processing response: <html><head><title>Apache Tomcat/5.5.16 - > Informe de Error</title><style><!--H1 > {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;fo > nt-size:22px;} H2 > {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;fo > nt-size:16px;} H3 > {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;fo > nt-size:14px;} BODY > {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:black;background-color:white;} B > {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;color:white;background-color:#525D76;} > P > {font-family:Tahoma,Arial,sans-serif;background:white;color:black;font-size: > 12px;}A {color : black;}A.name {color : black;}HR {color : > #525D76;}--></style> </head><body><h1>Estado HTTP 500 - </h1><HR size="1" > noshade="noshade"><p><b>type</b> Informe de estado</p><p><b>mensaje</b> > <u></u></p><p><b>descripción</b> <u>El servidor encontró un error interno () > que hizo que no pudiera rellenar este requerimiento.</u></p><HR size="1" > noshade="noshade"><h3>Apache Tomcat/5.5.16</h3></body></html> > > Thanks, > Jordi > > -----Mensaje original----- > De: [hidden email] [mailto:[hidden email]] En nombre de Alessandro > Vernet > Enviado el: viernes, 15 de junio de 2007 12:13 > Para: [hidden email] > Asunto: Re: [ops-users] Client-side logging > > Hi Chris, > > On 6/14/07, Chris Bailey <[hidden email]> wrote: >> I notice that when a javascript error happens, Orbeon display "Error while >> processing response: XXX" in the top left of the page. > > Two things: > > 1) We could display the errors in a more end-user-friendly way.

That's great news :)
Just as a follow up for any interested parties, there is Log4JS (<http://log4js.sourceforge.net/>) which is modeled on Log4J, however I've found JSLog (<http://earthcode.com/blog/2005/12/jslog.html>) which provides a nice, simple and easy to use inline Javascript logging console. I also hear that the Google Maps API provides a GLog object which works in a similar way. However these are all client-side only solutions so I'll be eagerly looking forward to seeing the solution you guys develop.
