Causes and Fixes

Symptoms
The user follows the sequence of steps below and gets an error:

• 1. For a Waveform Log, select a date range to display. Click Show Table.
  

• 2. Click a waveform icon to display it in a graph.
  

• 3. Click the Show Table button on the graph display.

An error message shows up in the Internet Explorer status bar.

• 4. After this , click Change Data Range to go back to the date range table as below. Select another date and click the Show Table button to get the error:

Cause
Software thinks that this is a problem with the way the WebReach stylesheets handle inheritance passing node information along from one web page to the next. This workflow might take a path through the XML transformations that loses the Query node info. The error message indicates something wrong with the query WebReach is trying to execute.

Another cause of the error is that a * is used for the columns in a Data Log Viewer query in Enterprise 5.6. Vista is able to return the query properly, but Webreach will display the above error.



Resolution
If the problem is due to the Selected Columns field in the Query, then simply remove the * and replace it with each individual column.

Workaround
When viewing the table of waveforms, check the checkbox next to the waveform icon before proceeding to view the graph.



More Information
This has been observed on ION Enterprise 5.5 SP2 with the IE7.0 hotfix, Internet Explorer 7.0 and 6.0.
