I've Run Into A Problem While trying to Upload A picture
"Oops! Something went wrong. Please reload the page and try again."
is what i keep getting

Its A Jpeg File Of 50kb large so not a File Size issue
using Chrome On window 10

@V8 @PeteM I'm adding the issue you guys discussed in the challenge thread...

  • Sometimes while posting, the forum will say your reply didn't post when it really did. The only known workaround, right now, is to copy your post and reload the page to check if it posted. Most times it did but, if it didn't, then you can just paste it in again and click 'Post Reply'.
    • I have a theory that this is related to some of the "behind the scenes" tasks being run when you post. Emails being sent, etc. If anything there fails, it tends to squawk.
    • Only likely to be fixed by the Flarum development team themselves when they release their next beta.

Okay... easy enough to post twice and delete one of them if both come up.

Haven't been on in months! Looks awesome, but I'm a but retarded when it actually comes round to using this new format. LOL!

Werner232 lol! Looks like you're managing. Let me know if you struggle with anything and I'll be happy to shoot a quick video to help.

      NorioDS Despite the email, I still looked for guitarforum. Ah well, call me a slow learner!

      And colour me impressed! It's cool, and I'm enjoying it; if this is just the promise of things to come, this is schweeeet!

        domhatch Thanks!

        Yeah if this does well, I only want to grow the community from here. Lots of exciting possibilities but first we need to revive this place ?

          NorioDS
          Well you survived the first decade.. now lets kick this fourom,
          as a relative noob to the site, I'm personally glad to have discovered it and hope a long and prosper future ahead

            V8 Awesome! Thanks for finding this bug. Turns out that it was a SQL error caused during the import. Specifically to do with the number_index column on the discussions table.

            I fixed it for that discussion and tested it by doing a test reply. It worked. I deleted my reply so you can go ahead and play there again ?

            I then fixed it for all other discussions. So we shouldn't see that exact bug again.

            Thanks again for spotting this one!

                NorioDS Cool! Thanks Norio, maybe that was the thing that PeteM and I saw occasionally during the first few days of the new forum?

                  V8 Nope that was definitely different. This was a SQL index issue. So the post never got inserted. What you guys experienced was that the post got inserted but something else caused an error message, making it look like the post never got inserted.

                  That's a logic flaw in Flarum. Essentially, their code is saying: If there's any error at all during the posting process, then return an error. (So even a notification email not being sent for a reply, constitutes an error.)

                  Hopefully they'll fix that in the next major release.

                      Ahhhh, okay - makes sense - it's like a error handling catch all?

                        h'lo NorioDS. i have experienced issues logging off (well, leaving the forum akshully). i try to log off and receive essentially the same message.

                        similar issue?

                        tks

                          NorioDS hey there. so, murphy intervened. my logout (perfectly recorded by useloom which is a smashing tool by the way, big ups for the linkup!), went off without a hitch.

                          i have a feeling the error message i receive comes along when i've been idle in here for a while and then try to log out. i'll try to recreate that situation and post the recording if i receive the error message.

                          hope i'm not wasting yer time

                            Hmmm good theory. I've had that happen before with Laravel where the CSRF token expires if I leave a form open and then try use it later. Could very well be what's happening.

                            I'd appreciate if you could replicate the issue and confirm if that's what's happening. It'll be something I'll pass on to the Flarum dev team to fix. I think they're releasing a new beta in a month or 3.
