Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted November 17, 20195 yr A few days ago, the automatic embedding of videos from YouTube stopped working. Now when I copy the link, I get the following error message: But, if I manually set up a code (like the Forum automatically did until the other day)...for a specific video it would be this code: <div class="ipsEmbeddedVideo" contenteditable="false"> <div> <iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/oMDJI5_o0LI?feature=oembed" width="480"></iframe> </div> </div> ...everything then works ok: You can see the link above (that Forum didn't want to automatically embed), and the video below that shows when I manually post the code. Has anyone else had a similar problem, does anyone have an idea how to handle this?
November 18, 20195 yr It would seem to indicate that when your server makes a call to Youtube, it's getting an error response back. I couldn't say more than that without investigating. You may or may not have logs in the system logs indicating the problem.
November 18, 20195 yr Author @bfarber Thank you for your reply. :) 2 hours ago, bfarber said: You may or may not have logs in the system logs indicating the problem. Yes, there is nothing about this problem in ACP > Support > System Logs. For example, November 16th does not have any entries (I already had this problem with YouTube on that day), while other days are mostly rare errors, and they almost always related to the TapaTalk. I'll restart the server later in the night when there are fewer people, who knows...maybe it'll work. Do you have any other idea what to look for, try it?
November 18, 20195 yr From shell on your server, you can try requesting one of the URLs that is not embedding to see if an error is returned that might give you more insight, however ultimately the only other thing I can recommend is submitting a ticket so we can look into the issue.
December 10, 20195 yr Author @bfarber @Chris027 It turned out to be a problem with hosting: Quote We're aware of this issue affecting sites hosted in Atlanta and London, and are reaching out to Google for assistance in resolving this -- we'll be sure to share any additional information as we receive it. Thanks for your patience here, it's greatly appreciated. The problem is still ongoing.
