Serendipity Forums

Hi,

I have version 1.4.1 and when I create a post, publish it and come back to edit it, I have as many posts as I made edits. So in the above case I'd have 2 duplicate posts.

I make use of that popit (the plugin that allows one to send blogs in as mail) and when I login to publish it, I end up with two duplicate posts. If I were to add a tag and save, I end up with another post.

No use in deleting the duplicate - all duplicates have the same id. All I do now is to send one mail, have no categories nor a tag cloud.

I was quite cheesed, cause I had just finished the template css mods and was ready to launch. It's still launched - couldnt not launch it after too much work went into it : blog.pilchards.co.za.

should I upgrade? do I need to make any manual mods to the code? please, I dont want to have to go back to wordpress or blogger.

Thanks!

Hi!

Which browser are you using? Serendipity uses javascript to update the entry-id after saving, so maybe your browser doesn'T interpret it or you have JS disabled?

No use in deleting the duplicate - all duplicates have the same id.

Really?! Which database type are you using?

i'm using Firefox, although I'm using Opera at the office and pgSQL.

Hi!

Have you checked your pgsql if the autoincrement of the entry column works properly, or if your pgsql daemon spews some errors?

PGSQL is quite evil in terms of special configuration, so you should thoroughly scan the error logfile for clues...

Hi Garvin,

I swopped over to mySQL and my problems were solved!

I'll look in the logs why PG didnt work.

Kind regards,
Malcolm.
