Cats freezes/stops working when creating candidate

[scott1981]

I posted this in the forums but then I noticed that bugs were being reported here as well.

As of April 10th creating a candidate using Firefox or Chrome (have not tried the other browsers) causes the app to lock up, on both 0.9.1 and 0.9.2. I tested it on demosite and was able to reproduce it there too.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Go to http://www.opencats.org/test/cats/
2. Click Login to Demo Account
3. Click on Candidates Tab
4. Click on "Add Candidate"
5. The app freezes and you can't even click on any other tab.
6. Close the tab
7. Try to access http://www.opencats.org/test/cats/ on a new tab. It will not load.

I assume from the report that IE is unaffected?

I use Linux so I am unable to test it on IE. However it is server related as I installed 0.9.2 on an old Centos 5 using the following server settings and I can confirm that the problem does not occur.

General Information
Operating System: Linux pbx.localdomain 2.6.32-431.el6.i686 #1 SMP Fri Nov 22 00:26:36 UTC 2013 i686
Operating System Type: CATS thinks your operating system is UNIX.
PHP Version: 5.3.28
Database Version: MySQL 5.1.73
Installation Directory: /var/www/html/cats

Please let me know what other steps you need me to do. I own a VPS with Centos and another one with Ubuntu server (old and newer systems respectively). I am willing to do some testing. Thanks.

The quick fix is the edit your hosts file on the CATS server (usually /etc/hosts on Linux) and add the following:
127.0.1.1 soap.resfly.com

There are two calls to this hostname in the following files:
/wsdl/parse.wsdl
/wsdl/status.wsdl

The problematic url calls in the files above look like
http://soap.resfly.com/parse.php
and
http://soap.resfly.com/status.php

The URLs above appear to now be dead (or don't respond in a reasonable time). I don't think there are any side effects with these removed - I shall keep testing my systems to see if there are any issues that show up over time.

Great I am willing to test. I would also like to report other bugs for
0.9.1 Is this possible or is 0.9.1 no longer maintained?

Thanks.

Hi Joe,

0.9.1 is no longer maintained - please can you check if the errors are
reproducible on 0.9.2 and submit them as required!

These errors are present in 0.9.2

The fastest workaround for now is to edit hosts file. I think this also
needs to be taken out of the code as part of catsone cleaning.

Thanks.

Interesting that issue showed up this weekend, thanks for the quick workaround was going to look into it further tonight.

[RussH]

just t committed the fix - set refly parsing enabled to 'flase' in config.php.
