Can't join the active group 'try': 'TypeError: b is null' #194

Open Ashe opened 5 years ago

Ashe commented 5 years ago

I want to get in touch and help out but when I log in and click on the try active group, nothing happens. I actually really want this to succeed as I am sick of discord, nice to see something new on the rise. Really impressed by the trailer too, and I really hope I can learn while contributing. I hope you'll have me!

Also: I'm sorry that this is posted here even though it's not an actual issue with the programming side of things, but its hard to communicate with you all when you're sealed away on your own platform that I seemingly cannot join :(

Hi Ashe, no worries, thanks for reporting an issue!

Some questions:

Ashe commented 5 years ago

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly! I am using Arch Linux and Firefox Quantum 68.0 (64-bit).

Here's a temporary webm I recorded of the error.

I also tried on Google chrome and has the same issue sadly.

jamesnvc commented 5 years ago

Oh, very strange...I'm having trouble reproducing that right now, but I'll look into that.

Can you go directly to https://braid.chat/try?

Ashe commented 5 years ago

Unfortunately not. Unless this is how it's supposed to look:

I did try that but I didn't know if that was the url address to the group.

jamesnvc commented 5 years ago

Yup, that URL looks right...I saw you were able to create a group, though?

jamesnvc commented 5 years ago

Can you try opening a new incognito window and going to braid.chat/try? I'm wondering if the app state has gotten in to some sort of strange state for you...

Ashe commented 5 years ago

Yeah, you can try braid.chat/ashe? But when I access that link I get the blank screen again, just like in the screenshot above. I'll be in my group if you wanted to try and jump in? It should be public and at least we'd see if the basics work.

Ashe commented 5 years ago

Here's an invite link I generated for you? Maybe it'll help you get in if the standard url doesn't work.

Ashe commented 5 years ago

You were right! I saw the group perfectly fine in incognito mode. So I wonder what's going on... I'll try logging out of my account and trying your group again

jamesnvc commented 5 years ago

Yeah, when I try to go to your "Ashe's group" then I get that error. I've seen things about that before, there's probably some weird thing with how a message was created in there. I'll poke around in the db & see if I can figure it out.

Okay, I managed to join try, and I tagged jamesnvc into my conversation. Does it work?
