Client: Reword incomprehensible web UI messages

Open indyjo opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

  • When a transactions expires, the UI-visible error message should read "Transaction has expired". Instead is says something incomprehensible like "Error awaiting UNVERIFIED phase: Transaction no longer active. Additionally: Error transmitting work and receiving encrypted result: Error sending work chunk data to seller: Post http://176.9.2.58:8082/1f5b7c82: net/http: HTTP/1.x transport connection broken: write tcp 192.168.0.101:65329->176.9.2.58:8082: use of closed network connection".

  • Any suggestions?

Maybe a possible cause and some suggestion regarding addon parameters, bandwidth conditions and such and such?

@awanderley, I talked with @Mobilpadde about the idea of rendering status of each tile/transaction directly into the Blender viewport. At least color-coding current status and displaying a progress bar to inform about work data transfer and time left until a tile expires. There is more information we could expand into. Would give a direct visual feedback much closer to where the user is looking at.

It's pretty normal to have transactions expiring during TRANSMITTING phase. It should give a clear visual feedback without causing too much alarm.
