2.4 Release Notes

Article ID: 4295
Last updated: 11 Nov, 2010

These notes contain items that might be of interest to the Tech Support personnel as they support users who are upgrading to, installing, or using Q Local Release 2.4.

 

1)      Supported OS - The supported OS configurations for v2.4

a.        Windows XP sp3

b.       Windows Server 2003 Standard sp1

c.        Windows Vista sp2 32-bit and 64-bit

d.       Windows 2000 is dropped from support.

e.        Q-Local is scheduled to be fully supported on Windows 7 in the next release (version 2.5, currently scheduled for Spring, 2010). At this time, Q-Local is not officially supported on Windows 7. We have, however, conducted preliminary quality testing and our results indicate that Q-Local Version 2.3 and 2.4 are operable on Windows 7 once the following updates are applied.

 i.      SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3 -Visit http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=ae7387c3-348c-4faa-8ae5-949fdfbe59c4&displaylang=en

ii.      Update to the HASP report counter driver for Windows 7 - Visit http://www.aladdin.com/support/hasp.aspx

 

2)      New in 2.4

a.       MMPI-2-RF added 4 four new comparison groups:

 iii.      Bariatric Surgery Candidate (Men)

iv.      Forensic, Child Custody Litigant (Men)

 v.      Forensic, Child Custody Litigant (Women)

vi.      Personnel Screening, Clergy (Men and Women)

b.      The version of ScanTools Plus software used by Q Local has been upgraded to 7.2.

 

 

3)      Enhancements

a.       Install/Upgrade intelligence modified to load specific ScanTools version according to system OS – will install ScanTools v7.0 on Windows 2000 platform and will install ScanTools v7.2 on all other platforms (TT 6533).

b.      ITCH code was updated to address painting issues experienced by the users and the screens text was changed to be more users friendly.

c.       HASP ordering details have been more clearly captured in the Report Order logging (TT6523).

d.      Millon SLANG changes:

 i.            M-PACI – added noteworthy responses to Profile Report Summary in assessment Info

 ii.            MACI - added noteworthy responses to Profile Report Summary in assessment Info

 iii.            MCMI-III – minor changes in assessment information export list

 iv.            MBMD – Interp and Profile heading placement

 v.            MIPS – report copyright changed

 

 

e.       For retail network users a “terminal services error” hasp workaround has been restored in release 2.4 (TT 6544).

f.        In response to a field question the MAXIMUM data throughput over the network for any single Q-Local action is less than 1 megabyte.

g.       The patch applied to fix a memory leak in 2.3.17 is included in the 2.4 release (TT6472).

 

 

4)      Scanning

a.       ScanTron does not support scanning on 64 bit machines, therefore ScanTools with any OS on a 64 bit machine is not supported by Pearson, Inc.

b.      Error message scanning – Microsoft pushed an update that may cause an error message when trying to scan in Q-Local. The update created a dependency issue for which Microsoft does provide a patch called “vcredist_x86.exe” that may be downloaded from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=766a6af7-ec73-40ff-b072-9112bab119c2

**Microsoft licensing does not allow Pearson to redistribute this patch.

Scanning will not launch - not dependent on OS or installation method
If scanning is installed - go to any of the options to scan a new batch. Click on the Begin Scanning button. A message box opens (see attachment). ScanTools will not launch. The log does not contain any useful information. There is no pattern related to OS, hardware, installation type, network or solo version. I will work with Dave to debug

<On-Screen Administration Summary> window on Vista is blank (empty) after completing an on-screen assessment
After completing an on-screen assessment, the &amp;lt;On-Screen Administration Summary&amp;gt; window comes up, but it is entirely blank. Vista is not always painting this window (you are able to click on about where the buttons would be in the window and the button appears and functions correctly...see screenshot). The only way to exit the window is to click the [X] button in the upper-right corner.

This does not always occur and is not specifically reproduceable, but I have seen this a few times now. (see attached screenshot)

5/31/07 - Saw this same issue on the &amp;lt;Home&amp;gt; screen...see attached screenshot for visual.

