Sudo make me an admin. I will fix it.

Can't access my private messages.

General Error

Same.

Ditto...

Also, my car is making funny noises. not sure if it's related, but seems too coincidental

I had a backup script that wasn't cleaning up after itself (like my dog..). Should be ok now?

Fine now, thanks.

Any way to get tweets fixed in Black? Maybe the theme has been updated?

They just say "Loading Tweet" and I have to actually follow the link to see what it is.

Blackhawk · Post by **Blackhawk** » Thu Apr 12, 2018 2:13 pm

Usually that is caused by privacy/ad/script software. Ublock Origin was doing to me until I whitelisted OO.

I disabled Ublock Origin and I still have the issue. Maybe https everywhere too?

Nope - it was Disconnect. Man, Twitter does a sh*tload of tracking with the embedded tweets...

Kudos on moving the site over to secure, but just FYI, it looks like the favicon.ico file is still being served up insecure.

Probably just needs the path updated to https:

Code: Select all

Mixed Content: The page at 'https://www.octopusoverlords.com/forum/posting.php?mode=reply&f=10&t=94939' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure favicon 'http://www.octopusoverlords.com/favicon.ico'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

Thanks I will make a note of it.. I've been dodging updating the board for awhile and I think I need to bite the bullet and just get it done; I'll try and find where it's serving that up insecure when using https.

Multiple people on Facebook are reporting the site is giving them a blank page, all within the last ten minutes.

Blackhawk · Post by **Blackhawk** » Tue May 15, 2018 4:17 pm

Conveying on the behalf of others:

If it matters. IE says page unreachable. Firefox displays an empty page. Chrome says Error 500. Pings and tracerts all work great.

That's why my second thought was firewall rule change when Marty said it was just me.

/edit - JeffV says, in Chrome:

This page isn’t working
www.octopusoverlords.com is currently unable to handle this request.
HTTP ERROR 500

hentzau · Post by **hentzau** » Tue May 15, 2018 4:23 pm

I'm able to get to it just fine from Chrome and Safari, so...there.

Post by **FishPants** » Tue May 15, 2018 4:23 pm

Ok well I did just do a massive update.. Let me go investigate.

Post by **FishPants** » Tue May 15, 2018 4:24 pm

I just did an httpd restart. Did that help?

Conveyed. I'll let you know if they respond.

Firefox works for me but just tried Chrome and it gave me the Error 500.

One said, "Nope."

Another said,

Again, if it matters. Purged history in IE 11 then went to octopusoverlords.com

on [redacted's] post, to avoid DNS, went to 142.44.139.5 and was redirected to 142.44.139.5/forum. Same problelm.

Ok I can replicate this in safari.. WTF.

Post by **FishPants** » Tue May 15, 2018 4:33 pm

Fixed was the cleantalk plugin. I need to do some homework on this. Should be working now.

Yep, Chrome now works.

The funny thing is that I was posting all that from Chrome. Plugin/security incompatibility, perhaps?

I am going to muck with this plugin a bit, don't be surprised if something breaks momentarily.

JetFred · Post by **JetFred** » Tue May 15, 2018 11:56 pm

Only thing I see wrong in Black is that the Steam profile box is wider than the column it's in. That bugs me but it works. Thanks!

I hadn't noticed, but now that you told me I can't stop noticing it.

Thanks JetFred!

I turned the plugin back on, and had the problem once after disabling the old anti spam module.. Did a re-enable and it worked again, disabled again and it seems fine on my side.

Please report if the site goes blank for some people again, I'm a little cautious as I didn't change much to warrant a "fix".

There are some terrible formatting issues when viewing the site on a mobile browser (specifically on my phone).

I'm particular, last post date/times overlap with thread page numbers on each subforum page.

Blackhawk · Post by **Blackhawk** » Tue May 22, 2018 3:28 pm

Advanced search doesn't seem to be working for me at all. I can search in the front page search box, but if I go into the advanced search, I just get a blank page - no results, no 'too short', no 'nothing found.'

Chrome and Digi DarkBlue.

Isgrimnur · Post by **Isgrimnur** » Thu May 24, 2018 10:41 am

Busted for me, as well.

Post by **FishPants** » Thu May 24, 2018 10:44 am

Yeah no error in the logs either which makes it hard to figure out wtf. I think in the fall when this server comes up for renewal (well late summer really) I am going to move to a cheaper option within the same provider (SoYouStart vs OVH -- it's OVH, but at a reduced support tier and older hardware -- costs are about 50% less) and convert to MyBB. PhpBB has run it's course I think, there does not appear to be much support for it from an extension perspective (Under phpbb 3.2) and the forum support staff are neckbearded edgelord assholes.

MonkeyFinger · Post by **MonkeyFinger** » Thu May 24, 2018 8:41 pm

This was a new one for me today:

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 1 second exceeded in /home/octopusoverlords/public_html/forum/vendor/s9e/text-formatter/src/Configurator.php on line 7080

Post by **FishPants** » Fri May 25, 2018 7:51 am

Search should be fixed, along with a number of other errors. CleanTalk plugin was the culprit; not sure why yet. Ticket opened with them, but it seems like this thing might not be as good as we thought it was.

Post by **FishPants** » Fri May 25, 2018 8:16 am

Reinstalled the cleantalk plugin on the latest version from GIT and it seemed to work ok. Let me know if anything is borked.

I would swear I had figured out how to read the site with names and avatars on the left, but I forget what I changed.

Now they're back on the right, and reading the page gives me whiplash. Can someone tell me again what setting to use to get everyone over on the left?

TheMix · Post by **TheMix** » Sat May 26, 2018 7:08 pm

I think it depends on which style you are using. The names and avatars are on the left in Black.
