Troubleshooting & FAQ

Common issues encountered when working with the CALYPR platform and its tools.


Metadata is "out of date"

Issue: When attempting to push or validate, you receive a warning that DocumentReference.ndjson or other metadata files are out of date.

Resolution: This typically happens when you have added new data files using git add or git-drs but haven't updated the corresponding FHIR metadata to reflect these changes.

  1. Regenerate Metadata: Use Forge to synchronize your metadata with the current repository state:
    forge meta init
    
  2. Stage Changes: Ensure the updated metadata files in the META/ directory are staged:
    git add META/
    
  3. Commit:
    git commit -m "Update metadata for new files"
    

No new files to index

Issue: Running git push or a registration command returns "No new files to index."

Resolution: This indicates that the current state of your files is already synchronized with the remote server. If you need to force an update to the metadata or re-register existing files, use the specific tool's overwrite flag (e.g., git drs push --overwrite).


Uncommitted changes preventing push

Issue: You receive an error about "Uncommitted changes found" when trying to push data.

Resolution: Standard Git rules apply. If you've run commands that modify the META/ directory, you must commit those changes before pushing.

git add META/
git commit -m "Refining metadata"
git push


Authentication Errors

Issue: Commands fail with "Unauthorized" or "401" errors.

Resolution: 1. Check Credentials: Ensure your credentials.json is valid and hasn't expired. You can download a fresh key from the CALYPR Profile Page. 2. Verify Configuration: Run git drs remote list to ensure the correct endpoint and project ID are configured for your current profile. 3. Token Refresh: If using temporary tokens, ensure they are still active.
