Bug Stomp

I got those /Library.... errors on an attempted upload with Firefox.

every apostrophe I\'ve entered since the server change shows up as \\\'- example:

Don\\\'t hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky.

Before, I seemed to be able to fix it, but the last couple times I tried, it wouldn\'t let me.

rainstorm, thanks for posting the example. I was able to figure out the problem there - the new server was adding an extra set of slashes to responses. I spent the morning getting that fixed, and so if anyone added new responses in the last day that showed up with slashes, you can now edit them and correct it.

The import/export problems appear to be related to my local DSL network provider, a situation which I hope will be remedied when I move the server to a dedicated hosting facility in the next couple weeks.

If it\\\\\\\'s a useful observation, I noticed on my last post in Seasons (half an hour ago,) that when I edited the post, it had introduced slashes before all \\\\\\\' and \\\\\\\"

And on editing this post, it is still doing it.

And on reediting it, there are now three slashes before each
\' and \"

If I reedited it, I expect there would be 6 slashes...

Aha! I just found it. It was a global PHP initialization setting that is new in this version of PHP. It was auto-escaping all apostophes, slashes, and some other characters. It should be working now (though I dont have time this morning for extensive testing).

I'll look into the execution time error shortly.

TY Prof.

Anyone else having issues with it not reading a yes in a seek? I've got the response set from -5 to 5 and emotion is a +1, but when yes is entered it goes to xnone. Thanks!

Oh, Dear! I hope the Professor can extend the time!

I sometimes get the

socket_connect() failed.
Reason: () Unknown error: 0
socket_connect() failed.
Reason: () Unknown error: 0
socket_connect() failed.
Reason: () Unknown error: 0

and then the chat goes ahead anyway!

Sounds like the RAM's maxing out and forcing the LinkGrammar interface to keep rebooting. Could that be anything to do with the record number of bots online this moring? well over 1600 reported online 12 hours ago, though we're down to 1071 again now.

That sounds much better than my theory of goblins and gremlins putting a pox on my indevors. I just had a message disapear, and I am getting missed key-phrases. but everything else is working pretty well

I think you've got it -

goblins and gremlins

glib demons snarling
grin malign boldness
bind smelling organs
on singled ramblings
garbling on mildness
blamed grinning loss
on mindless garbling
nimble dogs snarling
damning longer bliss
smiles born dangling
random singing bells
old gamblers sinning
signal bind mongrels
smell binding organs
ending rambling loss
gross nimble landing
ransoms blind niggle
snoring blinds gleam
blend smiling groans
lads bringing lemons
bond grills meanings



it has to be the little people when there are that many anagrams flapping around
