Um, help?

Post by Evil Pie »

I manually update my comic, and usually encounter no problems.
Now, however, the updating system seems ...slow. It just keeps me in queue and doesn't update.
Is keenspace just being slow, or have I done something wrong?

You're a newbie. It's always something you've done.

Honestly though, every now and then Keenspace does go through a few slow periods with updating. Give it a little while and see if it doesn't remedy itself. If not, give us a little more information if you can so someone can work out what's gone wrong. Good luck.

Okay, keenspace updated now.
Problem number 2: Nothing happened. I uploaded the comic into workspace/comics, did the manual update and waited. Nothing happened. My site looks no different and has no new comic.

Hmm... what did you name the comic file?

Exact name, not format.

As in you know, 20041231.jpg? Or 20050101.gif?

Did you check your workspace folder to see if the comic is still there? Or is it in your public_html folder now?

The 20050101....
Erm... It may not have worked because the keenspace server is located in a different time zone than me... and the server wasn't in year 2005 when I wanted to update.
If the name's the problem.

And the comic's not in public_html, it's still in workspace.
By the way, it should be year 2005 everywhere now. I tried updating again, but it didn't help.

It works! Finally, it works!
I don't know what I really did, but it doesn't matter since the new comic's up.
Thanks for the help (or at least showing intrest), people!
