Features

This application is not a standalone program. It is a front end to use on your online hosted Dolibarr ERP & CRM software.
The advantage of DoliDroid are :
- DoliDroid is not a duplicate code of Dolibarr, but a front-end of a Dolibarr web installation, so all your online existing features are supported by this application. This is also true for external modules features.
- Upgrading Dolibarr will not break DoliDroid.
- DoliDroid use embedded image resources to reduce bandwidth.
- DoliDroid use internal cache for pages that should not change (like menu page)
- Connections parameters are saved. No need to enter them each time you use DoliDroid.
- Integration with your phone or other applications (Clicking on PDF open PDF reader, clicking onto email or phone launch your email application or launch Android dialer, ...)

Prerequisites
This application need Android 3.0+ and an online hosted Dolibarr ERP & CRM version 3.5+ (for example an online instance provided by one of the SaaS/Cloud hosting provider).
If your Dolibarr is not installed in a cloud or a hosted server, but on your own local computer at home, you must be sure to have setup your ADSL box so you can reach your computer from outside home with an external internet access, on the port where dolibarr run (port 80 in most cases). This is an example on how to do this for O2 customer: http://www.o2help.co.uk/router-port-forwarding/ (replace port 5070 with 80).

Troubleshooting
JSERR001
If you get this error when loaing a page/feature with DoliDroid (including tha login page), this means your Dolibarr installation on server side serve bugged pages. In a common usage of Dolibarr, this may have no visible effect for user. But when used from a smartphone, this make DoliDroid fails loading pages. This is common things to check to solve the problem:
- If you have installed external modules, try after disabling them (some external modules introduce bugs).
- Try also to call login page from a standard PC by adding &dol_use_jmobile=1 as parameter of URL and check you don't have any javascript errors.
- If you installed Dolibarr with the debian package, check into directory /usr/share/javascript that you find a directory called jquery, jquery-ui and flot. If one of this directory is missing (or if all directory /usr/share/javascript) is missing:
- Install missing packages by launching from command line
sudo apt-get install javascript-common libjs-jquery libjs-jquery-ui libjs-flot
sudo apt-get install -f
- Go into config file /etc/dolibarr/conf.php and check you have the following line uncommented (if line is not found, add it at end of file).
$dolibarr_js_JQUERY_FLOT='/javascript/flot';
- If you installed Dolibarr with the debian package, check into directory /usr/share/javascript/flot that you find a file called jquery.flot.pie.js. If file does not exists, ...
Failed to login
If you failed to login, even if you are sure, your login, password (and eventually captcha code) is ok, check to your web hosting provider that url is the DIRECT url and not a rediction to direct hosted url of your instance.
