#1 Continued forum issues.

Post by Alez »

Forum issues continue. Please make sure you refresh your browser.

Until further notice don't connect via https please.

Have set server to force http only.
I think I have found the issue.

EDIT: Finally tracked issue down to a broken module in the board itself called symphony. Tried to replace it but with no luck.
Haven't had a single failure so far since upgrading to 3.2 other than the first install being nuked due to complete incompatability with the auto db backup extension we were using.

All should be good now

HTTPS should once again be pushed by server as default connection.

Finally figured out what is killing us but no idea how to fix it yet. Working on it or will do if I have time in the next few days.
Basically after stripping out all the extensions etc and working my way back up , it's the https or at least the forum does work with posts that have been posted in a mixture of http and https in the same topic.

I'm forcing http via the server until I can figure out a fix.

Any new topics should be fine. Any old topics should be fine. Only effects a number of topics/posts made after 2 feb. The topics where you currently get white screens will continue to do so and it might be an idea to note that or start a continue topic which will not be effected.
At a guess the server is confused whether to reply back to browser in http or https and so throws the infamous http500 internal server error.

On the plus side at least I know what is wrong. Was tearing my hair out.
On another plus side there is now tartan header on Absolute board style so now Pete can continue to be one of the gang :lol:
Tables is ongoing. Uploaded an older version of ABBC box. Will try that with the older and newer versions of tables and see if they work or not. Not making any promises. Fixing forum is priority. :pray:

If you are using chrome ithere is a known issue with the way chrome handles changes to css. Clear Chrome's cache is the cure.
Control + F5 or Control + R. If that doesn't work then:
Control + H | "Clear browser data" | "the beginning of time", select everything.
If anyone else is having issues on chrome let me know and I can write in a mod to css stylesheet to try and clear the issue, but not guarenteed as issue is on your chrome browser, not the board.

HTTPS should once again be the default access point.
