Q3 2010 Bug or Change?

[Richard]

Hello,

I installed the Q3 update this morning and I am getting the below error now.  After some investigating, I found that it is because my StartDate and EndDate values were set to the same date and time (I am running on converted data so the dates and times were set the same...i.e. 08/25/2005 08:30 AM for both start date and end date).  When the scheduler tried to display this on the screen it gave the error.  The previous release seemed to handle this scenario ok.  It's not a big deal for us since I know the solution and we can set our data up properly.  But I wanted to make sure to point it out if this is indeed a new bug with the Q3 release.

Thanks!

Hi Richard,

Thank you for reporting this to our team.
This should most definitely be a bug, so we are going to log and schedule it for fix.

Please, set the duration of the appointments bigger then 0 (as you said) as a workaround for now!

Your telerik points are updated!

Nice one Richard. I just ran into this and could have spent a fair while looking into the cause if you hadn't figured it out already!

Regards,

Jon

Richard...thanks for the post.  I too ran into this problem.  However, my startdates and enddates do not have the same value.  I was able to isolate the problem to the setting EnableExactTimeRendering="true".  Once I set the value to FALSE, I was able to generate the page again.

Agreed, nice catch Richard. Thanks

[Jesse Lawler]

I'm experiencing this problem, but have no identical Start/End times, and I have set EnableExactTimeRendering="False".  Are there any other known things I can do to avoid this error?  Thanks!

Hello Jesse,

Could you, please, explain in a bit more detail what exactly is the issue you are experiencing?
Please, provide some code reproducing the problem.

This issue seems to have disappeared for me.  Not sure if it was a caching issue or something else, but at this point, with the end-time for all records set after the start-time, I'm smooth sailing.  Thanks.

Ran into the same issue.

The Problem occurs on my side, only when the following are given:

RadScheduler has EnableExactTimeRendering = True and the Start and Endtime is not further apart then 5 Minutes.
I have tested the problem from similar Datetimes till to the Point where the error doesnt show up anymore.

Once your Start and End time is further apart then 5 mintues you wont have a problem in showing the page, but there is still the problem that a 5 Minute task only has a 0 Pixel height (inline Style of div element that has rsApt or rsAptOut cssClass).
So... for some Reason it seems that the height gets subtracted by 5 which results to 0 pixel at a difference of 5 mintues, when you only have a 4 Minutes difference... yeah everyone who have read so far will get what happens. :)
For all the others: 4 minus 5 = -1 results to the mentioned error.

Hope this will get fixed.

Hi Brian,

This issue is already fixed. Please, upgrade to the newest version of RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX in order to get the change.
