Alright, my comic posted today after another manual update attempt. Seems to be working again.

It seems that if I leave it for around 6-10 hours in the FTP, basically go to sleep and then trigger another update once I get onto the computer the next day, it updates.

Which still makes it late, because previously I was holding to a 2-in-the-morning-my-time update schedule... I mean, it's still the right DAY for my update, but it is annoying. I haven't had an update go through when it was finished and I tried to cue it the first time since my first post here. And I do try more than once. Hopefully it'll have cleared up by tommorow's update, because I did fix a mistake on Sunday's and threw that into public_html, and it did replace the image in a minute.

I'm now running into the same problem. Lab Bratz http://labbratz.comicgenesis.com isn't updating this morning through the normal channels.

Neither is my comic. I just read through this thread, and it looks like some people are having luck with waiting a long time, both with and without continued attempts at updating. Something is definitely screwy, and I hope it gets fixed soon.

EDIT: I tried one last time, and a Regular update went through, though a Full update didn't just five minutes ago. *shrug* Yay?

For me it's like it's only letting me make any sort of manual update once every 24 hours, or so

Well, Saturday's strip finally went up on Monday. Then today's strip updated with no trouble at all. I hope that means it's fixed. Anyway, I don't need to update again for a few days, so I'm okay for now.

Still not fixed. Relatively annoying because I have to update three times a week, and I can't get it up when it's supposed to be up on that day--I always miss my auto update time, and just manually update, and then it won't go through and I have to hit the button the next day at around 6 or so. :roll:

I appear to be having the same problem.

I missed last nights auto update, so when I put my comic into workspace/comics I did a Regular Update twice last night, and once this morning (About two minutes before posting this) to no avail...

Same here. I tried to update it this morning, several times. Didn't work, either with regular update or any variation thereof.---Al

I, too, am having difficulty.

its particularilly annoying since i'm just getting started and working out the kinks in my site requires alot of trial and error. Its like trying to code a program and only being alowed to compile once a day.

My issue is this, I can upload a new indextemplate.html and dailytemplate.html. I can access those html files through my browser, so I know they are there and correct. Nothing I do however, seems to generate a new index.html based off of my corrected indextemplate.html

oddly enough, I managed to update it once this morning, but since then I've been getting nothing.

Well, gives me time to generate a buffer while I get the site going I guess, but still. Inconvenient.

It broke down again last night, but now works this morning with a second update attempt. It seems to generally work mid morning to mid afternoon and breaks down late at night.

I'm experiencing the same thing, though I've been trying to upload a new site layout. No triggered updates work at all, though I can upload comics just fine (and instantly at that).

The files that I want viewable are under the 'workspace' folder, and when I download them, I get the correct files, so I know that my uploads are going through correctly. However, I went to the 'Public_html' folder, where I noticed that I can see another set of pages (indextemplate.html, etc.) so I went ahead and downloaded the indextemplate.html under 'public_html' only to discover that it was a layout I hadn't seen in over a year. I tried to delete that file and the others that were there but was denied permission to do so.

I might add that my Workspace folder has mysteriously moved inside my Public_html folder..... It seems that a few other people who are having difficulties updating have the exact same thing....Hmmmmm......

Okay folks...

First of all, having a /public_html/workspace folder IS NORMAL! Please don't touch anything inside of /public_html. That's an old AutoKeen design flaw.

Also, it looks like it's hanging up on one comic. Checking into that now...
