Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Yes, trouble posting...not always, just in my thread under "In Progress Pics" for my MiG-1. For the past 2 days I've been trying to load the latest update (both text & pics from Imgur) to that thread, and always goes to a white page saying "Internal Server Error". I've tried on two different devices using different servers (Google, Firefox), also tried restarting, and, always the same, for the past 2 days. Anyone else suffering this, or is it just me?

cruiz Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 From time to time, it happens to me, exact situation text and pics from IMGUR; last time, I made a post with text only and let me put the pics in the next; I hope it works for you too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You mean, you make the post text-only, then go back and edit it to add the photos? Brilliant! Lemme give it a try.... Thank you! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cruiz Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Put the pics in the next post; I didn't try to edit the post with texts only, but maybe it could work too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy Posted June 9, 2022 Author Share Posted June 9, 2022 Hmm...well, it didn't let me add the pics....so I tried the text-only and it took. Tried the next post with pics-only and it took, as well. Tried to edit the pics post but wouldn't take the text. It DID take 2 sentences, seems to be the limit so far. Does this just pass with time, or am I now stuck with this as a feature? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cruiz Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 In my case, it's a random thing; same thread, computer, browser, and photo hosting. It just happens from time to time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aigore Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 I've been trying to post updates since Friday...I try different things until eventually everything crashes 😕 Only time before I experienced this was when ARC was attacked. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aigore Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Nope, not today either... very annoying 😞 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 Have you guys tried opening the image in its own tab, then copying the URL and then paste the URL in the editing field directly? That's how I post the images in the "Naval weathering" thread in Jet Modelling ... HTH ... -Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites

One of these days it'll work again but the crashes are almost more annoying....perhaps I should try another Web reader Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cruiz Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Hi Aigore, I posted in your Su-27 build and bumped to a new page; maybe now you can make a new post with images. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ALF18 Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 I experienced the same thing updating my in-progress thread for the big T-33. Multiple failures with text and imgur embedded links. After a few tries, it wouldn't even load the ARC forum pages at all. I tried using Chrome and Edge, same result. After 2 hours of doing something else, I tried just a one-liner of text and it worked. I could then add images and text by copying them from the Word doc where I had pasted my long original post that kept failing. No, I didn't start with Word. I typed text into the field, added imgur links, more text, another link, etc. Only after it failed and Chrome offered my 'saved' edit for another try did I copy that whole post and paste it into Word in case I lost it all at some point. Going from Word back to the browser worked fine. I think that the problems are intermittent, on the server side, and have nothing to do with the type of input we are trying. In computers, sh*t either works or it doesn't. When you do the same thing once and it works, then it crashes the next time, it's the server to blame, not something you're doing. I'm starting to get very discouraged by these forums. ALF Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 Happens to me as well. Then the next day it works fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
