ILX 2.2

Lynx works fine for me but Links gives me a 404 after I hit the Login button on the Login screen:

Apache Tomcat/5.5.20 - Error report

                                       HTTP Status 404 - /ILX/LoginControllerServlet
   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   type Status report
   message /ILX/LoginControllerServlet
   description The requested resource (/ILX/LoginControllerServlet) is not available.

Wait, WHAT? I didn't post that!

HAHA oh wait sorry that was just your example, sorry

:D

I have used Lynx to access ILX, in the past. Don't think I have since ILX2 appeared.

I have a mor serious problem at the moment: I've just upgraded my home PC from Gentoo Linux 2.6.16 to Gentoo Linux 2.6.20 - and, I can't see ILX any more, no matter what browser I use.

If I do a packet capture, I can see the packets that the ILX server is sending to me. But, they get dropped somewhere in the networking layers of the kernel, and never get passed through to applications. I've tried using browsers; I've tried typing HTTP commands at port 80; and all the packets get dropped by the kernel.

I'm going to try compiling a vanilla Linux kernel to see if the problem is in the Gentoo patchset. But something has changed in Linux in the past year or so that doesn't like the packets the ILX server sends - but seems to have no problems with any servers anywhere else I use.

Internet Explorer 7 has a new interface that shows more of each webpage you visit. The streamlined toolbar makes it easier to add websites to your Favorites, search the web, clear your history, and access the other tasks and tools you use most.

Forest Pines, see this thread: Can you unblock HTTP from 65.57.245.11?

Ty Stet - I will try that next time I am on my PC

Yep - that's the issue I was having. I can access ILX fine if I disable TCP window scaling.

still getting that error message in firefox every now and then

any ideas what the issue is?

HEY WAHT ABT EMBEDDING VIDEO WOULDNT THAT BE FUN !!! :) YAY

errrrm ok i am getting this message when i try to post

ILX 2
7648596109056869822: Failed to insert message.

but only in firefox, works fine in opera and ie

This is now happening to me in Firefox as well.

We've seen that problem a couple of times, aye. A couple of people had success by nuking cookies; one guy said it went away when Firefox was started in safe mode. I wonder if there's a common FF extension that's somehow messing things up?

Forest Pines: that other problem should be fixed now.

been like this all day for me now.

if its any help i also get a blank screen on the http://www.ilxor.com/ILX/LoginControllerServlet page, altho it does seem to still log me in

so maybe that does point to a cookie issue, i dunno

yup, same thing for me. I deleted all of my ILX cookies and started again, but that didn't seem to help either. I'm going to try disabling some extensions and see what that does.

You can try starting in safe mode to safely kill them all, before trying the one-by-one:

ok nuking cookies and restart didnt help

sigh shall go ahead and list all my exts

Jesus!

Hey one of the ones I just disabled did the trick!

Hang on, I'll get the list

Currently disabled:

Dictionary Tooltip 1.1.2
Master Password Timeout 0.2.5
Slashdotter 1.8.9
Stealther 0.99
TrackMeNot 0.5.15
User Agent Switcher 0.6.10
Woot Watcher 0.5

I'm thinking it's TrackMeNot

Forest Pines: that other problem should be fixed now.

It is - and the site feels much faster now, too! Hurrah!

It'll be stealther. If it interferes with your referrer, it'll stop the code that checks you're trying to post from an ILX domain. I disabled that a while back, because it kept turning itself off and on seemingly randomly.

er "that" == Stealther.

test

test

Nope, it's TrackMeNot!

Coo ur. Well there you are. I'll update the FAQ later.

and it is indeed trackmenot. (cos i dont have stealther)

KUDOS GOOD SIR

Thanks guys.

Haha! "Track me not"!.. Yes, that will fuck it up properly. ILX checks your referrer to see if you're coming from one of the three legal URLs.

Top one, Keith!

Are the Sandbox threads not integrated with all the others? I was futilely searching for a thread until I realized it was on the Sandbox, and found it there instead.

keith knows how to make a ddos less trivial!

I will give props in tallinn next week

No they're not, but I spent a very pleasant couple of hours trawling through all threads there (I was trying to find the ILX reaction to Catherine Tate in Doctor Who the first time round). Seconded for any request to move them over here (I can't remember if that was possible or not)

Hah, that's exactly what I was looking for too.

YES ME TOO LINK?

http://www.ilxor.com:8090/ILX/ThreadSelectedControllerServlet?boardid=141&threadid=721

(looking at it logs you out of here though, bah)

thanks!

BYEEEE

can we get back all date-related searches ordered by board then date? searching for all threads last changed on a given day or started in a given month brings back results for all boards which is too much information (have to filter out the 90% of boards you know are wrong)

We REALLY REALLY need changeable screen names back. I don't care what it takes, or even if it's not possible, but we need it anyway.

OTM it is a beautiful and special thing

as soon as we have changeable screen names mine will be "i dont feel tardy"

Mods and admins, remind me again about changeable screen names. Is it impossible, or just difficult? It's the best feature of old-ILX that we don't have anymore. Bring it back!

I think the thing is that it eats up a lot of data

er, the data involved eat up a lot of server space, that is

so many punchlines are lost by having the registered name instead of the joke email showing on old threads

guys, we have auto-jagger googleproofing, let's cut some slack

wait do we really
