If you want to update a JATOS server from version < 3.7.1 read the release information from v3.7.x first.
Try out the new version on cortex.jatos.org.
Changes in 3.8.6
- Fix (#304) - JATOS 3.8.x stops sending data during a study run once a single request fails without getting any response from the JATOS server (e.g. due to network problems)
- GUI / Study Links page - Allow editing of a study link's comments
Changes in 3.8.5
- Added authentication with ORCID (orcid.org) and OpenID Connect (OIDC)
- Added download button to QR codes of study links
- Added study link's comments to result metadata (#293)
Changes in 3.8.4
- Bugfix: Result files stored in the wrong folder (#292)
Changes in 3.8.3
- Bugfixes
- Administration improvements:
- Added docs for JATOS with Docker Compose and JATOS in a cluster with Kubernetes
- Rename JATOS' config file: production.conf to jatos.conf (but production.conf is still allowed)
- Better support of multi-node setups: set flag jatos.multiNode=true
- Make migrations and updates multi-node safe
- Add liveness test: route /ping answers with 'pong'
- JATOS' tmp folder is now configurable via jatos.tmpPath and JATOS_TMP_PATH
- Improved Dockerfile: JATOS home folder is now by default /opt/jatos and JATOS' data (study assets, result uploads, study logs) are in /opt/jatos_data
- Added Tests to GUI's administration page / Tests: test access to all necessary folders (study assets, result uploads, logs, study logs, and tmp folder)
Changes in 3.8.2
- Bugfixes
- Result data exported as Plain Text missing line-breaks (#285 )
- Malformed cookies from older JATOS versions can cause an InternalServerError with some browsers
- GUI:
- Use browser's local date-time (instead of server's date-time) at e.g. Start Time or Last Seen in the result pages
- Study Links, in the setup for the Personal types - add a button group to toggle between visibility of All, Active, Deactivated, and Used study links
- JATOS API: new endpoint to get the directory structure of a study assets directory in JSON
- A lot of administration improvements:
- Abolished server-side cache -> all state is now either in the database or in cookies (easier to run JATOS on multiple nodes)
- Logs config:
- Allow to configure the location of the application logs
- Allow logging to file or
stdout
- production.conf - Equalize property names. Most common names all start with
jatos.now, but old-style names are still supported. - Abolished use of
X-Forwarded-*HTTP headers (X-Forwarded-Proto,X-Forwarded-For,X-Forwarded-Ssl) (easier to run JATOS in complex system layouts)
