Comic not updating

NeroMan · Post by **NeroMan** » Wed Apr 03, 2002 7:40 pm

Strips are uploaded in the buffer and appear to be properly labelled, I tried refreshing the main index and updating all the stuff (well, not ALL the stuff). I dunno what's going on but I'm two strips (four days) behind. Any ideas?

And I'm still searching for a proper place that can host my webcam

The site updates normally (if you can call "a day behind" normal) but not automatically since april hits. so i have to manually kick it in with a whole site update.

things are weird with keenspace these days.wonder what could cause those problems...

I'm getting the exact same problem with my roledie.keenspace.com site.. auto and manual updating doesn't appear to work for the past couple days. I also get an error when trying to change my user info (I know I have the right password).

Perhaps this is happening to new accounts (ones joining in the last month or so?)

I've tried re-uploading my index, refreshing the index, refreshing regular, refreshing everything.

But I get nothing!

What're your usernames guys?

Take a look in /public_html/comics/ and see if the comics that are suposed to be there are. Also check your /webpages/ folder - rouge indextemplates often cause these problems.

I'm having a similar problem with fugue.keenspace.com, except I'm fairly sure it started with my own error

I screwed up dailytemplate.html before last night's update, and after fixing it, the screwed up /d/*.html files were still wrong. I deleted those, deleted the images in /public_html/comics, re-uploaded the whole works, and tried manual updates -- both regular and full --

-- but no dice.

If it doesn't update correctly with tonight's update, what's my best course of action? There are few enough files, I can delete what's there and re-upload them, but will that help?

The new 500 or so usernames all got botched up, so they never got created properly(dont' worry, the usernames are okay.) The situation is being resolved.

Two things got botched up, the member pages (it's not passing the username to the script) and the list that autokeen uses to determine which sites should be updated also seems to have not been updated.

We're able to change our user date as of yesterday, including update times and stuff... manual updates and normal updates not working

I already said in my post but I guess I should say here too =P So am I to assume there is nothing we can do? I mean my page DID auto update at SOME point... I'm not sure how... because it loaded all the tag info the once. Before hand it showed the tags as text (literally ***tag***).

I'm guessing we're amongst the 500? Otherwise there are gonna be a lot of confused people... tried sending a mail merge to them all?

Mine (oneoverzero) isn't updating either, and that really annoys me, as I pride myself on being one of the few Keenspacers who's actually daily. I recently changed my index page (as well as some inner pages), I'm pretty sure I don't have an indextemplate in my webpages folder... I've refreshed multiple times with no result... very vexing.

Okay...

the comic still isn't updating, I figure I'd remove all comics from the buffer and try from a clean slate, kinda.

but now I can't even get into my ftp.

site appear to be down though...

Possible fix...

Kisai, is it possible to bring in HTTP_REFFER out of the ENV variables and read a substring starting after http://members.keenspace.com/

whatever would be left would be the username.

Just a scalable thought.

it got fixed for me, i think you need to give your username and email adress on this thread....

not sure tho

My comic has been updating fine for almost a year now. No means short of manually editing /public_html/index.html will allow it to update. All files are where they are supposed to be and have been verified. I am successfully added to the AutoKeen queue, but no updates are realized by this. The last comic to update itself properly was that for Monday, April 15, 2002. Any help would be much appreciated.

Up until Monday April 8 my site was updating fine now neither the auto or manual update are working. The files are all named correctly and in the proper place. Only difference I've noticed is a message above the usual add to queue message.

Please ... can someone help ?

I'm a little concerned, because my site isn't new. It's been around for 6 months.

The site is http://webcomix.keenspace.com , user webcomix. What's the status?
