CodiMD error (since 1.4.0?)

[nebulon]

This looks like one of the built-in templates fails. Did you by any chance added/removed/adjusted values in /app/data/config.json?

The default values are:

{
  "production": {
    "allowAnonymous": false,
    "allowAnonymousEdits": false,
    "allowEmailRegister": false,
    "allowFreeUrl": true,
    "allowPdfExport": false,
    "debug": false,
    "defaultPermission": "private",
    "email": false,
    "sessionSecret": "<secret>"
  }
}

Possibly. I’d need to check. To complicate things, it still works on mobile currently.

[yusf]

What differs in my config is
allowAnonymousEdits": true instead of false
documentmaxlength": 1000000 instead of whatever default is.

Default settings makes no difference, neither a fresh install.

The published read-pnly version of a doc works, still. It's the editor view that crashes.

I've tried in Firefox (macOS), Safari (macOS) and Safari (iOS).

@yusf said in CodiMD error (since 1.4.0?):

allowAnonymousEdits": true

I have this set to true as well and for me the app continues to work after the 1.4.0 update.

So do I understand that right that even if you install the app completely new you still have the crashes of the editor? Did you reinstall to the same domain? I would use a new domain name just to rule out a caching issue (and also try to open the editor in incognito mode).

Yes. New domain, fresh browser session, still Internal Server Error.

[yusf]

@fbartels Do you have any other customizations?

[nebulon]

@yusf just to be on the same page, you are installing codimd from your Cloudron's appstore view, not building the app on your own or so?

[yusf]

@nebulon Correct, it’s the regular App Store version.

[yusf]

Please advice

[fbartels]

@yusf sorry don't know enough about node and codimd development to give any additional insight. Maybe the codimd issue tracker in GitHub would be able to give more insights?

[yusf]

@fbartels Thanks, I'll bring it up with them.

[yusf]

Huh. "Them" turned out to be confusing:

Currently, there are two active repositories/softwares named "CodiMD": This one and codimd/server. Both are actively maintained, but by different people. Especially for someone new to CodiMD/HackMD it's almost impossible to understand what's what.

From reading other issues it seems like HackMD is making some structural changes which prompts Cloudron to make a choice which project to use. codimd/server is the "libre" and AGPL continuation of the project so probably favorable.

@yusf Does this error happens only when opening a specific document or all the time? Not really sure how to debug this, can you ping me on chat?

[yusf]

@girish I got help in tracking the issue down. A typo in the language file for my specific language caused the error. Not sure when I get a fix for it though. I’ll probably build it manually with the fix for now.

[girish]

@yusf Is there a related github issue ?

[fbartels]

@girish https://github.com/codimd/server/issues/117

[yusf]

Can you make a new release? @girish

[girish]

Yes, but 1.4.1 isn't released yet.

[yusf]

@girish Oh, okay then!

[girish]

CodiMD was updated to 1.5.0. So this issue is most likely fixed there.
