["Wilson,Randy" <rwilson@xxxxxxx>]

I'm having serious problems getting the orgunit hierarchy and GIS modules to work in 2.5.  I downloaded the war file and replaced the DHIS folder in apache.  Is there something I missed?  Should I have converted the data first?  Previous working platform was 2.4.

Is anyone else having the same issue?

Subject: [Dhis2-users] DHIS 2 version 2.5 released


Hi all,

DHIS 2 version 2.5 is released. We have a range of new modules and functions for you (demo login is admin/district):

- New Data Visualizer module: A module for generating dynamic data analysis and visualization. You can select freely from indicators, data elements, (relative) periods and organisation units as chart dimensions. Data can be visualized as column, bar, stacked column, stacked bar, line, area and pie chart. Which dimensions to use as series, categories and filter can be selected at any time. We have tried to make it very easy-to-use and you will never encounter cryptic user feedback. This strengthens the possibility for DHIS users to create ad-hoc analysis.

At the moment this module deliberately offers a minimum set of features. We encourage you to provide suggestions and comments for future development. More on this in a later mail.

- New web mobile module: Web based interface for low-end mobile devices. This module benefits from the general advantages of web deployments: Easy meta-data maintenance. No client version to manage. Additionally it increases the opportunity to use existing mobile devices. It contains functionality for data entry in addition to charts, reports and documents from the user's dashboard.

- Single-event data management: Functionality for capturing single-event data for events such as births, deaths and referrals. The beneficiary registration is moved to case-based data entry module. Programs can now be defined as single-event based. After registering a beneficiary one can directly enter data for such single-event based "programs". This is in fact a simpler use-case than the program-based data which is already supported.

- Meta-data attributes: Arbitrary attributes can now be added to data elements, indicators, organisation units and users. This comes in handy when making data dictionaries, when additional info is required for users and so on. Attributes can be added in data administration module and will become visible in the respective add and update screens for each object. In addition, all group sets which are marked as compulsory will appear as a drop-down list (where the groups are options).

- Email notifications of messages: Messages which are sent in the DHIS internal messaging systems can now also be delivered to the email address of the user recipients. Email SMTP settings are configurable in settings module (system email settings). Each user can decide to receive emails under user email settings.

- Improved data statistics: Data statistics (under data administration module) now displays the number of unique user being logged in and data records entered for the last day, week and month.

- Editable categories: You can now add or remove category options from categories after they have been created. This should alleviate some of the rigidness of the category model.

- Stacked bar chart: The pre-defined (canned) chart module now offers stacked bar charts.
