I got confused again when I said it was about time (I missed one unsynched local 'fossil ui' with the server).

So, as said, you can clone that repository: http://vicerveza.homeunix.net/~viric/cgi-bin/nanonixos You will see in the timeline of the server that the event related to the artifact 4d12cabdeca86a71190c39b1e458faae4fad0faf does not appear in the timeline. But I imagine it will appear in your local fossil timeline.

I've investigated a bit...

That server (vicerveza.homeunix.net) running fossil as a cgi is an armv5tel-linux. I tried there fossil [cf178577ec] 2010-11-17 and fossil [12a79e5b93] 2010-10-05). Both show the same behaviour: the event of that artifact is not shown in the timeline. I've tried in all the cases a 'rebuild'.

Nevertheless, if I clone that in an x86_64-linux, I don't have any problem in the local 'fossil ui', using the [cf178577ec] 2010-11-17 version.

The server, to give more details, has gcc 4.5.1, glibc 2.12.1, and all fossil tests passed after building.

As long as investigate... I'm trying "fossil sqlite3". There should be three events, and for example I get:

sqlite> SELECT * from event WHERE event.type='e';
e|2455530.46353009|168|19||||viric||The malta keyboard does not work still|
e|2455530.49096065|169|20||||viric||links2 not working in graphics mode|

I've just compared de "rebuild -quiet -sqltrace" both in x86_64 and armv5tel. The concerning block with the difference is:

282,283c285,288
< SELECT rid FROM tagxref WHERE tagid=11 AND mtime<2455525.422407407 ORDER BY mtime DESC;
< SELECT rid FROM tagxref WHERE tagid=11 AND mtime>2455525.422407407 ORDER BY mtime;
---
> SELECT rid FROM tagxref WHERE tagid=11 AND mtime<2455525.422407408 ORDER BY mtime DESC;
> DELETE FROM event WHERE type='e'   AND tagid=11   AND objid IN (SELECT rid FROM tagxref WHERE tagid=11);
> SELECT rid FROM tagxref WHERE tagid=11 AND mtime>2455525.422407408 ORDER BY mtime;
> REPLACE INTO event(type,mtime,objid,tagid,user,comment,bgcolor)VALUES('e',2455525.421157408,74,11,'viric','Nanonote boot',  (SELECT value FROM tagxref WHERE tagid=1 AND rid=74));

I think there may be a problem on floating point precision / algorithms. The armv5tel cpu does not have a FPU, and it uses gcc's -msoft-float.

So, manifest_parse includes:

        p->rDate = db_double(0.0, "SELECT julianday(%Q)", next_token(&x,0));

While the tag_insert called in manifest_crosslink() does:

  db_prepare(&s,
    "REPLACE INTO tagxref(tagid,tagtype,srcId,origid,value,mtime,rid)"
    " VALUES(%d,%d,%d,%d,%Q,:mtime,%d)",
    tagid, tagtype, srcId, rid, zValue, rid
  );
  db_bind_double(&s, ":mtime", mtime);

While the call at manifest_crosslink() does:

    prior = db_int(0,
      "SELECT rid FROM tagxref"
      " WHERE tagid=%d AND mtime<%.17g"
      " ORDER BY mtime DESC",
      tagid, p->rDate
    );

I think that the %.17g printf kind of prompt should be moved into db_bind_double, as before. Otherwise there may be rounding problems, like those I am experiencing.

Notice that the tag_insert resulted, in both computers, in:

REPLACE INTO tagxref(tagid,tagtype,srcId,origid,value,mtime,rid) VALUES(11,1,74,74,'365',2455525.42240741,74);

While the printf-style SQL queries with %.17g had different results in the two computers.

Is [722d7cac97] going to mean any improvement on this?

Thank you.

I think [9b26d1e9a2] may have fixed the problem. I'll try.
