# Phase 2 PC Pages Migration TODO ## Overview Machine pages (displaymachine.asp, displaymachines.asp, machine_edit.asp) have been successfully migrated to Phase 2 schema. PC pages still use the old `pc` and `pc_network_interfaces` tables and must be updated to use the consolidated `machines` and `communications` tables. **Status:** ✅ **COMPLETE** (Completed: November 10, 2025) **Priority:** High (P1) **Actual Effort:** 6-7 hours > **📝 See completion details:** [PHASE2_PC_MIGRATION_COMPLETE.md](./PHASE2_PC_MIGRATION_COMPLETE.md) --- ## Background ### Phase 2 Schema Consolidation - **Before:** Separate `pc` and `machines` tables - **After:** Single `machines` table with `pctypeid IS NOT NULL` identifying PCs - **Network Interfaces:** `pc_network_interfaces` → `communications` - **Relationships:** `pc_dualpath_assignments` → `machinerelationships` ### PC Identification in Phase 2 ```sql -- PCs are identified by having a pctypeid SELECT * FROM machines WHERE pctypeid IS NOT NULL -- Equipment has pctypeid = NULL SELECT * FROM machines WHERE pctypeid IS NULL ``` ### ✅ Machine Pages Completed - Use as Reference The machine management pages have been successfully migrated and can serve as templates for PC pages: **Reference Files:** - `/home/camp/projects/windows/shopdb/displaymachines.asp` - List page (equipment only) - `/home/camp/projects/windows/shopdb/displaymachine.asp` - Individual view page - `/home/camp/projects/windows/shopdb/machine_edit.asp` - Edit page **Key Fixes Applied to Machines (Apply to PCs):** 1. Column name fixes: `ipaddress` → `address` in communications table 2. Relationship query direction: Controls is PC → Equipment (one-way) 3. Type conversion: All text fields need `& ""` for HTMLEncode compatibility 4. Include all ID columns in SELECT queries for dropdowns 5. Use LEFT JOIN for optional relationships (functionalaccounts, machinetypes) 6. Remove inline edit forms, use dedicated edit pages --- ## Files Requiring Migration ### 1. displaypcs.asp - PC List Page **Status:** ✅ COMPLETE (Updated: 2025-11-10 14:40) **Location:** `/home/camp/projects/windows/shopdb/displaypcs.asp` **Current State:** - Queries `pc` table - Shows list of all PCs **Required Changes:** - [ ] Update SQL query to use `machines WHERE pctypeid IS NOT NULL` - [ ] Update column references from `pc.*` to `machines.*` - [ ] Convert text fields to strings with `& ""` for HTMLEncode - [ ] Test with existing PC data - [ ] Verify links to displaypc.asp work - [ ] Check pagination if exists **Example Query Update:** ```asp ' BEFORE: strSQL = "SELECT * FROM pc WHERE isactive = 1 ORDER BY hostname" ' AFTER: strSQL = "SELECT m.*, pt.pctype, pt.pctypeid, " & _ "mo.modelnumber, mo.modelnumberid, " & _ "v.vendor, v.vendorid, " & _ "bu.businessunit, bu.businessunitid " & _ "FROM machines m " & _ "LEFT JOIN pctypes pt ON m.pctypeid = pt.pctypeid " & _ "LEFT JOIN models mo ON m.modelnumberid = mo.modelnumberid " & _ "LEFT JOIN vendors v ON mo.vendorid = v.vendorid " & _ "LEFT JOIN businessunits bu ON m.businessunitid = bu.businessunitid " & _ "WHERE m.pctypeid IS NOT NULL AND m.isactive = 1 " & _ "ORDER BY m.hostname" ``` **Template:** Mirror displaymachines.asp but filter for PCs instead of equipment --- ### 2. displaypc.asp - Individual PC View Page **Status:** ✅ COMPLETE (Updated: 2025-11-10) **Location:** `/home/camp/projects/windows/shopdb/displaypc.asp` **Current State:** - Queries `pc` table for PC details - Queries `pc_network_interfaces` for network info - May have inline edit form **Required Changes:** - [ ] Update main query to use `machines WHERE pctypeid IS NOT NULL` - [ ] Update network query to use `communications` table - [ ] Update column references: - `pc.pcid` → `machines.machineid` - `pc.hostname` → `machines.hostname` - `pc.notes` → `machines.machinenotes` - `pc_network_interfaces.ipaddress` → `communications.address` - `pc_network_interfaces.macaddress` → `communications.macaddress` - [ ] Convert all text fields to strings with `& ""` for HTMLEncode - [ ] Add 5-tab structure (Settings, Network, Relationships, Compliance, Applications) - [ ] Remove inline edit form if present - [ ] Add "Edit PC" button linking to pc_edit.asp - [ ] Update dualpath relationships query to use `machinerelationships` - [ ] Update controlled equipment query to use `machinerelationships` - [ ] Test with real PC data including special characters **Main Query Example:** ```asp strSQL = "SELECT m.machineid, m.machinenumber, m.alias, m.hostname, " & _ "m.serialnumber, m.machinenotes, m.mapleft, m.maptop, " & _ "m.modelnumberid, m.businessunitid, m.printerid, m.pctypeid, " & _ "m.loggedinuser, m.osid, m.machinestatusid, m.lastupdated, m.dateadded, " & _ "pt.pctype, pt.pctypeid, " & _ "mo.modelnumber, mo.image, mo.modelnumberid, " & _ "v.vendor, v.vendorid, " & _ "bu.businessunit, bu.businessunitid, " & _ "os.osname, os.osversion, " & _ "pr.printerwindowsname, pr.printerid " & _ "FROM machines m " & _ "LEFT JOIN pctypes pt ON m.pctypeid = pt.pctypeid " & _ "LEFT JOIN models mo ON m.modelnumberid = mo.modelnumberid " & _ "LEFT JOIN vendors v ON mo.vendorid = v.vendorid " & _ "LEFT JOIN businessunits bu ON m.businessunitid = bu.businessunitid " & _ "LEFT JOIN operatingsystems os ON m.osid = os.osid " & _ "LEFT JOIN printers pr ON m.printerid = pr.printerid " & _ "WHERE m.machineid = ?

AND c.isactive = 1 " & _ "ORDER BY c.isprimary DESC" ``` **Dualpath Relationships Example:** ```asp ' Dualpath is bidirectional (PC ↔ PC), so query in both directions strSQL = "SELECT mr.related_machineid, m.alias, m.hostname " & _ "FROM machinerelationships mr " & _ "JOIN relationshiptypes rt ON mr.relationshiptypeid = rt.relationshiptypeid " & _ "LEFT JOIN machines m ON mr.related_machineid = m.machineid " & _ "WHERE mr.machineid = ? AND rt.relationshiptype = 'Dualpath' AND mr.isactive = 1" ``` **Controlled Equipment Example:** ```asp ' PCs can control multiple pieces of equipment (Controls is PC → Equipment) ' Query: Find equipment WHERE this PC is the controller (machineid = this PC) strSQL = "SELECT mr.related_machineid AS equipmentid, m.machinenumber, m.alias " & _ "FROM machinerelationships mr " & _ "JOIN relationshiptypes rt ON mr.relationshiptypeid = rt.relationshiptypeid " & _ "LEFT JOIN machines m ON mr.related_machineid = m.machineid " & _ "WHERE mr.machineid = ? AND rt.relationshiptype = 'Controls' AND mr.isactive = 1" ``` **Template:** Copy displaymachine.asp tabs structure, add Controlled Equipment section in Relationships tab --- ### 3. editpc.asp - PC Edit Page **Status:** ✅ COMPLETE (Updated: 2025-11-10 10:52) **Location:** `/home/camp/projects/windows/shopdb/editpc.asp` **Current State:** - May query `pc` table - May query `pc_network_interfaces` - May query `pc_dualpath_assignments` **Required Changes:** - [ ] Check if file exists, create if needed (may be editpc.asp or need to create pc_edit.asp) - [ ] Update main query to use `machines WHERE pctypeid IS NOT NULL` - [ ] Update network interfaces to use `communications` table - [ ] Update dualpath to use `machinerelationships` with 'Dualpath' type - [ ] Fix column names: - `ipaddress` → `address` in communications - `pcid` → `machineid` - `notes` → `machinenotes` - [ ] Convert all text fields to strings with `& ""` for HTMLEncode - [ ] Add controlled equipment section (PCs can control multiple equipment) - [ ] Test form submission - [ ] Verify data saves correctly - [ ] Test with PCs that have special characters in text fields **Main Query Example:** ```asp ' Mirror machine_edit.asp main query, change WHERE clause for PCs strSQL = "SELECT m.