algorithmic modeling for Rhino

I can start a new discussion and add text to it but if I am trying to upload files too, after clicking on the add discussion button I get  an "500: Unexpected Error" error in chrome.

And then my discussion is uploaded without the attached files!

Have anyone faced this issue before? What is the solution? Thanks!

Same here. Tried using a different browser still the same error.

The file is under 5mb.

Don't panic: It happens rather frequently (in tandem - or not - with the following thread replies capability)

what does that mean? what is solution?

waiting for what?

Godot!

This website uses Ning as a social media platform, and it has become increasingly unreliable over the past few months. I do not know what the problem might be or who might be able to fix it.

I would personally much prefer to switch over to discourse.mcneel.com for discussion topics, so if you find it just doesn't work for you over here, I recommend switching to our other forum. 

Hello David,

i remember in one post, you stated this forum is going to move elsewhere. Is there an update?Also are there any solutions, so that the content from here, doesn't get lost?

We're discussing it but discourse doesn't quite allow for the same stuff we have here. Separate plugin groups, video and image gallery, customized personal page (which I'm ambivalent about).

There may be add-ons to discourse which would provide better coverage, but people at McNeel are careful about dismantling this forum in favour of another one.

Clearly we will need to make sure all old discussions including attached files are migrated intact, though it will be difficult to re-associate them with members. We'll also have to figure out how to get all images and videos over there because if nothing else they reflect effort on the part of users and we should not dismiss that effort.

I much prefer the discourse discussion system to Ning, it has better markup, layout and searching. I don't think the switch will happen any time soon though, considering all the difficulties involved.

I see, thank you for your answer.

lately there are many weird things with ning. sometimes uploads files others not. sometimes page loads normally others only through proxy(!) etc. The most recent one is that it stopped sending emails for topics that i am following. checked settings all ok.

I am glad that, for the future platform, you take into consideration both topics and users effort. Lets hope there will be a place to offer such migration options.

Yeah it's been failing me as well a lot. Lots of Error 500 pages, accepting new members only works on odd days when the moon is past gibbous, posting answers to discussion never returns with a Success or Failure code so it's never clear when I can close the tab.

In addition to the recent flakiness, having to manually accept new members and find spammers is a major drain on my time and patience. Discourse handles that much more elegantly.