[Note 06/13/2007 -- EAV]

For some reason the UI is not being painted, but it remains responsive. If you know where the buttons are, you can click there and they work as they should. (The above statement that you can only exit via the Close Box in the upper right is incorrect). You can also force the window to repaint by dragging it off-screen and then back, or (in the case of the homepage) by minimizing it and then restoring it.

[Note 06/13/2007 -- EAV]

Chad and I have been trying to find a way to reliably reproduce this, but it is maddeningly inconsistent. I have seen the homepage glitch on the QA test machine. For a while I could reproduce it there by turning on security, creating a new user with admin privliges, then logging out and logging back in as that user. However, it would only work the first time I tried it after a fresh install, and the same steps did NOT produce the glitch when I tried repeatedly on another test instance (a VMWare machine on my workstation).

Meanwhile, I was able to reproduce the OSA Summary window glitch on my VMWare machine several times in a row by administering a BSI-18, and clicking the "Next" button on the final screen that says the administration is complete. The glitch would only show up if I reached the OSA Summary Window in this fashion, never if I got there using the CTRL-E key combination. However, I can not reproduce the glitch at all on the QA machine, and when I tried the same steps again on my VMWare machine at a later time they no longer produced the glitch.

I suspect that the cause of this issue lies either deep in the window toolkit of our JRE (which presently is 1.5.0_11) or in Windows Vista itself. At this time the only approach I can come up with is to add some redundant calls to try and forcibly repaint the window, and see if we continue to encounter this behavior.

Cannot address in 2.2 based on the information we have to go on. Reassigned to 2.3.

Iowacpat1: stop and restart MTxReportServer
MTxreportServer has become non-responsive twice since we changed to newer hardware for Iowacpat1. The server appears to be running from both JRUN and the Windows services but hangs if you try to place an order through Q Local. We have choose to work around this issue by adding a weekly job that automatically stops and restarts the Report Server. This should solve the problem.

Change/Defect
Report Ordering logging is incorrect
Logging of any type of usage order must include the order start, hasp contents, order end, and hasp contents regardless of any cancellation or invalid TIC exchange.

I believe in the Java rewrite, we also included the account number. Add that to the list above.

1. The system shall log any and all attempts to order usages.
2. The system shall timestamp all events and object dumps
3. The system shall encode all object dumps in base64
4. In cases where an order is completed, the system shall distinguish between phone and internet orders
5. The system shall log the beginning of any and all attempts regardless of error conditions
6. The system shall log the hasp contents at the beginning of any and all orders
7. The system shall log the order line items regardless of the overall order success or errors accessing the HASP
8. The system shall log information about all unsuccessful logging attempts, including an invalid TIC code.
9. The system shall log the account number and suffix of the HASP receiving the report usages.
10. The system shall log the hasp contents after the order exchange is complete.
11. If any errors occur in accessing the HASP, the system shall log the error details such that any tech support person can determine what happened.

7/22 wrl
The start of the order is considered to be whenever the user gets past the terms and conditions screen.
Event codes:
public static final String URO_EV_INTERNET_ORDER_START = "URO_EVENT_001";

public static final String URO_EV_INTERNET_ORDER_FINISH = "URO_EVENT_002";

Validate Scanning & interface with the Insight20 scanner, Include in the test plan 2.4 version validated Insight20 Scantools did not interfere with other versions/scanners
New scanner: Insight20 added to the list of supported scanners

May need to update Scantools link SDK to the newest version to be compatible.

===============================================
From Gary Therens, 5/27/2009:

- Support the iNsight 20 on Windows XP and Vista (but not Vista 64bit)
- Modify the installer to install the latest scantools on XP and Vista and the older scantools on Windows 2000. This will allow Windows 2000 users to continue to use the older Opscan and iNsight scanners

Initial delivery of the split installer will install 7.0 ScanTools Plus Link Runtime and 2.3 version of QLocalScan.exe on Windows 2000, and 7.2 ScanTools Plus Link Runtime and updated QLocalScan.exe on all other platforms (including Vista 64 bit). If testing reveals that things really do not work on Vista 64 bit, we may need to adjust this plan.