*, " &_ "mo.modelnumber, mo.vendorid AS modelvendorid, mo.machinetypeid, mo.image AS modelimage, " &_ "v.vendor, " &_ "bu.businessunit, " &_ "pt.pctype " &_ "FROM machines m " &_ "LEFT JOIN models mo ON m.modelnumberid = mo.modelnumberid " &_ "LEFT JOIN vendors v ON mo.vendorid = v.vendorid " &_ "LEFT JOIN businessunits bu ON m.businessunitid = bu.businessunitid " &_ "LEFT JOIN pctypes pt ON m.pctypeid = pt.pctypeid " &_ "WHERE m.machineid = ? AND m.pctypeid IS NOT NULL" ' Load data with string conversion (CRITICAL for HTMLEncode) Dim hostname, alias, machinenotes, serialnumber hostname = "" : If NOT IsNull(rsMachine("hostname")) Then hostname = rsMachine("hostname") & "" alias = "" : If NOT IsNull(rsMachine("alias")) Then alias = rsMachine("alias") & "" machinenotes = "" : If NOT IsNull(rsMachine("machinenotes")) Then machinenotes = rsMachine("machinenotes") & "" serialnumber = "" : If NOT IsNull(rsMachine("serialnumber")) Then serialnumber = rsMachine("serialnumber") & "" ``` **Network Query Example:** ```asp ' Same as machine_edit.asp - use communications table strSQL = "SELECT address, macaddress FROM communications WHERE machineid = ? AND isactive = 1 ORDER BY isprimary DESC" ' Load with string conversion Dim ip1, mac1, ip2, mac2, ip3, mac3 ip1 = "" : mac1 = "" : ip2 = "" : mac2 = "" : ip3 = "" : mac3 = "" While NOT rsComms.EOF AND interfaceCount < 3 If interfaceCount = 1 Then If NOT IsNull(rsComms("address")) Then ip1 = rsComms("address") & "" If NOT IsNull(rsComms("macaddress")) Then mac1 = rsComms("macaddress") & "" ' ... etc Wend ``` **Controlling Equipment Query:** ```asp ' PCs can control multiple pieces of equipment (Controls is PC → Equipment) ' Query: Find equipment WHERE this PC (machineid) is the controller strSQL = "SELECT mr.related_machineid AS equipmentid FROM machinerelationships mr " &_ "JOIN relationshiptypes rt ON mr.relationshiptypeid = rt.relationshiptypeid " &_ "WHERE mr.machineid = ? AND rt.relationshiptype = 'Controls' AND mr.isactive = 1" ' Note: This is OPPOSITE of machine_edit.asp where we query for controlling PC ' Machine: WHERE mr.related_machineid = ? (find PC that controls THIS equipment) ' PC: WHERE mr.machineid = ? (find equipment that THIS PC controls) ``` **Dualpath Query:** ```asp ' Same as machine_edit.asp strSQL = "SELECT related_machineid FROM machinerelationships mr " &_ "JOIN relationshiptypes rt ON mr.relationshiptypeid = rt.relationshiptypeid " &_ "WHERE mr.machineid = ? AND rt.relationshiptype = 'Dualpath' AND mr.isactive = 1" ``` **Template:** Copy machine_edit.asp structure exactly, adjust: 1. WHERE clause: `m.pctypeid IS NOT NULL` instead of `IS NULL` 2. Relationships: Show controlled equipment instead of controlling PC 3. Form fields: May need PC-specific fields (pctype dropdown, etc.) --- ## Column Mapping Reference ### PC Table → Machines Table | Old (pc table) | New (machines table) | Notes | |---------------|---------------------|-------| | `pcid` | `machineid` | Primary key | | `hostname` | `hostname` | Same | | `serialnumber` | `serialnumber` | Same | | `alias` | `alias` | Same | | `pctypeid` | `pctypeid` | **Must be NOT NULL for PCs** | | `loggedinuser` | `loggedinuser` | Same | | `notes` | `machinenotes` | Column renamed | | `modelnumberid` | `modelnumberid` | Same | | `businessunitid` | `businessunitid` | Same | | `printerid` | `printerid` | Same | | `osid` | `osid` | Same | | `machinestatusid` | `machinestatusid` | Same | | `mapleft` | `mapleft` | Same | | `maptop` | `maptop` | Same | | `dateadded` | `dateadded` | Same | | `lastupdated` | `lastupdated` | Same | | `isactive` | `isactive` | Same | ### PC Network Interfaces → Communications | Old (pc_network_interfaces) | New (communications) | Notes | |-----------------------------|---------------------|-------| | `interfaceid` | `comid` | Primary key renamed | | `pcid` | `machineid` | Foreign key renamed | | `ipaddress` | `address` | **Column renamed** | | `macaddress` | `macaddress` | Same | | `interfacename` | `interfacename` | Same | | `isprimary` | `isprimary` | Same | | `comstypeid` | `comstypeid` | Same | | `isactive` | `isactive` | Same | ### PC Dualpath → Machine Relationships | Old (pc_dualpath_assignments) | New (machinerelationships) | Notes | |-------------------------------|---------------------------|-------| | `assignmentid` | `relationshipid` | Primary key | | `pcid` | `machineid` | First machine in relationship | | `dualpath_pcid` | `related_machineid` | Second machine in relationship | | N/A | `relationshiptypeid` | **NEW:** FK to relationshiptypes | | N/A | Must filter by `relationshiptype = 'Dualpath'` | Bidirectional relationship | --- ## Testing Checklist ### After Each Page Migration: - [ ] Page loads without 500 errors - [ ] All data displays correctly - [ ] No "Item cannot be found in collection" errors - [ ] Links work correctly - [ ] Edit functionality works (if applicable) - [ ] Data saves correctly (if applicable) - [ ] Check logs for any errors - [ ] Test with multiple PCs - [ ] Test with PCs that have NULL values - [ ] Test with PCs that have relationships ### Integration Testing: - [ ] displaypcs.asp → displaypc.asp navigation works - [ ] displaypc.asp → pc_edit.asp navigation works - [ ] pc_edit.asp saves and redirects correctly - [ ] Dualpath relationships display correctly - [ ] Controlling equipment relationships display correctly - [ ] Network interfaces display correctly - [ ] All tabs load correctly (if applicable) --- ## Known Issues from Machine Migration Reference these to avoid similar problems when migrating PC pages: ### 1. Column Name Errors **Issue:** Using wrong column names causes "Item cannot be found" errors **Solution:** Always verify column names against actual database schema Common Mistakes: - `ipaddress` → should be `address` in communications table - `notes` → should be `machinenotes` in machines table - `function` → should be `functionalaccount` in functionalaccounts table - `pcid` → should be `machineid` in machines table ### 2. Type Mismatch with HTMLEncode **Issue:** `Type_mismatch:_'HTMLEncode'` error on line containing Server.HTMLEncode() **Cause:** Text fields not explicitly converted to strings **Solution:** Always concatenate `& ""` when loading text from recordset **CRITICAL - Apply to ALL PC Pages:** ```asp ' WRONG - will cause type mismatch with special characters hostname = rsMachine("hostname") alias = rsMachine("alias") machinenotes = rsMachine("machinenotes") ' CORRECT - explicitly convert to string hostname = "" : If NOT IsNull(rsMachine("hostname")) Then hostname = rsMachine("hostname") & "" alias = "" : If NOT IsNull(rsMachine("alias")) Then alias = rsMachine("alias") & "" machinenotes = "" : If NOT IsNull(rsMachine("machinenotes")) Then machinenotes = rsMachine("machinenotes") & "" ``` **Test with:** PCs that have pipe characters (|), quotes, or other special characters in text fields ### 3. Missing Columns in SELECT **Issue:** Dropdowns fail because ID columns missing **Solution:** Always include ID columns (vendorid, modelnumberid, pctypeid, etc.) even if only displaying names **Example:** ```asp ' WRONG - only includes names SELECT vendor, modelnumber, businessunit ' CORRECT - includes both IDs and names SELECT v.vendor, v.vendorid, mo.modelnumber, mo.modelnumberid, bu.businessunit, bu.businessunitid ``` ### 4. Relationship Direction **Issue:** Wrong relationships displayed or pre-filled **Solution:** Understand relationship direction and query accordingly **Controls Relationship (One-Way: PC → Equipment):** ```asp ' For EQUIPMENT page - find controlling PC: WHERE mr.related_machineid = ? AND rt.relationshiptype = 'Controls' SELECT mr.machineid -- Returns the PC that controls this equipment ' For PC page - find controlled equipment: WHERE mr.machineid = ? AND rt.relationshiptype = 'Controls' SELECT mr.related_machineid -- Returns equipment controlled by this PC ``` **Dualpath Relationship (Bidirectional: PC ↔ PC):** ```asp ' Same query for both PCs WHERE mr.machineid = ? AND rt.relationshiptype = 'Dualpath' SELECT mr.related_machineid ``` ### 5. LEFT JOIN for Optional Relationships **Issue:** Query fails or returns no data when optional table has NULL **Solution:** Use LEFT JOIN for optional relationships Required JOINs (INNER): - models (every machine has a model) - vendors (every model has a vendor) - businessunits (every machine has a business unit) Optional JOINs (LEFT): - pctypes (NULL for equipment, NOT NULL for PCs) - machinetypes (only for equipment with machine types) - functionalaccounts (optional) - printers (optional) - operatingsystems (optional) ### 6. IIS Caching Issues **Issue:** HTTP 414 "URL Too Long" errors or changes not reflecting **Solution:** - Touch file after edits: `touch filename.asp` - If 414 persists, rename file to new name - Clear browser cache when testing --- ## Success Criteria ✅ **Migration Complete When:** 1. All three PC pages load without errors 2. PC list displays correctly 3. Individual PC view shows all data 4. PC edit form loads and saves correctly 5. Network interfaces display correctly 6. Dualpath relationships display correctly 7. Controlling equipment relationships display correctly (if applicable) 8. No references to `pc` or `pc_network_interfaces` tables remain 9. All functionality matches machine pages --- ## Timeline **Estimated Time:** 4-6 hours - displaypcs.asp: 1-2 hours - displaypc.asp: 2-3 hours - editpc.asp / pc_edit.asp: 1-2 hours - Testing: 1 hour **Priority:** High - Should be completed before next production deployment --- ## Related Documentation - `/home/camp/projects/windows/shopdb/BUGFIX_2025-11-07.md` - Machine migration fixes - `/home/camp/projects/windows/shopdb/MACHINE_MANAGEMENT_COMPLETE.md` - Machine implementation - `/home/camp/projects/windows/shopdb/MACHINE_EDIT_FORM_IMPLEMENTATION.md` - Edit form details - `/home/camp/projects/windows/shopdb/sql/migration_phase2/` - Phase 2 SQL migration scripts --- **Created:** 2025-11-07 **Completed:** 2025-11-10 **Status:** ✅ COMPLETE **Documentation:** See [PHASE2_PC_MIGRATION_COMPLETE.md](./PHASE2_PC_MIGRATION_COMPLETE.md) for full details
