Post reply loads blank

[Giaguara]

When I have posted a reply to some thread, the page loads blank and does not tell me if it posted or not. If I go back to macosx.com/forums the post usually has posted correctly.
I have got this error for the past few days in Safari (2.0.4), from about when the fast reply started to act odd again.

Just like in the attachment.

I have had a problem similar to that were I use the Quick Reply, when I click reply, it replies then it opens up the more advanced reply box and it trys to repost again.

[Giaguara]

Well, quick reply isn't working for me now so those are something I get with slow reply.

Quick Reply does not work for me either. It just continuously says Please Wait, but nothing happens.

I have been using the Advanced post.

p.s. I tried to post first using Quick Reply and it worked. :) could be Scott is working hard on this as we speak. ;)

I have just tried to change my password. Same blank page comes up.

Working here too.

No not working: the post is posted AND I get the 30 seconds between post reply when I click once. Is if the mouse would bounce !

And now I get a white screen in addition... not very stable !

Okay... some threads it works fine in ALWAYS, and some it won't work in. Or it might be related to the FORUM and not the thread, I have not nailed it down yet. This thread seems to always reply for me just fine.

Hmmm.....

[ScottW]

FIXED, found the error, php error.

[Giaguara]

Perfect.

[fryke]

So the quickreply works again as well? (testing...)

(nope, still not working, but the page doesn't come up empty when using the advanced version.) [i want quick reply back! ;)]

It hasn't been working for me for weeks/months now. :/ Anything new about it?

[ScottW]

test quick reply.

[ScottW]

works like a champ here on Safari.

[Giaguara]

Actually it's something weird. Some days it works, soem days it doesn't. I haven't found a pattern. In all forums it works and it doesn't. IT seems totally random, except on some days it totally works and others it totally doesn't.
Last time it was totally not working was last week.

[fryke]

Doesn't work for me on _any_ day in the past few weeks. Could it be something about macosx.com using different domains for people from Europe than America? I remember you mentioning something like that... (testing quickreply now again... nope, doesn't work. as always in the past two or three months.)

[fryke]

Previous post was with Safari 2.x fully updated (no 3.x beta for me right now) on Tiger (fully updated as well). Now testing Firefox. Hitting quick reply...

It worked! But sent me to the forum homepage instead of the thread I was answering...

[fryke]

Now testing IE7 on WinXP (Parallels) on the very same machine. quickreply... works as intended, sends me to the right page, showing the new comment, although it gives a little error icon with a strange sounding (German) error message. something like "line 360, character 1, style is zero or no object". my translation could, of course, be off. either way: It's obviously

good on IE7 on WinXP
halfbaked on FireFox 2.x on Tiger
bad on Safari 2.x on Tiger

for me here.

[Giaguara]

No, I'm in Europe now. I was thinking some day that maybe it works on even or odd days and doesn't on odd or even ...
At work it seems to work more often than not. But then again I don't post every day there, and would be sometimes posting in Windows or Linux ..

Safari 2.x fryke?? Are you as Sogudi&Stand addict as I am? :D

I've got those installed (Sogudi and Safari Stand - those caused issues in Safari 3 so staying back). I don't know if that makes a difference ..

[Satcomer]

Well I am test in Safari 2.0.4.

It works for me in Safari.

[Satcomer]

Here is my Test using Camino 2007080914 (1.5.1) and it works here also.

When I click on the macosx.com thread update notification email link I am taken to a blank web page. Also when I click to submit a reply to a thread the same happens but my reply isn't compromised.

As I note, this was happening to others almost exactly one year ago?

*Twilight Zone Music Plays*

I'm using Safari 3.1.1 but my Standard Account type doesn't check for software updates automatically so I guess that's the first thing I should do now ....

[nixgeek]

I've had the same thing happen to me as of yesterday with Firefox 3.0 on Windows, GNU/Linux, and Mac OS X 10.4.11. It also happens on Safari 3.1.2. The blank page appears when I reply or click to go to the last comment of any thread. The page only appears normally when I click on the title of the thread. Even logging out and back in hasn't resolved the problem.

[g/re/p]

Still happening - i was preparing to post the error and i saw this thread.

[g/re/p]

After making the last post, i got the blank page - and when i clicked the back arrow on safari the post showed up.


....weird!

[g/re/p]

It also loads a blank page when you click the last post icon.

[VirtualTracy]

Does it happen on any other forums you may frequent? I don't know if it's random but so far the email notifications don't work but the reply to post seems to be working again for me ....

[Cheryl]

It happened to me yesterday and I thought it was just a quirk. Not. Email links bring you to a blank page. Time to alert Scott.

[Satcomer]

Same here on three different browsers (Safari, Firefox and Camino).

[ScottW]

Appears to be an issue w/ the slave DB. Turning it off seems to have resolved the issue as far as I can tell.
