Hello Scanshare team,

In capture & Store 4.10 (64bit edition), USER variables created from process modules (barcode, OCR zone) are not listed when clicking on VAR button.

Strangely, USER variables created from questions in capture modules are listed in VAR button.

Best regards

Stéphane

Hi Stéphane,

we are aware about this behavior and unfortunately it is a bug appeared in the official 4.10 installer affecting in general the variables list.

However it is just a UI bug and the variable is working correctly if entered manually. We are preparing a patch to fix this annoying bug but in the mean time you can suggest to write the variable manually, e.g. %OCR_ZONE01%, in the field it needs to be entered.

Only in the case the variable would be required also for the combo box which will not allow to type in text, I suggest you use a workaround to insert another not used server variable (e.g. %USERDEPARTMENT%) and update this variable with a script just before the YOUR connector, example:

var = Metadata.Values("OCR_ZONE01")

call Metadata.SetValues("USERDEPARTMENT", var)

Sorry for the inconvenience and we update you as soon as the patch will be available .

Best regards,

Luca

Hello,

I've updated my installation to 4.10.0.0.u038 64bit, but the bug is not fixed :-(

Even after restart webserver, all CS services, and server reboot. The variables from process modules dosn't appear in VAR list.

Ex: OCR_ZONE01

Best regards

Hi Stéphane,

that's strange...are you sure you have done all the steps? did you run the .exe file (double click on the KB000038.exe patch for your platform, x86 or x64.) in the application root folder?

Please read this post: Cumulative update for v4.10: KB000038

Best regards,

Luca

Hi Luca,

Capture & Store has done the KB installation automatically (this was written in the info menu of the UI) and then the updated icon was displayed in dashboard and the version changed to 4.10.0.0.u038 64bit, so i thought it was ok for the update.

I've runned the captureandstore_4.10_kb000038_x64.exe as you said, and it is ok now :-)

So, the fact that CS version changed to 4.10.0.0.u038 64bit before i ran the .exe file, i just to inform that the update is ready to install?

Best regards

Stéphane
