Remove unused Views

[athes]

Dear Mikhail,

I want to remove the unused views from my project.
If I try to delete entries from ‘Interface’ table, I receive the

‘Some rows have not been deleted because they are referenced.’

error message. Where should I delete first and what is the right delete order?

(I assumed: 1. Configuration Database / System / Interface table, 2. Interface folder in Administrator, 3. Interface folder on disk ?)

Hello,

First, you should delete from the Rights table. Then from the Interface table.
When you delete from disk, there is no reference check.

Working fine, thank you.

Hello Guys,

It is an older topic, but I would like to refresh it.

I use the SCADA Version 5.8. The migration was sucessful and the communication with all lModbus devices work percfect.

My problem is, when I open localhost/scada, I get old views in spite of the fact, that I changed everything (Rights, Interfaces etc…) I have deleted all DemoViews, but they always appear.

In the Interfaces table I’ve defined the directory C:\SCADA\Projects\MyProject\Interface and all views I have in this directory.

It seams SCADA takes the views from any directory I can not finde.

What should I change/clean? I’ve deleted the history of the browser.

Thank you in advance

Regards
T.

Hello,
Please provide links to the screenshots of the Interface table and old views.

Hello Mikhail,

I have two schreenshots and hope you will be able to open them. The first one is the Overview, where you can see the old views incl. the demo views (which I have deleted) and the second one is the current Interface table.

Hello Mikhail,

One additional information: in spite of the fact, that I have defined in the Interfaces table all new views (C:\SCADA\Projects\Project_name\Interface), when I start http://localhost/scada the views from C:\SCADA\Interface and not from C:\SCADA\Projects\Project_name\Interface will be shown (incl Demo).

[Mikhail]

Hello,
The web application loads the list of views from the configuration database.
May be if you restart the computer, it will reload data and forget about deleted views.

Also please check C:\SCADA\ScadaWeb\log\ScadaWeb.log
It can contains useful info about errors.

[Mikhail]

Also try to upload the project again. Then logout and login the web app.

This is the part of C:\SCADA\ScadaWeb\log\ScadaWeb.log

Hello Mikhail,

I created a new project and uploaded the configuration again and everything works.

Thank you

[Mikhail]

Hi,
Likely, it was cached somewhere.

Hello Mikhail,

There is one thing I still don’t understand. There are two directories with Interfaces:

C:\SCADA\Interface

and

C:\SCADA\Projects\MyProject\Interface

In the “Interface” table I have defined C:\SCADA\Projects\MyProject\Interface, and I edit the views from this directory, but when I start http://localhost/scada, the views from C:\SCADA\Interface will be shown.

The question is, where is this defined?

Regards
T.

Hi,

When you work on your project, you change files in C:\SCADA\Projects\MyProject\
When you click upload project to the server, the files are copied from the project directory to C:\SCADA\ and into C:\SCADA\Interface too

In general, your server can be remote.
