[Building Sakai] weird bug in assignments: it's showing the

[Charles Hedrick]

OK, so it's now happening at at least 3 places. Any commonality in sakai versions? We hadn't seen it under 2.7.0, but are seeing it in 2.7.1.

Yes, they are inline text, not attachments.

What's happening is the following:

instructor hits "next"
new screen comes up with text from old screen in FCK
instructor does next or previous
an automatic save occurs. The contents of FCK are saved as feedback, i.e. Sakai thinks it's a version of the student's assignment with instructor comments

The database shows the correct submission, but the wrong one as feedback.
If you go back to the assignment in the UI, you'll see the wrong data, because when feedback exists, the UI will show it rather than the original submission.

We think other data such as grade may also be duplicated, but we can't be sure yet.

I don't see how having another window open would have any effect. The instructor is going from one student to another in the same window. I understand that doing that isn't safe, but it wold require a very strange and unlikely pattern of actions in the two windows to cause this effect.

It's happened enough that I consider it a crisis.
