XDA DevDB FAQ / Feedback / Bug Reports

[linuxnubee]

Hi Svetius

Just a quick message to say that the bar at the top of xda forum style 2015 hides the thread location ie

General discussion > About xda-developers.com > XDA DevDB FAQ / Feedback / Bug Reports by svetius

makes it slightly awkward to go back when you have read 30 pages of threads.

I'm using an amazon hd8 ot sure if this is the same for other devices though.

Many thanks

So I got an answer from the server admin, he said his plan is to rewrite a new uploading system because the current one for devdb is really old and his preference is to avoid a temporary fix. No ETA.

It's been fixed, I uploaded files to my projects minutes ago.
Thanks !

Thanks for the info. I'm not aware of what has been done exactly but good news it's fixed for you! :highfive:

Hi all - I've got a bug on one of my DevDB threads. I recently uploaded a 32.34MB file to the downloads tab. It's been downloaded 9 times...and now it's showing a 404 error if anybody else tries to download it.
This is actually the 2nd time this has happened. I uploaded the same file yesterday and it hit 15 downloads before the 404 error.

Could somebody look into this please? The file's here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=31832

Thanks!

As much as I hate bumping my own posts, I'm still getting this problem. Can anybody help?

Can you try to reup this file and see if the issue is fixed? Thanks

I've just uploaded the file again and, so far, it seems to be working. This happened before though. I uploaded the file and was able to download it...for an hour or so. Then I got a 404 error.

Hopefully this latest upload has more luck.

And...it's happening again. Error 404 when people try to download, although the download counter increments.

I have another DevDB thread which I've recently uploaded to and that downloads without any trouble at all..

I have some issues accessing my thread ([TOOLS][ZIPS][SCRIPTS]Android Backup and Restore Tools[Multiple Devices/Platforms]) created yesterday with mobile devices. Using the web interface I can access it, but on the mobile device the logcat says:

I've just tried to clean data, re-install the xda app ... unfortunately without luck
Any ideas what might have happended?

A hint beside: I created the thread though a new devdb project entry and it ended up with two threads having the same name ... The second thread is already removed by the moderator, but still I cannot access the remaining one

It is now fixed. I had to use a workaround.

Your issue is related to this known bug (still pending): https://github.com/Wood-Man/XDA-Labs-Issues-and-Suggestions/issues/23

Great! It's working now. Thank you very much.

Welp, I just tried creating my first project and things didn't go smoothly. When I tried creating the project, I got a pretty long loading before receiving a 500 error. And of course, like a dumbass I tried again. Twice. And got 500 error each time.

As it happens the project is created, but it created three separate threads :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-guitar-toolbox-metronome-guitar-t4025487
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-guitar-toolbox-metronome-guitar-t4025491
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-guitar-toolbox-metronome-guitar-t4025493

Any way I can delete the two extras?

Already addressed

Project dB update fail

I think this is the correct thread, but its the first post of the year; yeah, sure, the year has just started...

I have a project dB, which i have just updated (ie the OP with a new version). Updating Project dB's has been flakey for a while, but I can work around it by simply re-opening the project in another window, and manually checking it has updated. Normally, I get a page such as this after pressing either of the two save options.
View attachment 4928389
NB: I have tried saving it twice with the second one being a change in formatting to ensure it triggered a save.

However, when I look at the OP, it shows it being last updated by some other random user (ie not me), with some way historical date (ie not now)

Certainly not random.

Are you implying that the update was some mod edit / "adjustment" / correction? if so, I would of expected some kind of notification of the reason for the edit. ie what he felt needed to be "corrected", that I had done wrong / broken some XDA rule.

Also, I have done multiple updates of that devdb since the date shown, and I do not remember it showing that info. ie not me.

I actually found I could see what changes were made by the edit. And the edit would appear to only be changes I had made when releasing a new version (ie version number, file download location, date etc etc), but is definitely not the last edit. Especially since I have just edited it yesterday.

And, the edit jumps (as well as a few other minor edits such as MD5 and download URL etc etc)
- Current Stable Version: 1.0.36
- Stable Release Date: 2019-03-31
+ Current Stable Version: 1.0.55
+ Stable Release Date: 2019-12-10

And ALL my updates would of been by single increments to the version number, so it does not make any sense that it jumps 19 versions in a single edit let alone the date jump. and lets not forget, I edited it yesterday (and these changes are visible in the OP) but the last edited still shows the wrong values for date and user.

I'm not familiar with DevDB and it's functionalities. Maybe @bitpushr @malybru or @MikeChannon have an explanation?

Well I'm an Admin but not expert on DevdB functionality either. DevdB is not as updated as it might be and is and is more in bitpushr's domain than mine. He's our chief systems person.
When bitpushr changes something he normally doesn't do so in order to act as a Moderator but more usually to correct some systems issue or something not showing correctly. Other times he's maybe just testing something, perhaps following a user saying something in the post/thread isn't working correctly.

Hi all!
Please, help.
I cann't upload logo to my project - https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=38527
I get an error every time after selecting and adding my logo: HTTP ERROR 500

Hello, and good morning. If you provide me with your logo (or probably better a link to it; also fine via PM) and let me know where to place it in your project I give it a try. Afterwards we could go into some trouble shooting unless our admins @MikeChannon @the_scotsman already know the problem.

Is it definitely not working? Quite often the system returns a 500 error but has actually completed the task if you refresh the page.
