dotProject 2.1.6 now released

There is now a new version of dotProject available over on SourceForge. This version cleans up quite a few issues that had sneaked in over time.  Some of the wierdness in the 2.1.5 install has been addressed, so upgrades should be much more functional.

A lot of input from the community has been incorporated, including some great localisation fixes from the Brazillian dotProject community.  Those guys and gals always provide inspiration, and I'm truly sorry that our timezone differences make online meetings a problem.

There seems to be a lot of activity in the community at the moment, and it all is to the betterment of the project.

Hello,
great stuff, you did a great job.
How about existing translations in 2.15. Are there any restrictions while running the update to 2.16 with existing translations?

sincerely

Hi Roderich,

Translations are unaffected, although the coverage for translations is now greater so that the translators will be able to provide a better result with this release.

Good evening, trying the dotproject looks very interesting, some fine work. I have a ms project 2010, I went to the import project add on, casey says he nolonger supports dotproject. Is there some other way to import ms project files that i am missing?

Thanks

MikeW, I had thought that the importer was under an open source license, in which case you should be able to request an earlier version that is compatible with dotProject, and get or pay someone to maintain a fork.

We’re looking forward to implementing the upgrade, but always have tweaks and changes we require to make it work for us. Will the github respository be updated to include this new version, as this would make integrating our changes easier?

Looks very good and definitely a big improvement. Only on the translation side I have a show-stopper. I’ve installed the German files from 2006 (are there any new once?). Working with the in-build translation function will repeating delete ALL translations, even if you have not changed anything, just by pressing submit. This is with a new installation. Any ideas?

what is the default password for ‘admin’? i cannot login to the system after installing and it kept prompting ‘FAILED LOGIN’

Simon,

We are currently looking at GIT repos, but we are likely to simply convert the SVN repo to GIT on SourceForge rather than yet another external repo.

andreas24th, that issue was resolve recently and certainly in the 2.1.7 release.

bob, the default admin password is ‘passwd’. You should, of course, change that as soon as you have installed and configured.
