Based on observations made by me and another forum user (see thread https://www.limesurvey.org/de/foren/german-forum/112583-datenverlust-fragebogen), it seems that data loss only affects answers given to questions with a Relevance equation or if they are mandatory (as observed by the other forum user). |

I am very sorry but the bug report is useless like this. Feel free to reopen the issue or open a new one once you can reproduce the issue reliably. |

That is the real problem with this bug - reproducibility. Therefore we can not provide a test survey. I was hoping a core developer could ge involved in the forum thread and give us (we are developers as well) some idea on how to get to the ground of the problem (add logging, debug informations etc.). One forum participant believes that the problem occurs due to an interrupted connection to the database. I, however, think it comes from a problem with the session. Do you somewhere save answers to the database from the sesssion? Where (class, file ) does the save operation occur? Do you use transactions? |

Another thing we observe - we create a db backup each night at 2 o'clock and are usually able to restore the missing answers from the backup the day after. Therefore I conclude, that the loss of answers happens, when the participant opens the survey (maybe a new session is started then?). We are using tokens for authentication, with response persistence and allow update of responses. Furthermore we use the full index for navigation. |

There is not really such a thing as "sporadic" or 'random' as LimeSurvey has no timing-related functions that would make this possible. Please only reopen only if you were able to really reproduce the issue in reasonable manner. |