Need to support upgrade paths from both 2.3.17 and 2.3.18
We have two '2.3' field releases of Q Local. Most customers received a version with an identifier of '2.3.17', however the Processing Center received a version with an identifier of '2.3.18'.

We must make sure to support upgrade paths from both 2.3 flavors in the 2.4 release.

Change/Defect
InstallShield tries to install BOTH versions of ScanTools in an upgrade scenario when scanning is not already installed.
InstallShield continues to show its magnificent ability to suck in the following upgrade scenario:

1) User installs any pre-2.4 version of QLocal WITHOUT the Scanning Solution.
2) User upgrades to 2.4.
3) InstallShield decides, all on its own, that both the Windows 2000 and non-Windows 2000 versions of the scanning solution should be installed, and attempts to install both of them.
4) The attempt to install the Windows 2000 flavor of the scanning solution fails, since the necessary install files don't exist on the system.

Change/Defect
Terminal Services workaroud for HASP no longer functioning
Prior to the release of QLocal 2.3, a Network customer could do the following:

1) Install Client on Machine A.
2) Install Database and HASP Server on Machine B.
3) Use Terminal Services to access Machine A from a remote location.
4) Use the Client on Machine A to access the HASP connected to Machine B via the HASP server.

In this way, a customer could get around the Aladdin restriction which prevented communication with a HASP via Terminal Services.

With the release of QLocal 2.3 and the migration to Aladdin's Java-based API, this process fails at step (4) because the Aladdin API throws a 'Terminal Services' exception when trying to locate a local HASP on Machine A, thus blocking QLocal from proceeding to check for a remote HASP. The solution is to trap the exception in HaspCtrlRMIImpl.getCache() and allow QLocal to continue on to try to find a remote HASP.

If we ever release QLocal 2.4, we will do this.

Cannot recover from entering incorrect TIC code
When ordering report usages over the phone, if a user orders an incorrect TIC code on her first attempt, all subsequent attempts to enter a TIC code (including a correct one) will fail. Workaround is to back out of the Confirm Order screen and then go forward again.

Q Local Installer runs install not modify/delete when Q Local is installed
From Vista HP When Q Local is installed and the Q Local setup is run (from the QDeploy or the setup App) the install menu is brought up not the modify/delete options.

The installer will not allow installation because it detects C:\Program Files\Pearson\Q Local 2\QLocalDB.mdf

The installer should give the modify / delete options when it is run.

This was a registry issue and will be closed unless it can be duplicated.

This was tested on two different PCs and with different assessments, with valid and invalid assessments. The reports were printed, sent to screen and saved to a folder. Tested on XP. If the Score and Report is used to print a scanned assessment the Item Responses do appear. The error appears only when the assessment is scanned when Auto Report on Scan is set in Preferences.

BASI PDD needs to show correspondence between VO_WM_PERF and TABLE1_ROW2_PERF - and others
When I try to figure out what SLang variable in the SLang table corresponds to a particular Export label, for some of the variables, I get referred to the XML file. A specific example is trying to figure out what SLang variable is associated with the VO_MC_PF export label. The Common Export Order table associates it with the VO_WM_PERF SLang variable, but it doesn't associate it with the TABLE1_ROW2_PERF SLang variable.

The XML file is an implementation of the PDD specification, so referring to the XML file is circular.

These references are needed to implement the Export Headers tests which set the SLang variable and then check the corresponding Export variable.

There are a few dozen? of these references missing in the PDD. This TT item is intended to cover all of them.
-------------
Made changes to the following PDDs: BASI1A, 2A, 3A, 4A and made notes to the BASI 1B, 2B, 3B, 4B, and Common PDD to refer them to the correct place in another PDD to find this information. Diffed each PDD. Ready for peer review. 03/13/09 rts

Upgrade to SQL Server Express SP2
We currently ship SQL Server Express 2005 SP1. Customers are increasingly getting SSEE SP2 on their machine, and they are also getting the SP1 components upgraded to SP2 through some process we still do not understand.

We should consider switching to SSEE SP2 in the next release. This would involve packaging the SP2 executable, testing compatibility with SP1, normal regression testing, and testing various upgrade scenarios. We need to retain all current functionality with respect to backups/restores and upgrading from MSDE-based Q Local releases.

