I can't get in or reset my cookie - have I been a very bad girl?

Tig

Almost certainly, m'dear, that's why we love you! But it doesn't have anything to do with your cookie I think... ;)

Hurrah for Mudcat! Hurrah for Max! Several times over, & louder & louder...

very interesting...clearing cache and using taj.mudcat.org/threads.cfm do nothing for me...I guess I'll have to wait for 'propagation' of DNS stuff...only the 207 address gets me in

Things seem to be running smoothly now so hopefully others will be able to get cookies sorted and meet up in the chatroom again. Last night I could only get in through Geoff's browser but all are working now and I've sorted the e mail Tig (well Geoff did) and it did just seem to be the size of the file that caused it - so you see size does matter;¬))

I cannot believe what an empty feeling I experienced when I clicked onto the 'cat and it was gone! And I got the "funding" message. And even though it said it's be back on the 10th, I kept checking each day to feed my denial and here its back! And money wasn't the issue (any more than usual).

Although a rare poster anymore, it certainly made me appreciate the resource and ability to pop in, check out the music threads, learn stuff and pop back out.

It made me sad to think this was a financial outage and I did nothing to help.

I know in the past, we've had financial issues and the community has come through. But is occurs to me, perhaps a more constant reminder of the need for donations to keep this thing running. How would it be if there was a simple note at the top where we could be reminded each day of the not-for-profit nature of this forum and the need to feed it? I know that wouls be helpful to me.

Max, I hope your move was blessedly uneventful.

Sorry Mrs D :-( I forgot your e-mail is touchy if you try to send it something big. I'm VERY fustrated about Mudcat at the moment though. I've got too used to the new look with the chatroom!

Hope it will let me back soon.

Huzzah! Yay! Whoopee! It's back, it's back!

By the way, there is a post on the alt.fairs.renaissance forum suggesting that ren/folkies who use Mudcat send money. I hope it works.

Subject: RE: The Mudcat is Back
From: Jeri
Date: 05 Jun 03 - 05:58 PM

Max said, in FolkInfo, that the address would take a while to propagate through the system. Www.mudcat.org was at another address during the move - where the "we're down - send money" message still is. Eventually the correct address will work its way through the internet to you - you just have to wait. Until then, looks like the Taj address is the best way to go if you want a cookie.

Cookies don't work with numbers. Not sure why, but I think it's in the way the cookies are written and what Mudcat looks for when it accesses them.

I can get in using taj but then have to change ww to taj every time I follow a link. This works for just about everything except the door of the chatroom. I can get to the login page and see there are 3 people in there but I can't get through them doors!!!!!

Golly Jeepers Creepers! Hello, Mudcat, well, hello, mudcat; it's so nice to see you back where you belong! First the Chiff & Fipple was knocked off cyberspace by angry anti tin whistle terrorists, & I thought "I still have the'cat!'--then the 'cat was no where to be seen--all in the same few weeks. I did suffer some side effects from the loss of both, but am on the mend, due especially to the speedy arrival of ye olde mudcat cafe back where it belongs. (apologies to Hello, Dolly fans who might take offense at the paraphrasementocityness!)

Hi, Nutty -
It looks like the usual solutions don't work this time. I asked Pene Azul to look in on this thread. He's always able to come up with a solution.

Joe .... I am having the same problems as Clinton .... It won't let me reset my cookie but then I seem to remember never having had a cookie when I joined Mudcat this way.
I certainly was never able to access mudchat when I came in through the numbers so the problem may be solved when we can come in through the front door again.

Also FYI

After logging in, and landing at the page

" You cookie has been reset. You are now acting as blah blah blah with email address suchandsuch...."

The url for the link that reads
"Click here to view or edit your personal data "

Has the IP# in the url line, where as all the other URLs on the page (Lyrics & Knkowledge, "You ahve 4 Messages" and such) all point to www.mudcat.org... and clicking them either brings up the error message

Hi, Clinton - clear your browser cache and close all browser windows except one, then go to Mudcat and log in again.
That usually does the trick.

WB Max! Hope the move went as well as could be expected....

Little help here logging in maybe? Or do I just have to wait for things to "catch up"?

I come to the URL... go through the log-in process... it loggs me in, but when I come back to the threads, I'm still logged out...

Any 4-1-1 folks?
