Getting logged out every day?

Postby golyplot » Sat Jan 08, 2022 2:54 am

I used to never get logged out at all, but now it's happening every day! And each time, when I try to log back in, it says it is incorrect the first time and gives me a CAPTCHA question, and it only lets me log in the second time. Also, I check "remember me" every time, but it doesn't seem to help any more.


Has anyone else had this issue?

The site has been very slow and frequently has errors recently, so I wonder if that is related as well.

It's very frequent right now. I'm using Safari and Chrome.

And yet when I logged in about 15 minutes ago, there were no glitches. And I can also heart people without a problem.
But until today, there were problems for a few days.
Could this be regional?
I live in Texas. Maybe you've heard of it? :)

I have just experienced it, but after I had been away from the screen for a couple of hours - so no, it is not limited to Texas, but might have something to do with the current access problems. And if you have been kicked out you have to get through the mill with two phases. 'Remember me' still works for me- otherwise I would have been kicked out while I wrote this short message.

It hadn't happened in a while, but I just got logged out again today.

I am also puzzled about why logging in never works on the first try. Every time I try to log in, it says it failed on the first attempt and makes me answer a captcha.

According to the PhpBB support forum, it is a bug in the version we are using when you enable captcha.

Time to migrate to Discourse or Xenforo.

Or NodeBB... free.

Or just upgrade the version we're on. (We're like 3 versions behind the latest, because of some modifications we made)

This is probably also part of the reason for the 5xx errors - the user cookie processing is failing and then ...

What needs to happen for the upgrade?
Can I help? Bring someone in to do it?
