 I've been using HostForWeb's free/shared CHAT server for some time now. I've noticed a few glitches, such as users being randomly (occasi. Yet very briefly, and then were back in chat like nothing happened (no loss of chat history). I'm curious what experience anyone has had with the free RMS from HostForWeb |
Anyone? |
Issues continue. After spending hours convincing HostForWeb that The site, and it's visitors cannot connect to their RMS, They decide to try placing the IP address of their RMS into the settings panel, in place of the hostname. Progress, now we can connect...but...oh dear...There are no chat rooms. Oh well, I'll just re-create them. "Error Creating Chat room" Randomly appears when trying to create rooms. I finally get our four original chat rooms created, I check back an hour later, and...where did the rooms go? They are all gone, and a user has created one room, that is sitting there. My suspect? The "Creating a chat rooms, destroys other rooms" but that BoonEx CLAIMED WAS FIXED IN D7 but never was even investigated. (I know because I still see this happen on some D7 sites), OR the RMS server is randomly deleting rooms. This may also have something to do with the fact that HostForWeb's RMS server never even checks XML.php with a GetRooms request, and nor does any of the client Flash instances, when using the RMS. Meaning that the chat system CANNOT have ANY idea what rooms the database says should be available, when using HostForWeb's RMS. Does anyone have ANY thoughts on this? |

thefakenet,
Go into your Administration panel, then go into Advanced Settings, then go into Template and disable all cache on your dolphin site. This is, Java (js) = disabled Css = disabled html = disabled images = disabled
Please post back and tell me if the issue has gone. Best Regards, Lee (www.vilayer.com) |
@DosDawg - An expert in your feild, and when presented with a problem on a free product, all your brain can muster is a smart ass remark? I've seen other posts from you, I'd expected better. Shouldn't get my hopes up like that. lol. @Vilayer - I've disabled and cleared all Cache features, No effect. (As well as clearing all browser cache to be sure) |
