Users unable to sign in

    Hi,

    For some reason, new users are unable to sign in this morning. They get this error:

    Error 403 Forbidden
    Participant 118 may not see page 39 [TyE305KDJW2]

    When I look at the app logs, this is what occurs:

    app_1 | DEBUG API request exception: ResultException [DwE4P7], site SiteBrief(1,ueggixa07m,Some(URL REMOVED ON PURPOSE BY JEFF),Active
    ), ip 10.2.0.5: /-/login-password-create-user kvs: null

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!

    Jeff

    1. A quick reply, I'll take a closer look tomorrow: It seems page 39 is not accessible to some people. If you go to this URL: https:// server address/-39 then you'll see which page is page 39. Then, look at the category it's in — is the category access restricted? (Should it be?)

      Anyway I think Talkyard should not show an error about this and prevent people from signing in.
      When I look at the source code, it looks as if Talkyard could just log a message about it without showing any error. ... I'll have a look tomorrow

          /-39 is a #support-chat Chat that is inside the Support category and it not access restricted.

          Thanks for looking into this.

            Note: As a test, I deleted the #support-chat topic I created and the problem went away, allowing sign-ups to resume without error. I then reenabled it and the error due to page 39 returned. I have disabled that support chat for now. ;)

            Thanks again!

            3. Thanks for the additional info. Seems I can reproduce this:

              1) I create a new site, and make it login-required, and 2) create a chat channel and 3) pin it globally. Then, 4) when a new person signs up, this error happens. It's a bug, I've fixed it now, the fix will be in the upcoming version.

                  2. Now finally releasing the fix, i.e. a new server version. Your self hosted server should auto upgrade itself this night to the new version, v0.2020.30.
