10 May 2013, Konstantin Olchanski, Bug Fix, Fixed: crash if alarm "write elog message" is enabled
|
If the MIDAS Alarm property "write elog message" is enabled, an uninitialized variable "tag" is passed to
el_submit() and depending on your luck, cause a crash. "tag" is supposed to be and is now a NUL-
terminated string. The only other use of el_submit() is in mhttpd.cxx and mserver.c, where it is called

26 Aug 2013, Konstantin Olchanski, Bug Fix, Enable cross-site requests in mhttpd
|
Javascript "AJAX" functions (and their MIDAS wrappers - ODBGet/ODBSet) are subject to something called
"same origin policy" intended to prevent something called "cross-site scripting attacks", i.e. see

25 Oct 2013, Konstantin Olchanski, Bug Fix, fixed mlogger run auto restart bug
|
A problem existed in midas for some time: when recording long data sets of time (or event) limited runs
with logger run auto restart set to "yes", the runs will automatically stop and restart as expected, but
sometimes the run will stop and never restart and beam will be lost until the experiment operator on shift

Yes. Of course runs will not be started/stopped when mhttpd is not running, but when you restart it gracefully continues where it stopped, since all variables |

16 Dec 2013, Konstantin Olchanski, Bug Fix, Abolished SYNC and ASYNC defines
|
A few months ago, definitions of SYNC and ASYNC in midas.h have been changed away from "0" and "1",
and this caused problems with some event buffer management functions bm_xxx().

15 Jan 2014, Konstantin Olchanski, Bug Fix, Fixed spurious symlinks to midas.log
|
In some experiments (i.e. DEAP), we see spurious symlinks to midas.log scattered just about everywhere. I
now traced this to an uninitialized variable in cm_msg_log() and it should be fixed now. K.O. |

15 Jul 2015, Konstantin Olchanski, Bug Fix, compiler warnings cleaned up

Latest C/C++ compilers (MacOS 10.10, GCC on RHEL7 and Ubuntu) generate a large number of new
warnings about unused variables, unused functions, dead code, failure to check return values of system
calls, etc.

13 Jun 2016, Konstantin Olchanski, Bug Fix, example ssl certificate removed
|
I removed the example ssl certificate from the midas git repository (ssl_cert.pem). Now every midas
installation must generate their own certificate - because to have any security at all each encryption
private key has to be unique (and it has to be secret).
