Failing widgets after upgrade to 24.7

[mvdheijkant]

I was looking forward to a new dashboard, after upgrading to 24.7 but it's still a bit disapointing.
As the attached picture shows, some of the widgets do not work (yet).
"System Information" sometimes shows after a page refresh, but after a short while it shows "failed" again.
Are these known issues for all of the failing widgets?

Hope we get a hotfix soon.

Not to disappoint, but I saw something similar while testing 24.7 on an underpowered APU1 where half the dashboard failed to load -- possibly just due to arbitrary timeout limits that the hardware couldn't fulfil according to the JS console.

Would be easy to fix, but also highly localised problem.

Yes, I have same problem on several platforms in multiple cloud environments.
VM is running on small cheap VPS, but doing doing good job for money.
Tested, that each API request takes 2-8sec to load.
UI has some timeout set to 1 sec, therefore everything failing.

Thanks for confirming. I'm sure we'll find a good solution here until 24.7.1.

Running into the same issue on a DEC850 which should have enough CPU resources.
There must be something else going on that is not caused by low performance systems.

Since JS is client side it could also be a slower client. It's pretty hard to tell without sitting in front of it.

I had this kind of problem while testing 24.7 betas... I assumed that it was because the lack of resources on my testing environment.
Celeron 11 or 12 years old... I was running a virtual router and managed it by a virtual desktop.... veeeeery slow, but enough for testing purposes.
Now that I've updated my main router I didn't see this error anymore.

Was having this issue using Firefox, tried Edge and it works no problem. I did not have issues with the betas on Firefox.

I do run into the issue on Edge.

My test system is an i5 6500 with 8gig of Ram. So am not sure if it would be a low resource issue as mentioned before.

Its clear from browser dev console:
On first there is 1sec timeout on UI enforced.
On second there is real load time of response. Response is ok, JSON is ok, return code 200-ok.

Mine were all broken too - clear your browser cache and all will be amazing.
Great upgrade Team!

wait, I've found a problem...

I have an APU2 and my widgets fail to load from time to time too.
Is it possible to just use the old dashboard? Less bling-bling but at least working reliably.

[franco]

Nope.
