Data Crow 4.1

This release contains a bug fix for the reporting. Many users had an issue where the report was not generated at all (this also happened in version 3.12.5 and earlier). I have finally been able to fix the issue (which wasn't easy; on all my test environment it worked correctly).
As a reminder; the Create Report Guid has been updated. You can find it in the download section.
[Fixed]
- Problem resolved for report creation; report not created. Was reported fixed in version 4.0.8 but was still failing for some. The functionality has been tested and has been confirmed to solve the issue.
- After a module has been created and a field has been marked as descriptive the view still shows empty labels.
[Changed]
- The upgrade will now silently copy missing reports and translations to the user folder. Existing files will no longer be overwritten.
- Added additional report types; Word Document (DOCX), Excel Document (XLSX), Excel Document 97-2003 (XLS).
- Added titles to the various message and question boxes.
- Added nicer descriptions for the report types.
- Added various tool tips for the define field dialog (create module wizard).

With this release the following has been fixed:
- Fixed an upgrade issues for the Audio CD and Music Album merge. The error occurred in case online services were never used and the columns SERVICE and SERVICEURL were therefore missing.
- Fixed an upgrade issue for the Audio CD and and Music Album merge. The error occurred in case the new tables already exists due to a faulty earlier upgrade or because the user installed version 4.0 on top of version 3.12.5. Now, Data Crow will delete empty tables required for the new Music Album module. If they contain records, the upgrade will fail.
- The module wizard did not handle special characters correctly.
- Tabs containing special characters were not stored and retrieved correctly.

[Fixed]

[New]
- This version contains the new web server as part of the existing server architecture. This replaces the old web module as was delivered with version 3 but never made it into version 4. The web server delivers the following functionality:
~ Searching for items (Search..)
~ Creating new item (File > Create New)
~ Edit item (Right-Click > Edit)
~ Navigation between items (for example, open a software title, then click on it's category, then see which other items have been assigned to this category, etc.).
~ Picking fields for the overview and the item form (web). (Settings > ..)
~ Full security model has been implemented
This web server delivers the same basic functionality (with a tad more style) as the old web module and will be expanded upon with each and every normal (4.x) delivery see the roadmap at Note: this web server is a module of the existing (since 4.0) server edition. It allows the server to serve both full (thick) clients as well as web clients at the same time. The web server uses an embedded version of Tomcat, version 8.0.23.
[Fixed]
- Change password on a network client caused errors / did not work.
- NullPointerException during start up for users with very limited rights logging onto the server.
[Changed]
- MP4 support for Movie File import. Many thanks Lars Kцvari!
- The Data Crow Server manual has been updated to reflect the 4.1 changes.
