View last error log returns 'Invalid error log index' #23

Open ghost opened 14 years ago

ghost commented 14 years ago

When clicking on the button [View last error log from requisitioned server] in the account page, the following error is returned:

Invalid error log index

This happens at both syntensity.com and my own master server. It's likely because no error was recorded, but it seemed to always return this (even when there appeared to be an error with the instance, but it was with requisitioning not necessarily in the running of the server). A little more explanation of what this button does (for end users) will probably be helpful, perhaps a link to the relevant wiki entry?

A first check shows this works for me.

Got a set of actions that can reliably reproduce this?

Can you log into syntensity.com as another user? If so, log in as me and hit the button.

I can't without your password.

But anyhow that error is correct behavior if there is no error log to display (text could be nicer I guess...) So one would also need to crash a server (and wait for it to restart and upload the error log). Also, this must be a server that uploads crash logs (like the syntensity.com ones are, but if you run your own, by default they won't).

Right, sorry if the original ticket wasn't clear but this is what I assumed was happening.

The reason this looked like an error is because it is not served within the syntensity.com site template. I think to others it will look like an error has occurred on the site, but it's not a big deal. Feel free to close the ticket if you don't think it's worth keeping open.

Ah, ok.

Well, it should be clearer, I'll keep the issue open to remember to make the text nicer at some point.
