Certain script-based configuration items are often copied manually from one instance of ClinSpark to another as a mechanism of deployment for testing or promotion between environments. There does exist a small risk that white space and/or other invisible characters (line feeds / carriage returns etc.) may inadvertently be included if done so outside the browser windows. In versions prior to 23.3, this will affect the value of the checksum / hash and therefore it will not be possible to demonstrate maintenance of the configuration state.

To reduce the risk of manual errors, consider using keyboard commands to select all text in a source script field prior to pasting it in a target script field, through the browser directly. The use of certain diff utilities outside of the browser may be useful as well to confirm if source/target configurations are the same. It is not recommended to copy contents between source/target environments using any utilities or applications that would introduce formatting or unwanted characters into script content. |
