Beta Site Bugs &/or Errors
Return To Top       

I wasn't sure if you wanted bugs in the general bugs forum for the beta site so I'll leave that to you to move or keep here. I'm just too lazy to navigate much beyond this form and LB's forums.

Anyhow...

In the "Who's Online" page, there are several users who are logged in twice and my name isn't there at all though I am logged in though my name was in the list earlier.

Additionally, I wanted to check something and logged out of the site earlier and used a different computer to access the site and log in. Then my name was on twice though I had been logged out for over 1/2 hour.

Is it possible that users are remaining "logged in" even though they aren't truly on site? Also, users who -are- logged in aren't always showing up in the list. Maybe there's a time lag before a user shows up? But then they seem to stay persistently logged in, at least according to the list.

And...there seems to be something amiss when users are logged in twice with the same log in name.

I'll check in to this. Its kind of an archaic system as it is... So I might not improve it on this site, but will make it right on the new one. But I will check it out tonight.

I've seen people logged in multiple times before now, so that's not a new bug.

I'm getting an error everytime I try to apply to a particular game. I've only tried this one game, so don't know if it is all app games, but since I'm not playing in them, don't want to try it. The game I had issue with was the Sunday Knights game. I got the message that an error had occurred and that the Admins were being notified. No other particulars.

Forum Errors
Return To Top       

Mainly I've found errors concerning time as certain players listed posts show up completely off their actual timezone.

For example, I have your last post Rizzen posted at 4pm, when its actually 2am my time. So unless your in Asia, or the default time for the forum is in that region, the time is WAY off.

Not sure how to fix this but I thought I should bring it up to your attention and see if others are still experiencing it.

Thanks

Yes, I am.

BTW I like the Return to top!

EDIT: And the no bold on read threads, and the extra links at the bottom - tres cool.

I see that J'Dai's post (made just before this one originally) shows the right time, whereas mine and the test post I made and deleted after seeing hers still didn't, which is just plain weird.

RE-EDIT: The edit time is now showing the same wrong time as the post, so something's been "fixed"! lol

The time is correct:
In edited posts
In my Member's Settings

The time is incorrect:
In the posts
In the Forum "Last Post" display
In the "Most Recent Posts" (but that's an old/known bug).

I'll get gilaun, double check the time on the servers, then tonight, or first thing tomorrow morning, I'll go through the code and try to figure out why the times are off.

I'll be doing a ton of fixes on the forums... Its the one area of the site we aren't going to rewrite on the new site... Just make it much much better.

Nice to see online names alphabetized.

The beta site is running VERRRRRRY slow for me today. No socket errors but as slow as the current site.

I just messaged Gilaun... I think its our SQL server.

I'll get Deusin to post the issues we are having with it. We'll be putting more memory in it soon. Afterall, it only has 512megs of RAM! haha... an OS, SQL Server and our database on only 512 megs! wow.

If we reboot it twice a day its pretty good .

(ps. thats why the sites are the same speed seemingly... they are equally slow because they are talking to the same slow sql box)

Game review error: duplicate Top 5 DM
Return To Top       

I tried to review a game on the beta site (http://beta.game-connections.com/members/index.cfm/fuseaction/ReviewDM/id/23042/mid/9920/type/1.htm), and got the Microsoft "Page cannot be displayed" error--even though I'm running Mac Safari. (see end of post)

The problem seems to be that I DID check the "Top 5 DMed Games" box AND the DM is already in my list (position 1)

I get to the page that tells me the DM is already in my list, and clicking the Finish Review button brings me to the error page. The review is not added to the database, either.

Unchecking the "Top 5" box allowed the review to be accepted.

This is new behavior--I have never had a problem with this before on the regular site.

Interesting to see that the people occurring twice (or more) on the list are those with different "available to play now?" times showing. (Take a look at Smithy for instance.) Although I have no idea how you can set it so that you are available to play, say, 6-10pm and 6-11pm on the same day. Maybe *that* is the bug, and not the online bit at all? The available to play thing I mean.

Deusin and I were discussing that we have a bug in the code we re-wrote last night concerning alerts (avialable to play times). We should be able to fix that tonight.

In the display of the "Last Updated Topic" at the bottom of the page.
It is also no longer refreshing with the most recent post.

*wails* NOOOOOOOO socket error! Five past midnight, GMT. Standard 104 thingy (should have copied the text, forgot, sorry).

EDIT: Erm. I *was* on NWC beta. How come I am now on the old site...? I have no idea at what point during my navigations the switchover happened. The socket error may be from the old site after all, I have no way of telling now.

RE-EDIT: I checked through the list. Seems when I hit the "You have a new message" icon, it took me to the old site. So, my bad, this was on the old site. I'll move the post. (MOVED.)

This was exactly what I feared when the 'call for testing' was placed. Gilaun and I bumped into this when we tested the new server some months ago.

Suggestion: It May be that a people need to make changes to their HOSTS files to ensure that their "site testing" remains at the Beta site. I'm not certain, but that's what Gilaun and I had to do previously.

This is an item for Rizzen and Team to determine and coordinate.

I will look in to this now and get some coding done!

I'll see what I can find. I've got a few minutes before friends come over.

I just went through all the links for My Messages (including icon) and none of them point to www.neverwinterconnections... they all use relative paths. So J'Dai is probably right.

Gilaun informed me that we are moving over the NWC domain name some time this evening to the new server. So be on the look out for that announcement and bugs!

Thanks guys, you're helping a ton.

Every time I load a new page, I get a log in prompt popup.

Also a bunch of forum icons are missing.

I'm sure you all are working on it now. Everything is looking great.
