Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
ekforum Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 Notifications are not sending since upgrading to PHP 8.x and the latest forum software. If I click on run manually they are updating incredibly slowly. Like 0.01% 0.02% etc at a time. Cron is set up correctly and working on the server apparently. Any idea what may be causing this notifications to not send, and any idea how to fix? Many thanks in advance.
Daniel F Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 Are you sure that the cron is set up correctly? We had many clients which were still linking to the old PHP binary instead of the new php8 binary.
ekforum Posted March 23, 2023 Author Posted March 23, 2023 Thanks @Daniel F! Server is on PHP 8.2 Cron I think was set on 8.0, this has been changed to 8.2 and I think/hope that it is working now. Still seems incredibly slow, but I guess will be able to see if it is working correctly once this massive queue has been processed and then see if it quickly processes new tasks or not.
Makoto Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 Are you seeing a bunch of notifications in queue in your AdminCP? Is it for something in particular that has thousands of notifications to send? Cron will take longer to push through these tasks versus using the default method to process them on page requests by regular viewers, assuming your site gets more than one page request a minute at least.

IPB does not officially support 8.2 yet. Only 8.0 and 8.1. Folks have reported that 8.2 seems to work, but it's not been fully through all of the paces yet.

Is it for something in particular that has thousands of notifications to send? There is a large queue for: Adding country flag to existing members without countries. All of the other notifications that are queued are all different topics, and just usually topic notifications. Wouldn't expect it to be taking this long. I will keep trying to run manually but: Every time I run manually it then logs me out after a very small amount of time, even though no change of IP address. And when I logon from the same computer, same IP address:
Daniel F Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 Sounds like an issue with the country flag 3rd party app.

Do yo have any errors when trying to run it manually? Are you using the latest version (released today)?

Yes, updated to the latest version of that today which was released 3 hours ago. Even after disabling your application the usual core notifications of invision are not loading at an expected speed. If I try to run manually it works for a short time (a min or two, time varies) and then logs me out with the error in screenshot above. No other errors that relate to it that I can see in error/system logs. Even if I do nothing it seems to be randomly logging me out now. A huge list of issues since upgrading the PHP Adriano Faria 1
Makoto Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 Are you using a proxy service such as CloudFlare, and if so have you configured IPS to trust the IP address sent over by the proxy?

Thank you for the suggestion. Not using CloudFlare. I can't see that setting within my community, is it related to only if there is CloudFlare enabled? Not on a VPN connection right now, so should be OK.
Randy Calvert Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 Just my own personal observation... I've noticed at home my ISP (Verizon Fios) is using IPV6 now and preferring it over IPV4. I've noticed my IPV6 address has changed MUCH more frequently.... several times in a day at times. ekforum 1

Thank you @Randy Calvert, I had assumed the warning was some sort of error. I have now switched a VPN on, so stable IP address, and touch wood it seems to be processing the queue manually and hasn't logged me off.
