FORUM BUGS OR ERRORS? Post here

[Brad]

We just upgraded the forum software, so if you notice any bugs or see any unfamiliar error messages, please post them here.

 

This does not apply to the error message we've seen the last few weeks dealing with arrays and functions.php. We are aware of that error, so no need to report that one. Same goes for generic "Database Error" messages - we get an e-mail when those happen.

 

I'm talking more about just getting strange messages or weird behavior when you are trying to do normal things like post, send PMs, etc...

 

Note that a few of the forum "features" are also currently disabled because of the upgrade. Those will return in a week or so.

i've been getting a lot of these, but never noticed any until the past week or so.

 

 

, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

 

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?

If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

Yep, I just got a message about 30 minutes ago:

Me too, I was freakin out for a minute.

Yeah, those are part of the arrays() error that happens every so often. I thought the upgrade might fix it, but it looks to be a problem with the server cluster, so we'll have to deal with it until we go back to the old server after BF.

 

So just disregard those "no permission" errors - nothing is wrong with your account, you're not in trouble, nothing to worry about :)

Tonight suddenly I can't access the Black Friday forums. I was looking at them this afternoon. Help, I need you guys!!!

[jenilyn]

I keep getting what the others have posted, but I just keep trying and then eventually I can do what I had intended. No big thingy, Id wait a coons age to access what I wanted on here. I lurk alot anymore, but I enjoy coming here. My first stop even before my email!

This is slightly off-topic, but my account doesn't have enough posts to send PMs, so instead of PMing Brad, I'm posting right here.

 

Many of the deals/links from the forums go to "apmebf.com". This website is by default blocked by the anti-spyware program Spybot Search & Destroy (it's placed in the hosts file). I've removed the entry from my hosts file, but it's a pain to do, particularly on Windows Vista. You might consider talking to the creator of Spybot to have this website removed, or forward deals to another domain name.

That domain is the affiliate company's domain, so there isn't much I can do to have it changed. It really shouldn't be blocked by Spybot as it's not really an ad domain, and the affiliate people have tried to get them to remove it and they haven't, so there isn't much I can do.

Fair enough. You might also note that I now see some forwarding to emjcd.com, which is also blocked.
