Stable 2 series

dotProject

dotProject is an open source project management system written in PHP.

It originally started in 2001 by dotMarketing on SourceForge and has been under the watchful eye of the current dotProject team since around December 2002.

Installing/Upgrading

NOTE The devel branch is where all the development happens. If you want the latest and greatest with all relevent bug fixes between releases, then download from https://github.com/dotproject/dotProject/archive/devel.zip

master tracks the current release.

The Quick Way: Point your browser to the install directory.

Support

Support forums are at http://forums.dotproject.net/index.php

Bug reports and other issues can be lodged on GitHub at https://github.com/dotproject/dotProject/issues

IRC channel is irc://irc.freenode.net/dotproject on #dotproject on irc.freenode.net

License

As of version 2.0, dotProject is released under GPL. 1.0.2 and previous versions were released under BSD license. Parts of dotProject include libraries from other projects which are used and re-released under their original licence.

Docker composer support

The latest devel branch now includes a simple docker-compose.yml file and support files. These will allow you to run dotProject by running:

docker-compose up

This will set up an nginx container, a phpfpm container and a mariadb container and point the web server to the base directory of dotProject. All you need to do after that is point your browser to http://localhost/

docker-compose down will retain any data you have created. If you want to start again from a clean slate, use docker-compose down -v to remove the database volume.

dotproject's Issues

Character encoding

If we write "utf-8" in the "locales.php" file in the "en" directory. Gantt chart characters are not show correctly. Becuase jpgraphs "LANGUAGE_CHARSET" comparison is case-insensitive therefore we must be write "UTF-8" in "locales.php" file for show correctly characters in Gantt charts. In devel branch "locale.php" contain small case like "utf-8".

Problems logging in

Someone can help me, because I installed dotproject, but when the first log is done, the error below appears, but as soon as I ask to reload the page the system runs normal.
Someone can help me with this error.

Lost/Forgotten Password -- Appears to do a reset of password even though email fails

Hi.

In testing the app, did a lost password test. The app appears to have reset the password even though the app didn't complete the sending of the lost password email.

Might be worth having logic to allow a user/admin to "test" the smtp configuration process.

Project Designer throws error with php7: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'new' (T_NEW) in ...projectdesigner/vw_tasks.php on line 112

Hi Adam,
Just testing PHP7 during this migration - project designer is giving me the following error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'new' (T_NEW) in /data/srv/debortoli.private/dotProject.git/modules/projectdesigner/vw_tasks.php on line 112

It's not present with PHP5.4

Commercial support link dead, have a question?

Hi, am trying to evaluate the software. The wiki is blank and the support link is dead, so really not sure where else to ask my primary question?

Here's the question - as a freelancer, I work with multiple companies. What I want to do, need to do, is create a template for new clients, so the milestones and task lists can be easily copied for a new client.

At that point, I need to ensure the new client does NOT see any details of the projects for older clients, likewise I need to ensure older clients CANNOT see any details about newer clients and their projects.

I've found a "Make private entry" for contacts, but what does that do? I really don't want clients seeing each other's email addresses or details.

If I assign a project to a company, does that mean no 'contacts' can see that project, unless they are also assigned to the correct 'company'?

Thanks!

Wrong expected duration calculation

There is this calculation error. After I specify the starting/ending date and time for a given task, I click on "Duration" button. I get wrong calculated duration. The erroneous calculation happens only when calculating hours. The calculation is correct for days but not hours. I am not sure whether there an inherent mistake in the code or my configurations are wrong.
Please see the attached picture. The duration in the photo should be 4 hours and not 10 hours!
I hope there is a solution for this as there are some tasks that span across days.
Thank you.

JpGraph unknown color FFFFFF

There is an error on the gantt chart.

report pdf

In /lib/ezpdf/fonts/ files named "Helvetica.afm" and "Helvetica-Bold.afm", but dotproject search "php_Helvetica.afm" and "php_Helvetica-Bold.afm" therefore I changed files name. But
in this case pdf files like this :

or like this:

"PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'new' (T_NEW) in ........................................modules/projectdesigner/gantt.php on line 20"

We are using with PHP 7.3 and when select the ProjectDesigner from menu give this error : "PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'new' (T_NEW) in ........................................modules/projectdesigner/gantt.php on line 20"
and when we change line 20 with this "$project = new $CProject;" give a second error " php: PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'new' (T_NEW) in ..............................modules/projectdesigner/gantt.php on line 117" in this case we change line 117 with this "$task = new $CTask;" all is working but not draw ganttchart.

and give this error : "Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: Argument 1 passed to JpGraphException::defaultHandler() must be an instance of Exception, instance of Error given in ...................................lib/jpgraph/src/jpgraph_errhandler.inc.php:158 Stack trace: #0 [internal function]: JpGraphException::defaultHandler(Object(Error)) #1 {main} thrown in /home/e-smith/files/ibays/pmanagement/html/lib/jpgraph/src/jpgraph_errhandler.inc.php on line 158"

The "reset search" button is not working on "Contacts" menu.

