I do not know if its just me , that I have issues , the last hour .... my cookies in the forum does not work,
and I get messages from server about bud login ....
I had to log out and in , and to log with deferent logged time settings , so to force my login to be some how successful..
Your session timed out while posting. Please try to re-submit your message.
-
Yep, I just had this appear for me. It took 3 submissions for it to be accepted.
At least it is better than my ISP, if you time out whilst replying to the forum it totally wipes your painstakingly typed posting!
-
Oh good, it's not just me then :-)
I've been getting:
Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again.
as well as the session timeout out while posting message.
as well as problems with unread messages not showing up.
And I don't know if there's been a change with the Google Ads at the top of the forum,
but either I haven't been paying attention or they look different now. And few of them
seem to have any electronics connection -- I thought Google targeted ads better than that!
I've had no luck posting anything with high-resolution photos either -- don't know if this
is related or not.

I got that myself this morning.
Sorry, no idea what caused it.
I didn't touch anything :->

TEST
-
I've had it and I've had the server refusing to respond numerous times over the last few days on 3 different computers, so unless you have been playing with your setup I suggest you start giving your hoster hell as it's not the sort of thing one normally expects from a host.
The error was 505
-
Still getting "Your session timed out while posting. Please try to re-submit your message."
"Show unread posts" still seems to show nothing. If I click on
"Click here to try all unread topics", that seems to work just fine.
Well, I guess hoping for magic healing overnight didn't help.

Same problem here. I was trying to update my signature and some session id errors appeared. :'(
I had to logout several times and delete my cookies to change it. ;D
And when trying to post this message the error says:
The following error or errors occurred while posting this message:
Your session timed out while posting. Please try to re-submit your message.
Maybe a mysql tables defrag or fix would correct this problem.
-
Test.

It is an database problem .. 100%
And yes all this truly irritating problems , its bad service from the Host server.
By my clock , the forum looks in trouble, for at list 17 hours ... so far .
-
i got the error when i tried to upload a big file (5++MB)... and surprisingly, i got this error in this very mean posting !!! (no file attached) :o something is really went wrong.
-
I think dave needs to ask his host what the hell they are playing at, it's like they are limiting his service or something
-
Something I'm facing is when pressing "Show unread post since your last visit" it works Ok, let's says it shows 9 unread post, then I read one of the posts, and press the option again and no unread messages appear, like if I read all of them.
Annoying to have that problem.
-
another error asking me to logout and in again.
another timeout error! really annoying.
have to reload the topic and reply post quickly! (copy paste trick)
-
When I was trying to delete all unread messages this showed:
Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again.
It should say: "Please reboot your SQL server and try again. Have a nice day!" ;D
-
I keep getting errors too, I've had a server not found error 503, this is worrying, looks like we all know which host not to use in future
-
Yes I'm having problems too, as others have stated "No new posts" is a typical result of viewing posts since last visit.
I thought it was a result of the site reaching "critical mass" then self imploding ;D (one of the comments made by Dave in a recent radio show)
LOL, and trying to post this reply - your session has timed out
-
Sorry guys, I don't know what to do.
I'm getting forum errors all the time, and can't do any admin functions.
I'm working on it...
I don't know if it's related to the 503 errors, I suspect not as it seems to be a common problem with SMF.
Dave.
-
Seems like it is a problem with SMF. Is this a fresh install of 1.1.11 or was it updated from a previous build? In version 1.1.7 and .8 they had a lot of trouble with this happening with a security release for that version. I think it has to do with the theme and the index.template.php. You might want to wipe that out and replace it with fresh files and see what happens.
-
Problems here too Dave. In fact I only just managed to get here to post this (I hope it posts.)It's taken around 2 whole minutes just to get here. I quite often use the site below to check if there's a problem with a website and it showed the EEVBlog as being down for quite a while :( I've also had problems posting throughout the day too.

Things seem to be, uh, less bad tonight.
I'm not getting timeout errors, but when clicking on an unread message, I
suddenly got dumped back to a login screen. I was able to log back in
and continue on, but that was weird.
Maybe the physical disk the forum is on is having I/O errors? Although
I would expect the hosting company to monitor for that. Actually, I'd
expect them to run everything in virtual machines, and move the virtual
machine if the physical machine is having problems :-)

-
I've applied a repair fix and it seems to be working again. Need to flush your cookies and try again.
Dave.
-
Well, as long the problem its known , we will wait for the upcoming fix ..
If its a software bug , it will cause trouble to many forums based on it, so its not just this one.
-
bravo alpha roger roger lima alpha
-
I've had a few problems too but it normally works after pressing the post button several times.
-
Better. So far so good today. This past week the 503 errors were getting longer in duration.
-
I've had the problem a couple of times tonight in trying to post.
Logged out/in and could then post.
I tried to modify the post I'd just made and got the same error. - very annoying.
-
It has now been elevated to a "Level 3" problem with SiteCloud. I guess the Level 2 monkeys had no idea.
Dave.
-
Is there any way to turn the clock back :)
Like, getting back to the older version , what ever it was ?
-
TEST
I've removed www from the forum address to see if it improves things. Might have to log in again.
Dave.
-
yea had to log in again and that failed first time
-
bravo alpha charlie tanggo!

I know you guys probably know this stuff, but I thought I'd post it up just for kicks, and in case someone gets confused.
Feeling a bit weird this morning, ran out of coffee. :P
-
The forum has been going really slow for me on and off...The last reply I made to a thread took a long time and it logged me out for some reason straight after ???
-
thanx. i dont know all the stuffs, just heard it from movies. so i just put out random words :D
I know all the stuffs , but do not use them for more than 10 years .. ;)

Today , after of 5 hours or more of testing , the forum engine looks again totally healthy to me.
For some reason , the latest fix created on my Firefox passwords list , an new ( second) EEV login record.
I erased both , did an new login , and by this way only the latest successful login, are stored in my passwords list.
Its advisable to do the same ... :)

Yes, I changed the site from www.eevblog.com/forum (https://www.eevblog.com/forum) to eevblog.com/forum
I don't know if this is what fixed it, I doubt it, as it seemed to be working a fine for a bit before I did that. And for me to actually DO that in the admin meant it was all working again!
So now you'll have two cookies or whatever.
Dave.
-
For some reason I have to re-login every time I visit the site. Hmm...
-
What happened to me was an healthy auto login by the cookies ,
but there was markings for " Show unread posts since last visit."
But the list was empty ...
Logged off and on , and it worked ...
So there is still some hiccups , lets give some time to Dave, so to deal with them.
-
The only problem I've had recently is the "Show unread posts since last visit." link no longer works for me.
-
It seems to me as if the forum isn't storing any cookies for me. If I navigate away from the site I always have to login again! I am using firefox and checked all the obvious. Never had this problem before...
-
yes I have cookies issues too .. "Show unread posts since last visit."
-
Yeah, I'm having the same problem too, "topics since last visit" doesn't really work any more.
Let me check, I've probably changed something whilst trying to fix the error issues...
Dave.
-
Ok, try now. I've turned on the "local cookies" option.
Dave.
-
Yeah, I'm having the same problem too, "topics since last visit" doesn't really work any more.

does not work for me either and i'm being told my session has timed out when trying to post
-
The "show unread posts since last visit" link now works for me.
-
works for me too ... :)
