Title: 404 error on profile update
Post by: jhoke on May 30, 2016, 09:30:17 PM
Stu

I'm getting a 404 error when trying to update my form profile (i.e.: add a signature) -- just  a heads up :)

Maybe you don't exist.

Seriously though, I assume you have tried logging out of the forum and logging back in?

Hmm, not sure why, it's stock SMF. However, I did blow away the forums caches earlier today (monthly maintenance) but I was buying Grand's most excellent client at the time, whilst also reading a great book and drinking a pint of cider so it's possible I may have hit the wrong button :)

But I suspect Blick's advice is the best - try caches in browser and log out and back into the forum.

I assume no-one else is seeing this problem? (just tried it here and it's fine).

Logged in on another computer and browser that I've never used for the forum before ... (its my pen testing machine)... cleared cache for good measure prior...

logged in, went to provide edit clicked submit ...

Dang. I just edited my profile and saved the change. It's working for me.

Worked for me, also. But I have also emptied the browsers cache earlier today when I noticed that Stu's 'sig' graphic was broken. Clearing the caches fixed that.

Any particularly interesting info in the location window (URL text box)? Any problems with any other site(s)? Can you reset your modem (Cable/DSL)? Do you have a WiFi router between you and the modem?
Can you find a message in Console?

Can't think of any more questions, Those should keep you busy until I can get away from the computer... :P
