To help you in the use of InCrEG LibertyLook, here are a collection of questions. They are part of the Support Requests in SourceForge.net.

 

I haven't received a mail to install it. What can I do ?

First, there are no more register file.

There were used to be one when InCrEG was licensing the program : The file was a license file. Now, it isn't necessary any more.

 

What is the password ?

The password is given in the user manual. The default password in the software is MDP

You may modify it from the Administration / Logins menu

 

How to use the software in a network?

The use in a network environment may be done through 2 means :

  1. You use IP address that aren't routed (192.168.0.xxx). So there is no security risk : The application will only be accessed through the local network.
  2. You use other IP or domain name. The application may be accessed from Internet or another network. So for security reasons, a Basic Authentication is needed at the Apache server level. This configuration have to be done manually because the application doesn't handle it. The software only verify that the use is authenticated in that way.

 

How to migrate the database from the platform before the release 4 to the platform release 4.0b2 and above?

A concrete migration of the database is needed because of the change in the PostgreSQL database which doesn't bring an up compatibility with record including carriage returns. The fact is that if you have customers with an address on several lines, you have the problem. So the restoration process stops and you lose a big part of your data. The migration has to be done.

Up to now, the only way to proceed is to manually convert the database. For technical information, the process is the following one :

 

1) Manually save the previous database in a non compressed format : pg_dump -U Manu salon > BaseToMigrate.sql or institut depending on the case

 

2) Replace the carriage returns (^M\) by \r and join the lines in the backup file. With vim, the following do the job :

 

/^M\\$

:map ^A nC\r^[gJ

:map ^B ^A^B

 

3) Manually restore in the new base: Create the empty database with the following process :

 

initdb -D c:/InCrEG/Base

pg_ctl -D c:/InCrEG/Base start -w

psql template1

create user "Manu" with password 'Manu' createdb;

\c template1 Manu

create database salon with encoding='latin1'

\c salon

 

4) Import the file with psql -U Manu -f BaseToMigrate.sql salon or institut depending on the case

 

You may proceed with an export with insert commands to the database (insteed of the steps 1 et 2) : pg_dump -U Manu -d salon > BaseAMigrer.sql

On loading, warnings appears to warn about the misuse of the carriage return, but finally data are correctly imported.
