I'm 99% sure it was a mismatch between the ctb and the txt files on how many posts were in the thread due to hand-editing a corrupted post and NOT running Rebuild MessageIndex afterwards.


I'm 100% sure it was due to file corruption Wink

We'll see if it does that again...

Running Rebuild MessageIndex looks like it fixed the problem. (Probably a mismatch between the ctb and the txt files on this thread.)

I get fifth page with no posts Wink

EDIT: I think the thread file is corrupted Wink

EDIT2: The reply counter jumps between 60 and 61.

Something really weird is happening in this thread regarding the Modify function - currently trying to modify the most recent post brings up the 'New Topic' screen. Tryinbg to Modify other posts inserts the data from the one just newer. I'm thinking this is probably related to an earlier issue with this thread where some BAD code got in.

In that case it qualifies as a documented WTF.  Shocked


Like in the picture I posted on the another board here... First it said literal WTF and when I finished typing, it said "G-o-d-d-a-m-n b-a-n-d..." Smiley

I think we have enough bugs to warrant 2.6.13 before we switch to 2.7 series version numbering


You're right on that - I've pushed the 2.7 release out a couple months until we get 2.6 sorted.

2.6.11/2.6.12 Search results has a bug related to the 'Remove' link/button as in it doesn't work - it doesn't send the correct info to ModifyMessage.

Also Topic notification has a long standing 'not exactly a bug but not logical' issue: when using the Topic Notification function from search results, you get taken to the topic instead of staying on the search results page. I don't know about you guys but I find that thoroughly annoying.

Neither of these functions are available when viewing Recent Posts/Topics and there might actually be a good reason for that...  Smiley

I think we need someone more knowledgable that I am on how zip and tar do their thing.


I might have 21 years experience in Perl coding but in the end I'm just a dyslexic software designer...

Advanced Backup has the same problem on my testbed.  Cry (But regular backup behaves - so far.)  Smiley


I don't know how hard it would be to modify the current backup code to split compressing large directories to chunks... so it would not timeout...
