Setting enable_dashboard = true prevents the experiment from running #506

Closed flxsosa closed 3 years ago

flxsosa commented 3 years ago

When setting enable_dashboard = true in the config.txt on Psiturk v3.2.0, the experiment doesn't run locally or remotely on Heroku. Locally, after running debug, the experiment page persistently loads and never returns anything. Remotely, after running debug, Heroku returns an application error stating the worker timed out.

Commenting out enable_dashboard = true to ;enable_dashboard = true fixes the problem.

Check your logs (heroku logs, server.log) to see what's being thrown.

Thanks for mentioning that. It turns out that I'm missing the secret_key variable as well. But the documentation doesn't mention this nor what value it should be set at. Do you know how this should be set?

I answered my own question -- you can set the secret_key to any value you find satisfactory.

It would be good if the documentation could be updated to note that you need to set secret_key as well as login_pw and login_username in order for the dashboard to work. Currently it only says you need login_pw and login_username.
