I solved this by installing SSL as that allowed the ws connection to work properly through the ISP in question.

Hi,

I have a few users (including myself) that are experiencing issues with the image upload.

The images start to upload then stop like...

Images do however successfully arrive on imgur.

This started about 2 months ago.

NodeBB version 1.4.2

Any one else experiencing this issue?

Any suggestions of what I can try?

Thanks

Ted

Users are still receiving the invalid buffer error as well, it appears to be (but I am not sure) posts with a lot of images. Is that likely related?

Does the buffer array limit/length include the image content? I wouldn't think so.

Note: Our images are currently sent to imgur.

Thanks

Ted

@baris it can be any at random times, no consistency at all, a refresh of the page solves the issue

Thanks again for the reply

Still get the INVALID DATA when upvoting/downvoting all the time though

@PitaJ I don't think it is a memory issue, I have about 10 concurrent users as a maximum at the minute. I have just installed the new graph metrics provided by digital ocean memory is around 30%, will keep an eye on that.

I have also increased the post length in the ACP.

Will report back if it continues

Thanks

Ted

@baris it happens randomly, sometimes not at all with huge posts. I use redis as the db.

However I can write a post, press submit, get this error. Copy the contents, refresh the page, paste the contents and then it posts fine.

Thanks for your reply

@Pilvinen said in How to improve Nodebb - few suggestions from the top of my head:

Thread tools: Edit poster/adopt post
The admin should be able to switch the owner of the post. (right now I have orphan posts left over from import and the only way to change their owner is to use the redis-cli). Probably not a very popular/useful feature in general, but should be simple enough to implement because why not?

Is this possible yet?

Thanks

Ted

Hi,

I myself have received this error when posting large posts and now some of my users are reporting it. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced it?

Also, people get this one all the time when up or down voting posts...

Refreshing the page usually resolves these issues but that is not ideal as for the first one you lose your post and most of my members don't have the ability to copy, refresh, paste the contents and retry.

Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Ted,
