Topic: Calendar / Date Dropdown No Longer Working

After upgrading FA from ver 2.4.11 to Build 7.03.2023 to FA 2.4.15, the date/calendar appears to no longer work.

I can manually enter the date, but the dropdown calendar has stopped functioning.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Re: Calendar / Date Dropdown No Longer Working

Thanks for the suggestion.  However, the "Date Picker" was already flagged when I checked.

I tried unflagging it and updating. That removed the calendar icon from the display. When I flagged the "Date Picker" again and updated, the calendar icon reappeared but as before, has no effect when clicked on.

Try a different browser and see if it works.

I just tried it with MS Edge.  Still the same problem.

I have been using Firefox with FA for a year plus without any problems.

Re: Calendar / Date Dropdown No Longer Working

My last thoughts is to clear company/x/js _cache/x/*.js
This should not be a live system though.
where x is the company number.

When you say say "clear"   What exactly do you mean?

Sorry..I meant to clear the cache. Which is to remove the files in company/x/js _cache/x/*.js
Logoff and login again. You also might have folder permission problems. Review permissions as in

Re: Calendar / Date Dropdown No Longer Working

The problem has been fixed by recursively changing ownership of the fa files

chown -R www-data:www-data
