FlossyTheSmart Posted July 14, 2011 Posted July 14, 2011 Soooo.... This one is a bit strange. Moments ago I was trying to reply to THIS thread, but after I logged in, it said "You don't have permission to post in this thread". Odd, I thought, but I went back, closed the tab and re-opened the thread. It was then that I noticed I was logged in as "The Rog Man". What!?! It seems like it knew that was not who I was, because I wasn't able to post, but it was surprising none the less. Using Firefox 5, Windows 7, but this one seems very very odd to me. It has since stopped happening, but I tried a few times and it kept happening (Logged in as myself on the home page of CsC, then Rog Man on threads). Definitely look into this! Quote
AHZELA Posted July 15, 2011 Posted July 15, 2011 I just 3 seconds ago was viewing a post about a door indicator light remaining on while all doors were shut, and i looked to where my name is suppose to be and it said "logged in as Crystal" ??? I just pushed "back" and it went away... I too use windows but not 7 on this computer... Quote
lebikerboy Posted July 15, 2011 Posted July 15, 2011 I've been CANMAN and bilgladstone in the last few minutes...talk about multiple personality disorder!!! Quote
FlossyTheSmart Posted July 15, 2011 Author Posted July 15, 2011 It seems to shuffle you between the other logged in users, so at least it isn't totally random... Quote
Speedie Posted July 15, 2011 Posted July 15, 2011 Hmmm.... very strange - sure you guys aren't sharing the same pills?I will watch for more reports - might need to do some database compression/rebuilding.Cheers,Cameron Quote
Speedie Posted July 15, 2011 Posted July 15, 2011 Apparently I am now Canman - I will do a rebuild a bit latter.Cheers,Cameron Quote

Alex Posted July 15, 2011 Posted July 15, 2011 I'm still Alex... Darn! I was hoping I could have a bit of fun here. Gee, I didn't realize (XXX) was a cross-dresser with a drinking problem and hates bunny-rabbits! Quote
FlossyTheSmart Posted July 16, 2011 Author Posted July 16, 2011 Looks like it is still happening today. After sending a PM, I ended up in "PNP2"s PM inbox. Quote
Speedie Posted July 16, 2011 Posted July 16, 2011 Yeah - there seems to be some server issues - I went to do attachments and no dice - I will do a shut down restart latter tonight - but I suspect it is an issue with the server itself not the forum. So for the interim - enjoy the ride - not every day you get to be somebody else.Cheers,Cameron Quote
Speedie Posted July 16, 2011 Posted July 16, 2011 Did a warm start of the site - let's see if that helps - it is behaving very strangely.Cheers,Cameron Quote
quirky1 Posted July 16, 2011 Posted July 16, 2011 Without logging in, if you refresh either the forum or home page enough times you will eventually be 'logged in' as one of the users currently logged in. Quote
Speedie Posted July 16, 2011 Posted July 16, 2011 Seems bit better this morning - They may be having some network issues or something at the ISP - I managed to get some attachements up so that is an improvement.Cheers,Cameron Quote
MikeT Posted July 16, 2011 Posted July 16, 2011 I am alternatively logged in or out......each time. Pretty bad today! Quote
Speedie Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 Did about all I can do with out bringing the site down - might have to do that still to do a rebuild at the database end.Cheers,Cameron Quote
bilgladstone Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 Happened to me for the first time. I was mysteriously logged in as someone else! Browser refreshed and I'm me again. Phew! Quote
Speedie Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 I am checking at the database level - seems to be some errors for missing files for skins - working on finding the root cause.Cheers,Cameron Quote
quirky1 Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 The problem I reported earlier can be duplicated with the new template. Quote
Speedie Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 There a few issues going on besides the other one - I am going to try a shutdown latter when there is less people on the forums.Cheers,Cameron Quote
Speedie Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 ps - clear your cache contents too - that can effect the way the site behaves.Cheers,Cameron Quote
quirky1 Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 Just encountered the same problem after the reboot. Both cookies and cache were cleared before the test. Quote
Speedie Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 Unfortunately my time is a bit constrained the next bit so it may be a few days until everything is corrected. I will do some more research on the issue as the usual fixes haven't resolved everything.Cheers,Cameron Quote
Speedie Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 Made some changes - please let me know if the issues re-occur. IPB is funky - the presentation layer (what you guys see) affects a lot of stuff so if something goes astray it has big effect. The data in the background is doing okay though so don't worry about that.Cheers,Cameron Quote
Britsmart Posted July 18, 2011 Posted July 18, 2011 I keep being logged in as someone else as well :(Brit, Mathieu and Marty Car Quote
smartzuuk Posted July 18, 2011 Posted July 18, 2011 Just happened to me, I was Mike T for a brief moment. Quote
