Comic Genesis Forums

I try to upload comics, but when I upload them to workspace/comics, I get nothing. It's all blank.

I go to clautraphabus.comicgenesis.com and it says December 0, a wrong and impossible date.

claustraphabus.keenspace.com just shows an error page.

HELP!!!

What exactly did you name your file? Did you try running a regular manual update?

And when exactly was your account set up? New accounts are sometimes wonky for a short time.

I named the files by the dates, like 06152006 or something like that, (I did it correctly!) and it was set up just recently...

im actually having a similar problem. my comics wont load up. page edits and things are working fine, but the comic itself wont change, ive run full update several times now and it still wont work.

my stuff is labeled the same as always, and its worked that way before, it just stopped working......

ive also had my account for quite a while now....

claustraphobia and midnightcat, could both of you post a link to your site?

I try to upload comics, but when I upload them to workspace/comics, I get nothing. It's all blank.

If the comics are back-dated (if they are named a date before today), they are moved from /workspace to /public_html when you update. But DON'T edit anything in public_html...

Also, Oualawouzou is usually the one to say this, but do NOT do "Full" updates. They clog the server and are overkill for most purposes.

midnightcat.comicgen.com

the thing is, the comics are back dated, but they wont move......

What Jac said about full updates.

Now, to the problems at hand:

midnightcat, double-triple-check the comic names. Yes, that means going back now and checking them even if you are sure you've named them right: YYYYMMDD. A typo or putting the numbers in the wrong order can screw up the update schedule. Then, go to the siteadmin and make sure you have the auto-updater on. Third, open indextemplate.html and dailytemplate.html and make sure the ***todays_comics*** tag is still there and wasn't mistakenly replaced by something else. Finally, think back and try to remember if you have ever deleted a default file or directory (example: your comic directory in either workspace or public_html, as an example). That should cover all of your bases.

claustraphobia, what FTP program are you using? Have you moved/deleted any file since you got your account? And what do you mean by "it's all blank"? Do you get any error message before, during or after the upload?

i just checked all of that and it still wont show last weeks update...

what are all of the default files i should have? i dont think i deleted anything, but id like to check....