There are two "reset search" buttons in dotProject - one at Companies and one at Contacts.
The one at "Contacts" doesn't work, on both branches (master and devel). Will do an attempt to fix that.

Good day

i need to know if there is a procedure to integrate my dotproject installation with gmail, what is the procedure to configure it or if it can just be used with ldpap, how it have to be configured.

dotProject is not working this morning . The response Ecolane people are getting is this site is not secure. It was fine last night

Speed problems: suggestions for targets to focus on?

Hi Adam,
We've been using our install for a long time (well over a decade?) and have amassed about 1600 projects.

We're finding that there are certain areas in dotProject are extremely slow, where the mysqld process maxes out a cpu core, and we have to wait for significant amounts of time for a return - I assume this is by and large as a result of the sheer quantity of projects that are dealt with during a query.

Examples:

1. Saving a task after Edit - 9-10s
2. Clicking the Tasks module in the top menu - 80s (and only returning 13 tasks)
3. Opening a project in Project Designer module - 9-10s

Now 2) is particularly bad, but can be avoided. 1) and 3) are what are most commonly used for doing cleanup/maintenance - ie times when you just want to duck in quickly and change a few things, but after doing this a few times, waiting for the saves feels like an eternity.

Do you have any recommendations on how/what we could do to start optimising some of these functions?

(@mattbell87 is potentially looking for some short and sweet tasks so this may be suitable for him to work on)

I had an idea (but I'm not a db guy, so it's likely terrible) that we could move all archived projects into a completely separate table that would exclude them from having to be considered in most queries - is that a possible/feasible option?

Possible Reporting Module?

Is there possibly a reporting module to see what projects are done and what are still outstanding?

Files module: 'Fatal error: Call to undefined function mb_strrpos()'

Hi Adam,
I'm looking at migrating our original install to new hardware, and I'm attempting to do it with a fresh checkout from this git repo.
I've copied over config.php, and all the files/[0-9]* dirs, but I'm getting the following error when I browse to the Files module:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function mb_strrpos() in /data/srv/debortoli.private/dotProject.git/modules/files/index_table.php on line 343

It occurs partway through the file listing on the page:

Can you help?

After install,there is a session error

after i install,there is a session error like this:

Import Files for order creation

Hello, I have a customer that uses dotProject for their construction company. They manually enter every order and PO#. They have multiple project management / accounting programs and wanted to know if they can import an Excel spreadsheet of an order (generated by another program) so that they do not need to manually enter the order / PO# every time? They are trying to cut down on work redundancy. Does anyone know if this is possible?

Handling of project costs

First of all: thanks for developing and maintaining this nice software.
Perhaps the issue of project costs is covered by the wiki but wiki is currently not available.
I can not find out how to properly manage and control project costs - I can only see the budget of hours.
My questions:
System Administration - Billing Code Table: What is a "Billing Code" and which meaning has the associated "Value"? Is it the hourly rate?
TaskLogs: What is the "Cost Code" and what is the value after "->"? I would expect it to be the "Value" from above but in my case a strange non-related is being taken here.
General: Where are the project costs (i.e. hours x hourly rates) being evaluated? I only find the total sum of hours. From my point of view the project costs and financial budget are of primary importance, not hours? Moreover - if there are different hourly rates of involved people, the total time is meaningless.
Why can I enter the project financial budget when there is no evaluation of the corresponding running project costs there?
Am I missing something?

I am installing dotProject on PHP 7. * and on setup it is stating that mysql driver is not supported by php, however, by searching the documentation, mysql support has been deprecated and now only supports mysqli.

Could you check?

The link where i get the information:
https://secure.php.net/manual/en/mysql.installation.php

Sorry by my bad english

dotproject tbl/schema question

Hi.

Doing a walk-through of the dotproject app. Looking through the logic and the db/tbl schema. Trying to determine which tbl has the relationship between the user/contact and the group (Anon/normal/etc..

Ie, if an admin assigns a role to a user, where is this relationship maintained within the tbls..

Any pointers.
thanks

2.1.9 upgrade, Projects module shows the number of projects in filter tabs, but "No projects available" to view

Hi Adam,
I'm testing the upgrade to v2.1.9 - for all our non-admin users, they are no longer able to get a listing of projects in the Projects module:

The filter tabs indicate correctly how many should be visible.

The permissions/roles haven't changed since our 2.1.8 deployment, and look like this (for this particular example):

The Project Worker role looks like:

Is there something I'm missing that's changed in the role?

Installation/Logging In/Running

Hi.

Did a "download/clone" of the latest dotproject code/project (nov18/2018).

Did the complete setup of the apache/mysql/docRoot dir.
-Copied the files, set the permissions/group/etc..

I get the http://1.2.3.4/dotproject -- which displays the user/login dialog (along with a * browser needs cookies msg)

When I insert the test user/passwd --- admin/pass -- I get a login err.

The /var/logs/httpd/test_log had the
[Mon Nov 19 10:59:27.933744 2018] [php7:warn] [pid 17531] [client 74.178.139.162:51898] PHP Warning: Declaration of LDAPAuthenticator::userId($username) should be compatible with SQLAuthenticator::userId() in /var/www/html/dotproject/classes/authenticator.class.php on line 362, referer: http://104.248.125.83/dotproject/

-but I corrected the userId function so this err msg is no longer being generated.

