@theopenem_admin I'll try these one at a time and report back. Thank you!

The errors in Event Viewer are pretty much constant, with over 40 per second. They're accompanied by failed scheduled tasks, and this in the logs:

@theopenem_admin The issue is back, unfortunately, it just took a couple days to show up again. I set innodb_buffer_pool_size=10GB, and it is using 5.2GB of memory. Should it be using that variable's worth of memory?

The results of show processlist; in MariaDB are here.

@theopenem_admin This solved the issue, thank you!

Hello!
I have an install of Theopenem at a school system with five com servers in a cluster and 4178 endpoints. Every morning from around 7:45-9, it becomes unusably slow, with weird errors and access denied pages. After this period every morning it's fine, with everything checking in and responding normally. Digging into the logs, MariaDB is having a fit, giving this "too many connections" error up to around a dozen times per second. Is there anything I can do to lighten the load on the database? What causes this?

I created a super basic implementation of a self-service portal using the API, it works in a pinch but I wouldn't use it in production without heavy improvement. Mostly just curiosity about what's possible with the API

I did some digging and it appears bootType is being incorrectly detected as legacy, so the script is formatting the drive as MBR. $env:firmware_type contains the correct value, EFI. I found that the boot type is determined using Confirm-SecureBootUEFI, interpreting a failure to run as legacy boot. This system does not support secure boot, causing Confirm-SecureBootUEFI to crash, although it does use UEFI. Is there a reason Confirm-SecureBootUEFI is used instead of $env:firmware_type for the boot type?

I'm having issues deploying an image onto a specific device model, other devices are fine. It seems to be a problem with partitioning, but I can't figure out why.

I'm trying to download the update for 1.5.6, but it's being detected as a virus by my machine. VirusTotal isn't happy about it either: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/1f6cc11bec13944ab4a15a860f3bdf6388781e6acb144de41069f52cb883a4de/details

Is this the correct file? I checked previous versions and they do not have the same warnings. What changed that's triggering all these AVs?

mzprays

@mzprays https://docs.theopenem.com/changelog/version-history.html#154-6-2-23 ah, nevermind

mzprays

I found this, is there another way to access the help?

mzprays

@theopenem_admin Was this added in a release? I'm running into the same problem. I'm unsure how to script a condition as well, where can I find that?

mzprays

Nevermind, it fixed itself.

Just installed a new instance of Theopenem, and after getting through the setup process, I'm not seeing the "i" icon in the top right of each page with the documentation. In the HTML, it's there, but commented out, and uncommenting it and clicking it does nothing. Did I miss something in the setup process? I went back and checked all the steps.

Yeah, thought it might be good to point out. The documentation on that page also says nothing about the uploads right there, it actually points to a file copy module.

mzprays

@theopenem_admin That worked, thank you! I didn't know I could reference files uploaded there like that, I tried .\ and it didn't work.

2022-10-04 17:22:00,469 ERROR [4] PolicyRunner DESKTOP-S73CSJ1\Administrator - Aborting Current Policy

And if I run the command it says it is running:

C:\Users\Administrator>cmd.exe /c  "C:\Program Files\Toec\AppData\2eb9ecc7-db9c-434e-b824-aa7b9cb4ff22\Check-Ins-Setup-1.10.0.exe" /S
'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

It looks like it is failing because of the space in Program Files not being properly escaped. Is there a fix for this?
