This is driving me bananas. I thought it was a temporary glitch
that'd correct itself in time, but it's getting worse.
Forum: http://cpanel25.gzo.com/~harmonym/forum/
Cookie path: /~harmonym/forum/
Cookie domain: cpanel25.gzo.com
Cookie name: fud_session_1064315490
Okay. On the main forum page, the new message notification works
perfectly. But when I click on a forum demarcated with a yellow
lightbulb, the forum:
A) lists ALL of the messages as unread, and
B) does NOT show the NEW messages I came to check for.
This is all in tree view.
Only when I click on the thread that has new messages does tree
view list the new, unread messages. If I don't click on each
thread, I'd have no idea if it contained the new posts the light
bulb was alerting me about. (That is, aside from trying to match
the last post dates from the last time I was at the forum, but
that's a pain.)
This started happening about 3 days ago. Before that, everything
was working perfectly.
Finally, even when I click to "mark all unread messages as read",
the next time I enter that particular forum, the durn thing still
lists ALL of the messages and topics there as unread.
Can you help?
Namaste,
FitnessJunkie

Thank you so very much for sharing, Grant. I tried running all
of those myself, twice, and that DID seem to fix the tree view
problem! Thanks again. =)
But as for the new message indicator, that's still acting up for
me. I tried dumping all my cookies in Windows last week to fix
THAT problem, and it didn't work.
I do wish a developer/admin would reply on that one, here. It's
been weeks...
Namaste,
FitnessJunkie

Let see if I understand the problem correctly. You are using tree view for both topic & message views. When you go to a forum with a new message, do you see that message but it is not marked unread or does the message not appear at all?

Yes, tree view for threads and messages.
When I go to some forums with or without truly new messages, ALL
of the messages in that forum display as unread. When I mark them
as read, it'll work while I'm in there, but as soon as I leave
the forum and revisit, the whole list is marked as unread again.
And in one particular forum, still, the messages don't all
display in FORUM tree view. In message tree view, they display
just fine.
Namaste,
FitnessJunkie

Have you noticed the same thing happening on this forum? Or is the problem particular to your forum?

Could you tell me a little bit about your configuration, what PHP version are you using, what database type & version are you using? Are you using any caching mechanism on either the server side (mod_gzip, proxy caching, Zend caches) etc...?

PHP version 4.3.2
MySQL version 4.0.15-standard
Operating system Linux
Apache version 1.3.28 (Unix)
Installed modules:
LWP::ConnCache
FileCache
I'm afraid I don't know what you're asking about the cache info
above. If you'll please clarify, I'll investigate.

The reason I am asking about caches, is it because it is likely they are caching the content you are seeing. Meaning that the 'unread' page gets cached and that's what you see on your next visit. This would explain why you see the problem on your server while I am unable to replicate it and you cannot see it on this server either.

I understand why you're asking -- just not how to find out if
that's the case. Incidentally, I have two forum installations.
They're both on the same server, but only one of them has this
problem. So I'd think it wouldn't be the cache?

It's not easy to find out there are many factors that could be involved...

Hi again.
Can you list a few so that I might investigate/check for them on
my own? Also keeping in mind that I don't *think* it's my cookies
because I tried dumping them a few weeks back, and that didn't
cure the problem.
Thanks again for your help.
Namaste,

Well, you need too look @ headers that your browser sends to the server & the headers the server sends back. If server send 304 response it means that the data you are getting is comming from cache rather then being realtime. You also may have some software that caches output of PHP pages and stores it for a certain unit of time. Meaning that as long as some conditions are met you may be getting absolete content.

Mozilla browser has a plugin called 'liveheaders' that makes this very easy to do. There may be similar plugins for IE or you could use TCP/IP capture utility.
