posting error message

by Chip » Sep 20th 09 10:13 pm

Many users seem to be getting error messages each time posting, and possibly PMing.
Warning: Unexpected character in input: ''' (ASCII=39) state=1 in /usr/local/phpBB3/cache/queue.php on line 3

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ':' in /usr/local/phpBB3/cache/queue.php on line 3


... or something to this effect, and not every time. I am going to contact Ilya about the message. Til then, the posts are still posting and PMs are still reaching their destination.

Thanks Chip! The first few times I was unaware they were actually still going though.

Yep, just had one as well, when posting in the spiders thread. Thanks for the heads-up, Chip!

Thanks for the heads-up. I have this one happen this morning to me in the TeaDay thread. Had to remove a double-post :D

Thanks from me too. I had one this morning and so avoided being lured into double posting. Despite the error message, my post went through.

Edit: make that 2 -- this one did it also!

I'm getting a few of those as well.

Edit: I got an error when posting this lol

I threw a cup of water at my computer and it stopped. :/

This server error is occurring with increasing frequency. Now, every other post. Something is very much amiss.

I believe this was caused by an error in the site's cache. I have updated it and hope that this problem is now fixed.
