No Credits Displayed #7

Closed dgoyette closed 12 years ago

dgoyette commented 12 years ago

I recall reading that the app should display user credits, but on my system, using Firefox or IE 9, there is no User Credits box. The only text box on the screen shows ...

Beam: ppbar Process: jets Energy: 1960 GeV Cuts: 17 Generator: pythia8 Version: 8.145 Tune: early

Events: 30000

Below this box is another box containing a text link to "LOGs". Then the remainder of the page, to the bottom, is blank - just the background image.

Should User Credits be displayed in the current version or not?

I don't know how relivent this is to the current VM that has been released but...

I took a look at this issue on the vbox project awhile back and found that the floppy block device was being treated as a read-only device by perl. This caused the readFloppy.pl script to error out as it wanted to read/write to the device for adjusting the contents to a JSON format.

I stopped investigating at that point as I thought it was intentional. I thought it was supposed to error out to prevent the backend system from getting confused about unknown authenticators and the like from the vbox project.

Thanks for your reply. I'll try the T4T project again at a later date.
