Title: Session Timeout
Post by: Langer on April 07, 2007, 10:17:54 PM

Lately when sending PM's it says that the session timed out before it could send the message, only thing is it comes back with that message right away, there is no long delay to timeout? If I click send again it goes through. Is this something with my connection or something else?

Thanks

I'm not sure. I haven't seen that one before or heard about it. Do you stay logged in all the time - not meaning you are always connected, but you do not have to login to the forum each time you visit?

If so, try logging out. Wait for the forum to return saying welcome guest. Close your browser.

Re-open the browser and login to the forum. It may just be something wrong with your session id/cookie for the site.

One other possibility is that there is a built-in spam protection that limits you from sending a new PM faster than a certain amount of time since the last PM. I can't remember the setting time off the top of my head, but it isn't real long. Just long enough to make it difficult for someone to copy-paste-send the same PM over and over to multiple people.

I'll give that a try.
Thanks
