My Likes Just Broke

BrodyStone21

EDIT: It's not just likes, opening posts and uploading files both trigger this. I'm not sure what happened, but when I try to like posts on my forum, whether it's the admin user or a regular member, I receive a "Oops! Something went wrong. Please reload the page and try again." I'm not sure what I would have changed. To my knowledge, the only thing I did was upload a bunch of photos, and whilst doing so, I received the same message.

I did recently create php.ini This is the ENTIRE file:

post_max_size=2048M
max_filesize=2048M

I tried clearing cache and upading the database already.

BrodyStone21 Swift_TransportException: Expected response code 250 but got code "530", with message "530 5.7.1 Authentication required

Your email is no longer working. Flarum is no longer able to send emails. To be precise, the mail server errors stating it needs authentication of some kind.

BrodyStone21

luceos and the email not working would cause the rest of the forums functionalities to work?

luceos

BrodyStone21 if you're using a queue it wouldn't.

BrodyStone21

luceos I don’t see anything under email, or in the settings in general regarding a queue, how can I set that up?

Could you explain why the email not working would cause issues with the site that have nothing to do with email? Like liking posts. I’m just not following.

BrodyStone21 Could you explain why the email not working would cause issues with the site that have nothing to do with email? Like liking posts. I’m just not following.

Whenever you take an action that triggers email notifications to others, these are dispatched while processing to save the action. As such, when there are failures with sending (your system fails to send emails) these errors are shown on to the user initiating the action, though their action likely succeeded (like liking or replying).

BrodyStone21 I don’t see anything under email, or in the settings in general regarding a queue, how can I set that up?

Looking at the other discussion I think you figured it out. But for those stumbling on this discussion later; you will need to install one of the queue extensions, with the database queue being the simplest: https://flarum.org/extension/blomstra/database-queue

BrodyStone21

luceos I set up the database queue and I’m still experiencing the same issue. Liking a post is triggering the “oops something went wrong” message. The error that’s triggering it is wrong this time.

Next Doctrine\DBAL\Driver\PDO\Exception: SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1091 Can't DROP FOREIGN KEY `badge_category_id`; check that it exists in /home/metaqymo/public_html/vendor/doctrine/dbal/lib/Doctrine/DBAL/Driver/PDO/Exception.php:18

How can I verify the queue tool is working properly? It says it’s running, and I can see 1 pending job and 0 failed jobs.

ernestdefoe

BrodyStone21 are you using the badges extension by chance? That could be part of your problem it hasn’t been updated in quite some time and it’s causing all kinds of issues for people. There’s actually a bounty setup to get someone to update it and make it compatible.

ernestdefoe

BrodyStone21 How can I verify the queue tool is working properly?

In your Admin area of Flarum it will say on the dashboard if it’s active or not.

BrodyStone21

ernestdefoe the user badges one? I had it installed, but I deleted it. How can I make sure it's been properly purged from the system?

ernestdefoe

BrodyStone21 run the composer remove command and it should in theory remove it completely from your site.

BrodyStone21

ernestdefoe Unfortunately, that is not doing the trick.
