Upgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.5.x Issue

Hello,

I first tried to upgrade from 4.4.2 to the last stable release (4.5.7).
Following this upgrade even if everything looked going properly during upgrade, i wasn't able to create/modify a new task anymore.

The error message was "le champ 'mode de planification' est obligatoire". The sub-chapter of activity page, dealaing with "Workload stuff" is also not visible in the Activity creation/modification page. I guess there is an issue with planification or workloads.

Nore the planning gantt were accessible (empty white page).

I had a look on this topic: www.projeqtor.org/en/forum/10-feedbacks/...ing-to-4-5-3?start=6
which seems similar to my issue but i do not use sub-projects at all.


I finaly restored the v4.4.2 (everything went ok) and tried to upgrade to 4.5.0. I then get the same problem, that seems to confirm that issue is coming from planning calculation change from 4.5.X .....

I'm however unable to get out, do you have any idea where the issue could come from ?

Thanks

Could it be that affectation rate rules betwwen project and sub-project also applies betwwen task and sub-tasks ?

Indeed, I usually affect ressources , affectation and workload only to sub-tasks while my sub-tasks are classified into main parent tasks (with non ressources affectation). Is this behaviour allowed by projeqtor v4.5.X ?

Here below is the log file content during last upgrade from 4.4.2 to 4.5.0:

Thanks for your prompt feedback.

I then upgraded back to v4.5.7, Browser cache has bean cleared, but same issue is encountered.
I checked plannedwork table and it's not empty.

I found this error in apache logs:

[Tue Aug 04 15:14:11 2015] [error] [client 192.168.10.43] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function mb_substr() in /var/www/html/projeqtor/model/GeneralWork.php on line 247, referer: https://192.168.50.220:543/projeqtor/view/main.php

=> i'll check for package php-mbstring...

Ok my issue was coming form package php-mbstring that was not installed in my server.
Problem is now solved.

thanks
