Missing drop-down for format selection

Closed this issue · 5 comments

Whilst trying to upload some files via URL, I've noticed that the drop-down for parser / format selection does not display. This defaults all my uploads to the bibtex parser and causes them to fail.

I suspect I'm not putting in the right flie headers in my output, but could we get the UI issue fixed? I can send / attach a screenshot if needed.

OK, etienne and i had a sprint plan this morning, so adding to the current sprint and assigning to etienne to have a look. it was there previously so just must be a recent change gone slightly wrong.

Is this on a local install of BibServer? If so, check that the files in the ./parserscrapers_plugins/ directory are marked as executable. At initialisation the bibserver scans the files in that directory and all files marked as executable are executed with the -bibserver parameter to be added to the list of installed plugins.

Its on bibSoup.net, noted in Firefox and Chrome. Have emailed screenshot.

Hi Ed,

The current instance of bibsoup.net is out of date, it needs to be updated to the current version on Git. The issue you describe in this ticket was fixed in commit a9d889c

Updating the bibsoup.net instance to the latest revision solves the issue.
