Problems with Posting on AC
« on: September 20, 2010, 01:31:51 PM »

I don't know if this is the right forum - if not, sorry!   ???

I've been having issues when posting chapter updates.  It takes forever to upload and then will give me an SQL error.  I've attempted to post updates on my laptop, my PC, at school, and now today at work.  All four machines are having the same issue.

Is this happening to anyone else?  Sometimes I think I'm just cursed, lol.

Hmm. You seem to have SQL problems a lot. How are you uploading? A file or in the text box?

I don't know if this is related or not, but I know that when I post (I just paste text in, no tinyMCE or uploaded file), a box always pops up when I click post... I can't even remember what it's asking for now, but I've learned to just ignore it because the chapter will post anyway.  If I click on the box, it doesn't upload right.  I'll let you know what the box says next time I have something to update LOL.

Sorry, I know that was incredibly vague LOL.

I have a lot of problems in general a lot. LoL.  I paste my HTML from notepad into the text box.  I don't know...it's just the last two days it's acting up again.  It's just so weird because it happened on four different computers!

I've got a problem posting too.  I got that SQL error and the chapter didn't post.  So I went to try again and it's there when I try to add it, but it's not showing on the recent page  :crazy:

I've not had this problem before either and am using Firefox.

Hannah had an issue before where her story wasn't show up on the most recent page. I must ponder!

Actually, a couple of hours ago I had an email to say that Evergreenwrite r's story 'Only in my Dreams' had been updated, so I clicked to read and left a review, but it's not on the recent page  :crazy:

Yup this is day three.  I tried my hubby's laptop this morning and got another SQL error.  That makes five computers so I know it's not my equipment.  The chapters are posting, but they're not coming up on the Most Recent page.  All the people that are annoyed with my stories always showing on the first page must be SO loving this right now  ;D

Hmm, I wonder how other stories are coming up?  Oh well, at least we know there must be a problem somewhere and it's not our computers :)

Ok, so I changed some things and it worked fine using both IE and Chrome but for some reason it's still wonky on Firefox. So if you are having those issues, try using Internet Explorer.

I've tried IE 7 and IE 8 just now...A fatal MySQL error was encountered.

I just posted on IE 8 and I had no errors, and it showed up on the Most Recent page right away. :/