Any thoughts/comments??

Given this test is being run on a test cloud server.. I can provide complete access if required..

thanks

Limit user view

Hi!

Currently the user can see all the projects independently of the same being allocated or be responsible for only one project.

For example: I want my vendor to access the dotproject and update the status of the activities that are of its management and do not view the other projects.

How can I limit access to it only to what is your responsibility?

Edit Project appends visible <br /> tags to every line in the description, every time you save

Hi Adam,
I'm seeing this on my test instance

• v2.1.9
• php 7.0 - I've cherry picked the commit from #37 (9b64ca3)

Every time I edit a project and hit submit, every line of the Project Description gets a
tag appended - edit it a couple of times and it gets a lot of spacing, very quickly:

There is an error in /classes/CustomFields.class.php at line 644 that refers to trying to count the custom fields, however, when I go to the company registry page it displays the error below.

To fix it, I suggest the fix for the following code:
return ($this->fields)?count($this->fields):0;

Below is the screenshoot.

Setting the secure/email process for using gmail/smtp

Hi.

Trying to configure the test app to use gmail/smtp.

Gamil can use SSL/TLS

Server Address: smtp.gmail.com
Username: Your Gmail Address (e.g. [email protected])
Password: Your Gmail Password
Port Number: 587 (With TLS)
Alternative Port Number: 465 (With SSL)

Haven't been able to get the test app working to send test emails. If you have suggestions, feel free to post.

I've implemented the above, selecting TLS as well as SSL, - using the TLS checkbox.

Thanks..

Company Owner in Company module

The dropdown in the company owner box in the company module is not working. It only lists myself as the available owner.

Is there away to let me pick the name from the contacts list?

What login and password should I enter after installation?

Somewhere it was written that "admin" "passwd".
But it does not work

What login and password should I enter after installation?

On ticket creation (devel branch) it doesn't load the projects.

When creating a ticket (devel branch) it doesn't load the list of projects (no matter if we choose a company or not). That works on the main branch.

Future plans

I've been a dot project user since early 2005 and have written several custom modules for customers and personal use.

i havent had need for dotproject in several years and am now looking at it again for a custom module for customer use.

can you let me know the following please

1. is the dotproject team actively developing and fixing issues? is it staffed well or low on developers?

2. are there major revisions planned that would render new custom modules incompatible?

Thoughts on adjusting the git Repo layout so everything in dotproject/* is in the root dir instead?

Hi Adam,
It's a small thing, but since it's early days so I figured now is the best time to ask this question:

If there's no major architectural reason for using the dotproject/ subdir in the git repo, can you remove it altogether and move the contents into the root of the git repo?

The issue from my perspective is the following non-intuitive directorystructure on my server:
ls -l /srv/debortoli.private/dotproject/dotproject/

As I said, it's only a minimal issue, but if I'm going to ask, now is the time ;)

Thanks,
Bernie

Updating from 2.1.6 issues - Windows Server 2008 R2

• Based on Bitnami Wamp stack 5.4.17.0:
  • PHP 5.4.0
  • MySQL 5.0.10
  • Apache 2.4.0
• I tried several installations. First from my remote computer:
  • A clean install creating a new DB. Had some problems creating the DB.
  • Then I tried and upgrade by duplicating the current installation folder and updating the files over it. Again, had problems managing the DB, it wouldn't connect to it.
    Then, from the server itsefl (remote connection):
  • I could manage to upgrade the duplicated folder and I got in with admin user. That's the moment when user roles were gone.

Description field in email reminders being populated with content from wrong task

Hi @ajdonnison,
We have fairly regular occurrences of email reminders containing task descriptions from unrelated tasks:

Example below contains a description from an export product project, nothing to do with the actual task (who's description is actually blank):

start day of the week

I want to change the start day of the week

I accommodate the days in the system configuration but i can't see changes on the calendar

but when I add two or more people ony appear one image, can you help me to do this update? thanks

Discussion: Defining a Branch and Release methodology

Hi Adam,
I apologise if you've already got this covered, but I was hoping to discuss/define a Branching/Release methodology for this repository. Since there is currently no other branch than master, I'm assuming it either hasn't been considered, or your usual methodology hasn't been applied yet.

There's a lengthy article on the subject which we recommend here, but given that it's catering to much larger and more complex projects (in terms of number of developers with commit access), I figured that the following proposal would provide a functional model:

• Use two main branches, master and develop
• master is always production ready, so in our case would be the latest release (2.1.8?)
• the state of develop is however you want to define it
• releases should be tagged (git tag), ie every commit to master should increment the release version and another tag should be created. This allows users to switch versions with ease, and is a common method used (for example) by debian/ubuntu package maintainers working with git

What are your thoughts/what have you used in the past for this project?

Exporting and importing data

Is there a way to export and import the data from dotProject?

I have created huge amount of data in my local installation. I will like to export that and import into the installation in my web server. Is it enough if I export and import the database contents?
