Strange behaviour of the forum?

Post by Gerhard Michel »

Hi all,

after changing the forum's provider I may log in as usual, but in the HOME section always appears another person than mine! So I was seemingly logged in as 'Adrian Harris' or 'Walter Mackinnon'! When I try to give an answer then the forum shows my original login name. Do you have similar experiences?

Here are 2 screenshots of the occcurrence:

kind regards

I'm having the same problem - I seem to be 'Michael Hilton' or 'Laurent (?)'.

Bit of a TSB thing going on ..... :)

Is the migration complete now ?

I'm having the same problems with images.

If I check my thread on the BARV tracks in the Sherman section, the first two images open to a completely black screen and the one of the polisher displays but is corrupted. The thumbnails are all OK and pressing F5 to refresh Chrome does not make any difference.

The two pics in the Sherman 3D printed thread open to black screen with a tiny white square in the middle.

Hi Adrian, yes, the migration is complete and server configs all done.

Will look into why the full size images of the thumbnails are not appearing. We had this on a few pics on the "old" server as well, but seems to be more prevalent now.

Looks like it might be DPI ?

The RR one you posted recently is 72dpi and works OK.

The one of the rock tumbler is 96dpi and displays corrupted.

The ones which turn up black are 300dpi.

Regards

Adrian.

Not sure it is dpi related. I just loaded an image that was 300DPI and could view the full size version.
We did have an issue initially with the files being transferred as ASCII instead of Binary which is why we had to take the forum offline and re-transfer all the data - so not sure what the ongoing .. albeit limited .. issue is.

I've just deleted and uploaded the first picture in the Sherman BARV thread and the picture now displays correctly when clicked on, albeit the thumbnail is now much larger. The replaced picture is also 300dpi, so it does look like that's not the issue :-(
