Tasks not uploading to the database

By Tawanda Mutasa

28 November 2021

 

Platform

Browser: Chrome, Firefox, and Internet Explorer.
App: Web app
 

Steps to replicate:

1, Sign into volunteers.net.
2, Go to create new task.
3, Fill in all fields.
4, Click the submit button.
 

Expected outcome

A popup that says “Task successfully created” should appear. The new task should be added to the user’s tasks.
 

Current outcome

A blank screen appears. Furthermore, we can confirm the task is not being entered in the database as well.
 

Screenshots:

Insert screenshot of the task form with details already filled in.
Insert screenshot of blank page after submitting.
Insert screenshot of the database table, which clearly shows the data is not in the table.
 

Impact

CRITICAL: Administrators are unable to set their volunteers tasks, which means entire organisations are grinding to a halt.
Recommendation: Until the issue has been fixed, all administrators should forward their task details to Support, so we can manually insert them via MySQL Workbench.

This is an example of how I might create a bug report for engineers to inform them of a feature not working properly.
