missing the last page of Starfox RP in the role playing section

[Mr. Krystal]

Suddenly, the Mega Krystal Fanart page is fixed. Did you do something DZComposer?

[Orbital Fox]

I saw that... odd.

[Mr. Krystal]

It's not fixed after all. It just means that the difference in posts and perceived posts is about 10.

[Mr. Krystal]

Quotes apparently don't work sometimes, look at one of my recent posts:

"the post you post/page you requested does not contain data"....


*dies*

[DZComposer]

EDIT: *fixed*

You'll have to go back and hit "edit" on all of your affected posts as this fix doesn't scan the database.

2.0.20 turned out to be a buggy release. There may be a problem with the PMs as well, but I don't feel like plodding around in any more php files and I haven't gotten a complaint yet.

haven't had a prb with PM's yet, I will donload that version and see what else may be wrong with it, but I think the worst is over......

I found out the exact number of missing posts. We are missing a total of 208 posts.

There are 27641 entries (at the time of this post, of course, and not counting this post) in the phpbb_posts table.

There are 27433 (at the time of this post, of course, and not counting this post) in the phpbb_posts_text table.

Here's the basics of how these tables work:

When you post, 2 entries are made into the database. One goes into phpbb_posts, the other goes into phpbb_posts_text.

phpbb_posts contains all the information about the posts, such as when it was posted, who posted it, the IP address of the user, whether or not the sig was included, etc.

phpbb_posts_text contains the actual post itself. For instance, the text you're reading right now is stored here. Also, the subject is stored here.

These tables are linked. If there is an entry in phpbb_posts but not in phpbb_posts_text, you get this "missing posts" phenomenon.

I'm not sure why it is done this way, but it is.

I am searching for a way to go though these tables and delete all records in phpbb_posts that do not have a record in phpbb_posts_text that does not involve me reading each of these tables which are more that 20 000 lines a piece.

I think to thwart hackers, 'cus you have to crack both tables in order to crack the data base......rarley dose it help, the just hack the passwords by download ing PhpBB, extracting the dencryption system, then using dos to download the database files......

try looking for a comparison program, that would tell you right off thebat wich ones where broken.....

as far as the mega krystal fanart, you're gonna have to do that manually......by checking the mysql tables......

[DZComposer]

Good news! I talked with my networking teacher (who also teaches the MySQL class) and he gave me an SQL query to try. I'll try it later.

[Ludvig11]

Your not alone I have been getting the same problem, My 4 gig computer would slow to a trickle when coming to the forum and would be lighting fast on other web sites. After I defragged it it started to move a bit faster but not by a whole lot.

Edit: When trying to enter the Rec room I reseved this:

Failed obtaining forum access control lists

DZ, what are you and Dwight doing back there?

[Sideways]

I get that from time to time too.

[DZComposer]

I think GoDaddy was doing some maintenance on their database servers today. CHS also had MySQL problems earlier today.

Anything involving MySQL is a database issue.

Also, some of the speed issuers are related to SFO being on a shared server. Other sites use the web and database servers that SFO does.

Dedicated servers are expensive.

On a side note, I am not too pleased that phpbb spits out the SQL statements in it's database errors.... No bueno for security...

Oh well, phpbb is open source and it isn't like someone can't download it and look at the php....

[Lilacs]

Glad to say ever since we switched of php to SMF I have be getting no error reports and my com blasts through the pages.

[Ludvig11]

Well, emoticons seems to "render" wrong sometimes, like when I scroll in pages..

[Inuyasha]

I had a weird error recently, where it insisted that I'd posted, but I hadn't. I checked, and there was no post in the topic. I had to get out of the reply form for about a minute and then try again, and it worked. 0.o

-Inuyasha

[DZComposer]

What kind of post were you making? A lot of BBCode? Images?

What it kind of sounds like is that the database statement errored out, but the php worked. I would think the SMF devs would put a check for that though.

[Inuyasha]

No, just my usual posts, with this font. No URLs even. Only happened once though; no system's perfect.

All our avatars are missing!

Edit:
When trying to update my avatar, I got this error:
"The attachments upload directory is not writable. Your attachment or avatar cannot be saved."
