Forum problems

[Cherry_Ripe]

Unfortunately still not working for me, I get:

 

HTTP 500 - Internal server error
Internet Explorer

Is it talking about the server here (my work) or the server there (in chocolate review) sorry I don't really know what it means

[Forth Bridges]

nope
but yuo can still do it via edit

[chocadmin]

Strange. OK I'll get the Mrs to give it a go. Must be a permission issue or something.

[Forth Bridges]

does your wife control the forum> 

[smurfboy]

I think he means there are certain things admin can do that general users can't - therefore if Mrs Choc can do something using her account, the rest of us should be able to.

[chocadmin]

Absolutely right smurfy.

She's getting the 'no permission' error so I'll try and track that down.

[chocadmin]

OK, I've worked out some of the problems - I think.

There may still be issues with editing/deleting posts.

First - it seems the hosting provider is using clustered servers - this is good for performance but because some of my code is rather old it doesn't check that this is going on so in effect you can be instantly logged out. That's the cause of the occaisional permission error, only solution is to refresh the forum page (or depending on how you've setup your login you may need to relogin to the site).

Second - for some reason the author of the forum software changed the path that files were saved in (i.e. they weren't 'per user') I switched this back but because the author also added saving to a temp folder first this caused problems where a user hadn't previously uploaded anything. There were also some general issues mapping the path to files.

 

Long story short I think/hope the image upload is usable, if you get the permission error I'm sorry I'll try and come up with a quick solution to that problem over the coming weekend.

Yay!

Thanks Chocadmin

Chocadmin, do you know why the forum deletes pound signs from posts?

[goldencup]

It's 6.40 pm and I've now tried to post three times without success.

Probably due to the server clustering thats going on. I don't know why the forum is affected (perhaps its because of my login code which isn't written to cope with server clusters). gc did you get the access denied message like 623?

I think it's a recipe 623.
