PM issues and errors

[john]

Had a couple of reports from users of seeing error messages when doing something (?) with PMs. I've tweaked a couple of settings which hopefully should / might help.

However if people do see any errors it'd be useful to get full details so I can try and address the issue. I'd need

-Error message.
-What you were trying to do.
-Who was the PM from / to.
-How many PMs you have stored.

cheers

Probably unrelated but i have 3 pm's in my outbox which are months old, obviously unread BUT i have deleted them before and they re appear!

Andi have found the site unresponsive at times over the past couple days.

I got that message too the other day, sending a pm to BarneyBallbags. Is the little notification box new? Don't remember seeing it before - I think it had something to do with the error message as I clicked straight through to the message instead of clicking the box. I get that error message if I click on the message(which says it is unread but it isn't!)

Is Andi the man in your avatar and alter ego? Noticed a couple of issues myself. Think it was related to the host / network rather than site. If it occurs again will look into it further.

The PM thing has me stumped still. Can those who had the issue indicate when the messages were sent and recieved? Better still if someone wouldn't mind me accessing their account to troubleshoot properly that'd be great. Despite the lies spread by some I do not access users PM boxes.

Suppose the main thing is PMs are still working ok for most. They are for me at least, assume ther'd be more complaining if they weren't.

Hahaha! Yeah he needed a name!


I have had the same error message but cant remember how i kept getting it (2 or 3 times). It could possibly have occured when i tried to delete said pm's above.

Sounds like we've all been sending too many PMs and tipped the total number over teh max value for and unsigned bigint... although if that's a 32 bit integer then that would be 4,294,967,296... which would seem unlikely. More so if it were a 64 bit integer. Anyway, not adding value here so shutting up.

I think i now have 4 in my outbox which do this.

I like to resend them on occasion for giggles!

Yup, I've got 3 in my inbox that I can't open, All from different members and all showing the same message posted above.
