Description lost when editing a task?

Questions
1

OK, I’m new to kanboard. Installation on my server was quick and easy…kudos! I run a web hosting business, with all my servers up on AWS and have for many years, so I’m very experienced in Linux and servers.

One weird thing though is after I create a task with a description, if I edit the task…the description is blank. If I save the change, the original description is lost.

I can’t find any bug reports on this or anything in the documentation addressing it.

kanboard configuration:

  • Application version: 1.2.15
  • PHP version: 7.3.23
  • PHP SAPI: cgi-fcgi
  • HTTP Client: cURL
  • OS version: Linux 3.10.0-957.10.1.el7.x86_64
  • Database driver: mysql
  • Database version: 5.5.65-MariaDB
  • Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.13; rv:81.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/81.0

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Fred

Did you check the web server or PHP logs for potential errors?

Are you seeing any Javascript errors in your browser console?

Have you installed any plugins?

I was getting a PHP warning:

“Allocation of JIT memory failed, PCRE JIT will be disabled”

I added:

pcre.jit=0

to my php.ini and now the description is pulled in.

Thank you so much!
