Yes, our thoughts are with Jacque in these deeply troubling times. Stay safe…

Craig, just checking that the sessionLengths is a multi-line string rather than an array?

The way I've used server is as pure middleware between the outside world and the database directly; I have it on a linux server running nginx rather than apache and its job is to manage calls received from http calls to .lc files. LC Server then directly interacts with a MySQL instance on the same s...

API updated to address a number of bugs, including PBKDF2 implementation , rate-limiting function for incorrect logins and error handling in CRUD operations PBKDF2 now fully implemented with 10,000 bitwise operations, as LiveCode does not implement PBKDF2 natively and this needed to be created manua...

DigitalOcean droplets (virtual machines) start at $6/month. I beefed up mine a bit (more storage, more CPUs) and pay something like $15/month. This is basically a linux (virtual) machine I ssh into, and installed nginx web server, LiveCode server (with Claude AI's help, because installing server rem...

I am using a fork of the community version, that has an ARM build, and the dbmysql.bundle file is four years after the community version. My point still stands - you may want yo check if you can replicate with 9.6.3 if it will run in Rosetta and assuming you can launch it in your current OS. The fa...

I had a look at the FreeDB.tech. There is nothing to see though, no details about the service (other than pricing) seem to included on the website without creating an account. After creating a test account out of curiosity I could see its MyPHP driven interface. You don't get root access which impli...

I’m running v8 and am not aware there is a version issue for the driver, although may be wrong - I haven’t tried with community version so can’t say for sure… Are you trying to connect on localhost/127.0.0.1 or a remote IP? SSL shouldn’t come into it if running in local, and connecting remotely shou...

Out of interest, what are you using to develop the web app? Hi Mark, I’m using Xojo for the web app. I’m not particularly enamoured with the language but it’s usable and where I get stuck Claude AI helps. And the results with Web are much nicer than what I could achieve out of the box with LC. I di...

I would just be wary that this isn't a corruption but a bug in the OP's code.
If it is a bug, it should recur.

If this reproducibly happens again, then make sure you're code isn't assigning grade to an empty key or some such.

Hi, My dg has just 2 columns and 12 lines of data, all visible when clicking on the third icon from left in inspect mode. and with colours assigned under the sixth icon from the left. The problem is that when in operating mode none of the data is visible. I can edit the data (that remains invisible...

Hi all, I thought this may be of help/interest for some. LiveCodeServer-database-API is a database-agnostic API with industrial security, and can be adapted to any project. Using Server, you can do all database operations over HTTP using RPC (remote procedure call) rather than REST, which seems a mo...

Meanwhile, thanks to a friend, I discovered Claude AI. ... This is the tool I wish I had: LC and good integration with an AI. ... Agree 100% on Claude, t's pretty amazing being able to grapple with any language and sort out server & SSL issues in minutes rather than the weeks it would have taken me...

The point wasn’t the Pascal. For me it was how an extremely successful platform fell from grace and why… I see many parallels in many current platforms that are slowly going the way of the dodo… or at the very least the way of Lazarus… the actual language used doesn’t enter in to it.

Some of us may find this interesting, and possibly see some parallels in other RAD environments:
