RDi plug-in forgetting filters

Periodically, when I start up RDi 9.8.0.6, with the Rocket plug-in version 10.4.0.v202409041507, all my filters in the RDOi subsystem will be gone.

Sometimes they will reappear if I create one new filter.

Most of the time, however, I have to recreate my filters.

The last time this happened (today), I noticed this in the .log file…

Is this a known issue or should I open a bug?

Hi David, 

I’ve seen this case occur a few times.  Some dependency or timing issue with open/refresh of workspace where we may not be playing well with another plugin.

Can you please create a support case for this one?  I’ve seen this previously in plugin and we’ll need some more info to check on this from your workbench.  I’d like to get the workbench config details and the messages and .log file from your workspace where you’d seen this.

Thanks in advance, 

Dale

@Dale Asher next time it happens, I’ll open a case.

Can you tell me exactly what diagnostics you would want collected?

I’m assuming the .log file.  Anything else?
