The 0031 clublog ALTER hit split settings databases (their qso table
moved to the logbook years of QSOs ago) and the whole open failed —
silently, because the error went to a println the GUI subsystem
discards. The app then ran with no settings store: every panel showed
defaults, 'db not initialized' in Preferences, and operators read it as
their database being lost. Nothing was ever touched: the failed
migration rolled back on every attempt.
The SQLite migration path now tolerates what the MySQL path always has —
plus the one case it never meets: ALTER/CREATE INDEX/DROP on a table
this database legitimately does not hold. And a failed open is written
to the rotating log, where the next such morning can actually be
diagnosed.
An operator reported migrations being very slow and sent a log with three
interleaved runs — and no way to tell one database migrated three times from
three databases migrated once. Each line now carries its target: the SQLite file
name, mysql:<database>, or baseline:memory for the in-memory pass that derives
the schema for a FRESH MySQL database (that one is fast and is not a real
database — in the report it sat between two slow runs and looked like a third).
A pass also announces how many migrations it will apply, so a run that applies
nothing is visibly distinct from one that does.
Backend (Go 1.25 / Wails v2):
- QSO storage on SQLite (modernc) with embedded migrations (0001..0005)
- Streaming ADIF import (batch insert) + WorkedBefore per callsign and DXCC
- Callsign lookup with QRZ.com + HamQTH providers (primary/failsafe routing)
and SQLite-backed TTL cache
- DXCC resolver from cty.dat (auto-download, longest-prefix-match)
- Multi-profile operator identities (home/portable/SOTA/contest) — every
QSO stamps MY_* from the active profile
- CAT control via OmniRig COM on a single OS-locked goroutine, with
bidirectional sync (freq/mode/band/split/VFOs) and Rig1/Rig2 hot-swap
- Settings store (key/value), CAT debug log at %APPDATA%/HamLog/cat.log
Frontend (React 18 + TypeScript + Tailwind v4 + shadcn-style):
- Single-row entry strip with CAT-aware band/mode/freq, RST, Start/End
UTC, per-field locks (band/mode/freq/start/end) for backdated QSOs
- Topbar: live freq (MHz.kHz.Hz dotted), live UTC, band/mode/SPLIT badges,
CAT pill with rig selector and clickable Azimuth pill (rotor TODO)
- Settings tree: Profiles (Log4OM-style manager), Station Information
(edits the active profile), unified Callsign Lookup with Test buttons,
Bands/Modes lists, CAT
- Worked-before matrix (band × mode × class) with new-DXCC highlighting
- ADIF import from menu + Maintenance > Refresh cty.dat
