Simtropolis 7.3.3 Bugs/Issues Report Thread

jmsepe · August 3, 2014

I still don't experience any of the stated bugs above using Opera.

_{Sidenote: Opera, FTW.}

Samerton · August 3, 2014

Since the latest Firefox update a couple of days ago, I've had no luck at all loading chat. I've reinstalled Flash, cleared out the cache, and tried pretty much everything I could think of. It seems like it's a Firefox issue, and so I've been using Chrome for the last couple of days (IE seemed to have too many issues, such as private messaging not working).

riiga · August 3, 2014

I tried using Chrome in one of my virtual machines with no luck, so there's that. I'd never install it on my real computer for various reasons though, so I guess I'm out of chat until whatever problem with Firefox is causing it is resolved.

riiga · August 5, 2014

So, chat seems to work again at the moment. No changes made whatsoever on my end.

Samerton · August 5, 2014

Still no luck on my end, sadly.

A Nonny Moose · August 5, 2014

Nor mine. No changes made except for some O/S fixes that are irrelevant.

Ocram's Razr · August 8, 2014

I just uninstalled Chrome but now the chat won't work on my computer when using Firefox.

Same boat here, with both Firefox 31,0 and Pale Moon 24.7 (x64). Clicking on "View Page Source" in either browser shows that it's actually giving me an error message:

<body><noscript><b>This application requires JavaScript.</b><br/>Your browser either does not support JavaScript or scripts are being blocked.</noscript>

I do have JavaScript enabled, and while I am using NoScript in Firefox, I have allowed scripts from the chat server. My Pale Moon installation lacks NoScript altogether.

On examination of the page information the only thing I get that might be a problem is that the chat site does not supply ownership information. Still no go. Firefox 31.0

MandelSoft · August 9, 2014

Same for me. Both Chrome and Firefox on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS give this code when I open the page source:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html><head><title></title><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/></head>
<body><noscript><b>This application requires JavaScript.</b><br/>Your browser either does not support JavaScript or scripts are being blocked.</noscript>
<script type="text/javascript">document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="realchat.js$0,0,5,0,0!20130309040838"><\/script>');</script></body></html>

Furthermore, the error log on Firefox gives the following error:

TypeError: controller is null     textbox.xml:479

Chrome asks me to install Flash, which I did a number of times. Alas, no results...

Funny enough, Windows doesn't give any problems yet...

Best,
Maarten

Samerton · September 13, 2014

Just a little heads up: chat's loading fine now on Firefox on my end.

A Nonny Moose · September 13, 2014

Fine from this end too. (Linux).

CapTon · September 25, 2014

This is a message I receive when attempting to access Simtropolis's home page:

Fatal error: Class 'classRss' not found in /home/admin/public_html/forum/admin/applications_addon/ips/ccs/sources/blocks/feed/data_sources/rss.php on line 300

Any idea on what the problem could be?

Cyclone Boom · September 25, 2014

Same here.

I've also noticed this error is shown at the top when browsing a thread or viewing user profiles:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/admin/public_html/forum/ips_kernel/classCustomFields.php:911) in /home/admin/public_html/forum/admin/sources/classes/output/formats/html/htmlOutput.php on line 110

And this when hovering over a username:

Merged this into the Bugs/Issues thread.

CapTon · September 25, 2014

Yep. Experiencing those as well. Anyone got a clue as to what the problem is?

Samerton · September 25, 2014

Accessing the boards directly through http://community.simtropolis.com also has the same issue.

meister1235 · September 25, 2014

And when accessing a thread with the parameter "...?view=getnewpost" in the URL will fail to display the page as well

A Nonny Moose · September 25, 2014

And you ought to see what I get for 'getnextunread'. Couldn't grab it.

Edited September 25, 2014 by Cyclone Boom
Merged to here.

Cyclone Boom · September 25, 2014

Yes, seems like this issue has now spread to the forum index. This wasn't the case as of my previous posting.

I got that, too. I just updated to the latest version of Firefox and I still see that. Now I'm getting this message whenever I go to a forum thread:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/admin/public_html/forum/ips_kernel/classCustomFields.php:911) in /home/admin/public_html/forum/admin/sources/classes/output/formats/html/htmlOutput.php on line 110

At least I know it's not my browser.

RipRap · September 25, 2014

It isn't a browser issue, it is a site wide issue.

It seems from the looks of it, some of the classes are missing, such as the get RSS feeds.

EDIT:This one...

Nique · September 25, 2014

Did they update PHP version on the server?

nathanthemayor · September 26, 2014

For some reason(I think this might be my particular computer but still best to mention) people's avatars aren't showing up on posts and statuses, etc.....

The Emperor of the World · September 27, 2014

Also the searching bar is actually K.O. It shows the number of results but not the results themselves (I'm using google chrome).

A Nonny Moose · September 27, 2014

We seem to be back. Wonder if it has anything to do with the shellshock problem.

This is exacly what I saw too, also ”server-down" sites reported simtrop 100% up and running, all but one site that showed it to be inaccessible and how long it was in that status.

Same here on Safari and Firefox. Please look into this.

The member reputation points won't be available on the threads anymore?