Installer fails to configure db after SSEE installation
Some Q Local installations don't complete because the server doesn't start up quickly enough after it gets installed.

In the normal scenario, the SSEE installer is supposed to start up the server right before it exits.

Right after the SSEE installer exits, our installer tries to access the server to do the configuration.

This has caused problems in the past because the server can take a while to start up, and sometimes when it tells us that it is started, it doesn't stay started. We have a very defensive piece of code that checks the status and only tries to do the configuration if we see a stable state.

On some machines, it takes a long time to start the server. This is usually caused by an underconfigured machine or a very cluttered startup list. So on some machines, it looks like we should wait a little longer and insist on a stable "running" state rather than any stable state.

1. Change the installer so that it waits for three "start" states in a row. It will also stop waiting after about 30 - 40 seconds if it hasn't seen "start" three times in a row.

2. Change so that if the wait loop exits and the server is in the "stop" state, try to start the server.

Q Local should give better error message when language is not English
If a user changes their Language setting (Control Panel) to anything that produces something different from 'en' when executing Locale.getDefault().getLanguage(), Q Local will fail the db version check during startup.

This is because MTx_Code has a language_id column that we don't appear to use. It might have been an artifact of an aborted intent to internationalize Q Local long ago.

The result is that customers around the world who get Q Local installed by using the English US version of the Microsoft OS will run into this problem with their local language setting.

When the user tries to run Q Local, they get a message telling them that the database version could not be determined.

This error message should be changed to something that tells them that their language setting needs to be English (United States).

Title: Q Local System
Message: Your language setting is: frncais (France).
Some features of Q Local might not work properly with this setting.
Please use the Control Panel/Regional and Language Options to set
your language to English (United States) while running Q Local.

Edit Quickview FAQ in Assessment Information

Update MTQ to Q Local or take out platform name altogether. This occurs in the last line of the FAQ.

"Can I administer just one segment of the Quickview inventory?
What type of report do I get when I administer just one part?
Does it take two MTQ Quickview usages to administer both parts?

The Quickview Social History consists of two segments: the Basic segment, which contains 130 items and the Clinical segment, which contains 105 items. You can administer just the Basic segment and generate a Basic Report, or you can administer both the Basic and the Clinical segments and generate the Clinical Supplement Report. Only one MTQ usage is required, regardless of which report you print."

Changed hasps on Step 1 of ordering reports and got generic Error message - log indicates a problem
My test case required that I change hasps while step 1 was open. It allowed me to click Next and presented the you didn't order anything message. I clicked OK and it presented the generic Error message. Log indicates that new Hasp was not recognizable / Q Local app didn't know how to respond meaningfully. According to Dave this change is because of new logging that was added. I could click OK and get out so it is not a showstopper.

The profile report also includes Noteworthy Responses that help provide clues for follow-up interviews based on individual item responses. As with the interpretive report, this report can help give administrators a picture of the individual’s personality and behavioral concerns.

When a machine goes to sleep it stops the Q Local process that runs the HASP server
If a machine is set up as a HASP server without a client on it and the machine goes to sleep mode, it will turn off the Q Local process that runs the HASP server.

This should not be an issue, in the field a HASP server should not be set to go to sleep mode.

If this does happen the work around is to simply start the process with the batch.

Question
Q Local 2: Question about info in About Our Assessments - MBMD
nlm 4-26-07/in 'About our Assessments -&amp;gt; MBMD -&amp;gt; FAQ's' and I saw this:

Why does my interpretive report look so different when I send it to a WordPerfect file?
Users of the MBMD Interpretive Report should anticipate differences in the look of this report when it is sent to a WordPerfect file rather than printed directly from this software. The interpretive report was designed with distinct paragraph headers which are actually graphic boxes inserted between the paragraphs of the report. When the report is sent to a WordPerfect file, the graphics lose their positioning on the page. The interpretive statements are correct in the WordPerfect files; only the formatting of the report is lost.

I'm wondering if we still need this info now that we use PDF format?
