Hello,

I was wondering if anyone is using MySQL Query Cache with Invision. Will this cause issues? I am trying to reduce my website TTFB, especially on topics. (I have a lot of rep points)

Thanks.

I have the same problem, the achievements logs table is so big. I want to lower the "Clear activity log" setting from 1 year to 6 months, but I'm afraid it will delete important information, such as the date a badge was earned or cause some other issues...

Hi,

I See you found the "confusion" with the constant.

The REDIS_ENABLED constant controls the "Use Redis to reduce MySQL overhead" setting and not if Redis is enabled or disabled globally.

 

 

Where is Redis running? Is it running on the same server as your web and mysql Server? What are the specs?
Is Redis configured properly?

Running on the same server port 6379.

I think my Redis is working properly but the REDIS_ENABLED constant should be removed from constants.php when we are using file system for cache.

It should indeed be true when its enabled. Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention! I can confirm this should be further reviewed and I have logged an internal bug report for our development team to investigate and address as necessary, in a future maintenance release.

 

This is not a bug, the constant 'REDIS_ENABLED' is for the setting "Use Redis to reduce MySQL overhead" I don't enable this setting so it's set to false.

I still don't understand why my site is much slower that usual.

Hello,

When I disable Redis and download constants.php the file contain.

\define( 'REDIS_ENABLED', true );
\define( 'STORE_METHOD', 'FileSystem' );

When I enable Redis the file contain.

\define( 'REDIS_ENABLED', false );
\define( 'STORE_METHOD', 'Redis' );

Why is 'REDIS_ENABLED" set to false?

I think my cache is not working properly, my site was fast (250ms response time) but after I edited a widget the site started to be slower. (500ms, no load on the server) I cleared the cache but no improvement.

Thanks.

You can fix this by editing the applications/tcw/data/extensions.json file in the applications directory.

Replace the files content with:

{
    "core": {
        "Queue": {
            "legacyTopicFields": "IPS\\tcw\\extensions\\core\\Queue\\legacyTopicFields"
        }
    }
}

 

Thank you, it worked.

I’m afraid, that would be up to the author to provide you the files should they wish to. We would not be able to provide you that. 

If I remove the plugin files manually and then remove the table from the database you think it will work?

I see that the plugin create 3 tables and add settings in the " core_sys_conf_settings" table too.

The best way would be for the author to correct the error with the uninstall in their application there. If you have reached out to him and the third party application is causing havoc for you, we can take a look at uninstalling it for you but this should be treated as a last case scenario as we can't be doing this in every case, unfortunately.

I sent a new message to the author.

Is it possible to send me the files for the 1.2.2 version? Back in March, he told me that I'm supposed to have a Uninstall folder in applications/tcw/extensions/core/. I don't have this folder on my server.

Maybe I can fix this problem with an older version?

Not through the AdminCP but this plugin allow you to add members without invitations.

Is there a way to force a plugin uninstall? I get an error when trying to uninstall this plugin.

The plugin author replied few month ago but we never found a solution. It appear that he is no longer active.

The error:

Error: Class "IPS\tcw\extensions\core\Uninstall\tcw" not found (0)

#1 /public/applications/core/modules/admin/applications/applications.php(1389): IPS\_Application->delete()

Thank you.

Could you clarify where you see the URL with the csrfKEy and where not?

The csrf key is in the URL when I click on the renew buttons on the club page. 

https://mysite.com/clients/purchases/23-club-name/?do=renew&cycles=1&csrfKey=f1d606ac824ada05f241938740be47 (Causing the error)

No csrf key when I click on "There is a pending renewal invoice for this product. Pay Now" on the "Manage your purchase" page. 

https://mysite.com/checkout/15241/(It works)

I disabled all plugins and apps, still doesn't work.

I depends on the URL, when the URL contain a csrfKey I get the error but when I use "There is a pending renewal invoice for this product. Pay Now" (Url has no csrfKey) It works and you can renew the membership.

The problem occurs on expired club membership, canceling or deleting the membership is the only fix.

No one at Invision know what 2X212/4 mean?

+1

R2 doesn't works on 4.7.10, I can configure and upload in the bucket but the background task is unable to move files in the bucket. BAD_XML in logs.

I would need more information on this. Are you referring to something on your own site? If so, I would need an example member and club they pay for.

My own website, the error occurs when some members attempt to renew an expired club membership.  Any expired clubs. No pending invoice.

Hi, what is causing this error? (Club memberships.)

Error code: 2X212/4

Would be nice to display this information on profile and feeds.

Site is online, server location can't be changed - CF picks location nearest to you, caching is enabled (Redis), PHP is 8.1 with latest IPS version and I use dedicated server. 

Nothing odd about my suggestions, Cloudflare doesn't cache dynamic content by default, your server location should be as close to the target audience as possible.

I don't believe there is a way to do that in the base software.  There is a 3rd party plugin that can help achieve this however I believe...

 

Thanks but this plugin doesn't work. (Something went wrong error.)

I think it only works for pages, I need to exclude a plugin URL so the plugin can work correctly.

Hello,

My website is currently offline (General Configuration, Site Online)

I want to exclude an URL from the maintenance page so the URL is accessible publicly by guest even if the site is offline.

Thanks.

Look like it has been fixed. 

The IP is not an issue, it is because of my server provider NAT configuration.

Hello,

My get support page is reporting "Server time may be inaccurate"

My server time (UTC) is accurate. NTP is enabled.

Another issue is that the server IP on this page is not accurate, displaying a private IP instead of my server public IP.

I think the IP issue is related to the time issue.

Thanks.

Few suggestions.

1. Make your forum online. 

2. Change your server location.

3. Enable template caching.

4. Make sure you are using the latest PHP version supported by IPS and that OP cache is enabled.

5. Don't use shared hosting. Get a VPS instead. 

Maybe with Cloudflare's redirect rules?

If referer contains /login/ redirect to /yourchatroom

You can edit your NGINX or Apache config to logs 404 errors.
