16 years old on the 22nd? Woo hoo! The forum is already old enough to be a junior in high school!

Who's bringing the cake? I'll see if I can find candles that look like 5.56 rounds...

Re: Are hackers attacking the web site?

Heh! And this was a duplicate post that automatically generated and was accompanied by a debug error (in case anyone wants to see it):

Code: Select all

[phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/includes/functions_messenger.php on line 506: count(): Parameter must be an array or an object that implements Countable
[phpBB Debug] PHP Warning: in file [ROOT]/includes/functions.php on line 1836: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at [ROOT]/includes/functions.php:3268)
So we're still having problems, and I'll bet this is what caused the multiple duplications of Carl's post about pepper spray in prison.

Edited to add: Got another error when posting this one:

Code: Select all

General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysqli ]

Table './texaschl_database/phpbb_search_wordmatch' is marked as crashed and should be repaired [145]

An SQL error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact the Board Administrator if this problem persists.

Re: Are hackers attacking the web site?

If we ever see big photos of Michael Bloomberg or George Soros in pop-up windows, I'd say we'd need to get a big can of Raid and douse the website.
:biggrinjester:

But the errors I've seen seemed to all be related to probable SQL database errors, not denial of service attacks or the kind of direct file injection stuff that most non-NSA-level hacker types use. I have zero information, but my guess would be more likely database corruption. The databases for boards like this that have active members and long histories get really big and can get cantankerous if some little something sets a flag wrong somewhere.
