Hi Desmond,

Do you mean inside Mango, or for SSH?

In Mango, you can navigate to the /users.shtm page when logged in as admin and change anything other than the admin's username. To change the username of admin, either run something like this in the SQL console: UPDATE users SET username='Desmond' WHERE username='admin'; then log out and in or you can create another admin user as desired, then switch to them and either rename the admin user or remove it.

For SSH, the credentials provided have sudo privileges. There are many guides and answers around the internet for renaming Linux a user, but you could consider making a different Linux user, changing the default user's password using passwd and, if your interest is security, restricting SSH login to this possibly less privileged user (although this could prevent you from sudo access over SSH as well).

Everything looks good now!

Nope we're running all Windows 7 desktops. I guess it was something else I did.

Glad to be of help =)

What is your install path. I think the configuration file for the service is for C:\Mango if it's different you need to edit that before you install the service.

Hi Brian,

Can you try deleting your Mango/work/jsp folder and, if that does not resolve the issue, sharing with us any messages in the log when the page is loaded?

Yep, that is a tricky one that will likely be improved in our new UI in Mango 3.0. The reason Local devices are kept separate is that multiple data sources can use one local device. Thanks.

Glad to hear it!

To use a Numeric point you could have changed the XID to a numeric point (probably rename the point in the 'point' property of the ma-get-point-value) and you could use expressions like I have done with "limit" and "max" only using "binary.value" or whatever you rename it to in the point="binary" portion of ma-get-point-value

Hi Matt,

I have made 1.3.4 of the NoSQL database available. 1.3.3 should be abandoned quickly (the one I made available two days ago, for anyone who may have updated to it).
Thanks!

I have the original 2.5 amp powersupply for raspberry Pi3 , so shouldnt be the problem in this case.

I suspect this is a permissions problem with the user you are logged in as. 403 Responses are coded into the REST api when a user does not have proper permission. I would triple check that the user actually has the 'superadmin' permission.

If this is the case you should be seeing WARN level log messages in the logfile that look something like this:

Non admin user: <username> attempted to create user : <new-username>

The only other way to get a 403 from this endpoint is as Phillip suggested, you are either not logged in or the cookies were not set/stored properly when you did log in.

Hi Brad,

We have a standard set of instructions here: http://help.infiniteautomation.com/support/solutions/articles/14000022648-how-to-upgrade-mango

We did get the upgrade to work today so we will let that sit as is for a while before I start changing things again. We do get a few of these now:

High priority task: com.infiniteautomation.nosql.MangoNoSqlBatchWriteBehindManager$PointDataCleaner was rejected because it is already running.

Hi Craig,

To add to what Joel said, None level events are recorded in the database. Whether or not anything will appear in ma.log will depend on the Log4j configuration you are using, more likely.

We have just released a new version of the MangoNoSQL module that has finer grained purging. So basically you can now accurately purge down to a one day level. This setting is not enabled by default for periods larger than about 25 days but can be enabled by checking the Purge within shards checkbox on the System settings page in the Mango NoSQL Information area.

Excerpt from help file:

Purge within shards
This setting governs if the purge task will delete values from within a shard file. With this unchecked, purges are much faster because data is purged in whole shards as opposed to excising individual samples. If the purge period is smaller than a single shard (about 25 days), however, the data older than the purge configuration is deleted from all shards, regardless of this setting.

So I managed to figure something out, hopefully it won't mess with other stuff.. I modified maMaterialDashboards and removed Md-pickers, which was what was causing my problem.
Is there a way to just bypass all this and not call maMaterialDashboards? It won't load with just calling maDashboards in my app.js. I want to still be able to use mdAdmin if needed..

Hi espedair,

I suspect you got it as well. There is not a JSON version of the receiver at the moment, but it would be relatively easy to add. Generally you can use regex to get most values and you don't need the arbitrary nesting of JSON, but I'm sure we'll add it at some point.

To the questions you raised,

"The data point allows the 'Device Identifier Key' and Device Identifier ... Am I correct in assuming this is station_id and SP ?"
From the HTTP receiver help dialogue:
"The device ID is specified in the HTTP request with the parameter name __device (with two underscores)."

"There is nothing on the UI to allow me to define that time stamp I need is record_datetime ... Am I correct in assuming it will use the time of polling ?"
The HTTP receiver accepts timestamps, You can see the format of messages it likes the most by capturing outgoing messages from the HTTP Publisher (which the receiver is made to work with, but is general enough to work with other services POSTing or GETing data. The Retriever solves this problem for you as you're expecting.

"Does this mean that the "Set point URL" should be where I want the data to go in Mango ?"
The Setpoint URL will get an HTTP message from Mango if within that Mango someone sets a value to the point. In general "Point Locators" tend to describe where data goes (by identifying a point!)

Well, not exactly what I was looking.

How are the components created in the graphical view?

Also, are there any process control graphical widgets already built, rather than trying to spend a lot of time building these items?
