2025.253

Changed

  • Update documentation in regards to required Python version

2025.206

Fixed

  • Target and Target Group query for PostgreSQL

2025.202

Important

THIS IS A MAJOR UPGRADE. MANUAL SETUP IS REQUIRED. Please read the following ChangeLog and the General Instructions as well as the Migration to 2025.202 (Django 5.2, venv) section carefully.

The following operating systems are affected in particular:

  • RHEL 8

    • Upgrade to Python 3.11

    • Upgrade to MariaDB 10.5 (available with RHEL 8.4)

    • Upgrade to PostgreSQL 12

  • RHEL 9 and Debian 11

    • Upgrade to Python 3.11

Fixed

  • Default for requestLimit.docSize was set to 1MiB instead of 10MiB

Changed

  • Update Django to 5.2. As a consequence the minimum versions of the following software packages changed

    • Python: 3.10

    • MariaDB: 10.4

    • PostgreSQL: 12.2

  • Drop support for Ubuntu 20.04 (EOL reached)

  • Use venv for Python dependencies

  • Increase default value for DATA_UPLOAD_MAX_MEMORY_SIZE to 10MiB

  • Increase default value for DATA_UPLOAD_MAX_NUMBER_FIELDS to 10000

Added

  • Target Groups and Targets

  • Admin action and manage.py command merge_subscriptions to merge subscriptions sharing attributes and differ in service target only.

  • Datamodel import and export option in Django admin interface supporting different data formats such as CSV and JSON.

  • Django Natural Key support to GDS model. Natural keys allow to dump and load data without database numeric ids.

  • Admin interface object counter for related objects.

  • Configuration options PAGE_MAX_ITEMS, PAGE_ADJACENT_ITEMS, PAGE_CORNER_ITEMS controlling the paginator.

  • Read X-TextFileName and X-HTMLFileName external bulletin parameters in send_ftp spooler.

2025.182

Fixed

  • Delta origin time evaluation for resend mode OnSigChange and OnceMatchedOnSigChange for GDS versions >= 2025.028.

2025.168

Fixed

  • Frontend subscription and bulletin evaluation for event revision containing non-ASCII Unicode characters.

2025.164

Changed

  • Update installation instructions

    • Require django-extensions==3.* as version 4 will requires Django 4.

    • Add backend configuration examples.

    • Add note regarde dbSequencePrefix parameter required for PostgreSQL installation.

2025.120

Fixed

  • Exporter configuration for external criteria

Changed

  • Support context command line variables eliminating need for exporter for simple checks

2025.066

Fixed

  • Restore default request limits.

    • GDS Version 2023.320 added the option to configure limits for the GDS backend request parameters in the configuration group requestLimits.

    • Unfortunately defaults of some parameters where changed by mistake and are now corrected as follows:

      • subscriptions: 100 -> 1000

      • docSize: 100MiB -> 10MiB

      • totalAttachmentSize: 10MiB -> 100MiB

  • Report criteria evaluation result of mismatched queues

Changed

  • Validate QuakeLink server certificate in case of SSL connections

    • If the GDS frontend is configured to connect to QuakeLink via a SSL tunnel (QUAKELINK_SSL = True in $SEISCOMP_ROOT/share/gds/web/gds/settings.py) then the client code will now validate the QuakeLink server’s hostname and certificate against the system wide certificate store. This is now identical to the GDS backend connection which was validated already.

    • If you use a self-signed certificate for the QuakeLink server then you need to configure the certificate authority under QUAKELINK_CAFILE.

2025.044

Fixed

  • Export of event parameters without filter. This bug was introduced with version 2025.027.

2025.041

Added

  • Preserve line break option in NetGSM spooler

    • The HWg-SMS-GW3 modem will remove line breaks by default. To preserve line breaks they must be encoded as 
. If this option is set to True the spooler will automatically replace all \n with 
.

2025.027

Added

  • Support the definition of exporter type in first filter stage and external criterion.

    • The default trunk will export SCML. Other options like binary, json or qml1.2 exist. See sccnv --format-list for a list of available options.

    • Use an empty value to disabled any output. This might be useful if your primary filter requires only access to basic event parameter which are available through placeholder parameters defined in the primary filter command string.

    • Some of the exporters are implemented as plugins which need to be loaded before they can be used. For maximum performance, you may also deside to write your own exporter in C++ which generates your bulletin instead of invoking the primary filter command.

  • Add context resolver replacing key event parameter variables of form @NAME@ in filter and external criterion commands. The following variables exist: REVISION, EVENTID, ORIGINTIME, LATITUDE, LONGITUDE, DEPTH, MAGNITUDE, RMS, PHASES, MAGNITUDECOUNT, EVALUATIONMODE, EVALUATIONSTATUS, REGION, EVENTTYPE and MAGTYPE.

2024.254

Important

THIS IS A MAJOR UPGRADE. MANUAL SETUP IS REQUIRED. Please read the following ChangeLog and the instructions for Database Migrations after 2017.269 carefully.

Experienced users may run

cd $SEISCOMP_ROOT/share/gds/web
python3 manage.py showmigrations
python3 manage.py migrate

Fixed

  • PostgreSQL DB Date format parsing for SeisComP >= 6.4

    • The Django PostgreSQL DB backend maps DateTimeFields to timestamp with time zone by default. Time zone conversion never was supported by the GDS backend using the SeisComP date time classes. Prior to SeisComP 6.4 the timezone information was silently dropped leading to inaccurate date time comparisons if the systems time was not set to UTC. Since SeisComP 6.4 an error is thrown which surfaces if the GDS compares the origin time of a previous dissemination to the current one in an attempt to detect a significant change.

    • This migration removes the timezone information from timestamp columns of the log tables. Time stamps are converted to UTC if a locale time zone was used.

2022.252

Important

THIS IS A MAJOR UPGRADE. MANUAL SETUP IS REQUIRED. Please read the following ChangeLog and the instructions for Database Migrations after 2017.269 carefully.

Changed

  • Decrease target field of Subscription from 400 to 180 characters. Version 2022.231 increased the field length from 100 to 400 characters. With 400 x 4 bytes = 1600 bytes, the upper index limit of 767 bytes for older MySQL/MariaDB versions was exceeded and the migration step failed.

    In case you already specified targets longer than 180 characters the new migration will fail, e.g.,

    MySQLdb.DataError: (1265, "Data truncated for column 'service_target' ...

    and you have to login to your database and manually reduce the target string, e.g.,

    UPDATE gds_subscription SET service_target = LEFT(service_target, 180);

THIS IS A MAJOR UPGRADE. MANUAL SETUP IS REQUIRED. Please read the following ChangeLog and the Update Instructions (2020.282) carefully.
