5.0.2: Messages and Recall Board Tabs are now "Unknown" and blank

Situation
5.0.2 - For some reason the Messages tab (tab no 2 on opening screen after login) and the Recall Board no longer display messages. The tab goes from the title of “New” to the title of “Unknown.” I recently installed working SSL certificates to button up the security … this may have brought about this problem. Other features/tabs of OpenEMR seem to work fine as far as I can tell.

Logs
The error log is unremarkable. However, the access.log shows what appears to be some GETs from the timeout frame:

same result with HTTP and HTTPS. I’m not able to get any error messages as to what is wrong, even in “debug” mode.

hi @Ralf_Lukner, do you see anything in the console when you toggle web developer tools ?

It looks like a MedEx service related issue. If I uncheck that service (uncheck the enable box in the Globals for MedEx), everything starts to work again (I am able to see messages, recall board, etc.). I noticed that their web site SSL certificate was not valid today (usually it is) so maybe it’s an SSL certificate related issue (expired?) or something else related to recent updates/improvements in the service that perhaps broke something.

Hi Ralf,

The certificate is updated.

How’s it now on your end?

Open the SMS Bot to force a full refresh with MedEx.

Everything works again!! It’s a slow day in clinic without patient reminders :wink: .
Thank you, Ray.
