Session timed out error. Inf getting it too

I deleted my cookies and then relogged, but set my session from "Forever" to "1 hour."

Perhaps there's something wrong with the forever setting.

Seems to work.

I got the error as well, but clearing cookies and relogging worked for me, even on the forever setting.

Over the past 1-2 weeks I've had to clear my cache and cookies about 20-30 times and still get the session time out error while the clearing of cache and cookies has only allowed me to post a few times. Sometimes I can post, other times I can't and I can only usually post once before it decides to session time out on me again...which means I have to repeat the same annoying process.

Surely I'm not the only person still effected by this? I'm using google chrome, I login for 60 minutes or less, I have used the actual login page the last few times and still get the problem. This is becoming very frustrating and I see no updates on the situation anywhere.

It's weird that I never have this problem, and I'm using chrome.

The reason why you haven't seen any other people complaining about it is because I keep getting emails and PMs from them. It is also happening less frequently to me so it is getting harder to tell if my changes are making things better.

I've turned off the member info block for the home page (a likely culprit) and I am continuing to search for other solutions to this problem. If this is the issue, you may receive one more session timeout before it works without any problems again.

The temp fix is to close out of all tabs related to GTM and clear all your cookies. Your browser may not clear the cookies if they are being used. I have tried this on more than 10 different devices using a multitude of browsers with a 100% success rate.

Also, it should be noted that it is a problem with the forum's cookie being read improperly. That means that the chatbox will not work for people experiencing this issue but the wiki will. I'll be updating the forum software after I have a complete handle of what has been modified. An ill timed update may lead to even bigger issues.

I ask that you be patient as this issue gets resolved ASAP.

Just for the record I'm having no problems now

Trovaner · « **Reply #15 on:** March 05, 2013, 11:48:18 PM »

According to posts on the chatbox, some people are still experiencing this issue.

ianh05 · « **Reply #16 on:** March 05, 2013, 11:57:54 PM »

It's been working fine for me since the fix, but I have noticed some people not posting like INF.

Kossokei · « **Reply #17 on:** March 06, 2013, 01:11:46 PM »

It's been working fine for me ever since I accidently tried to post when my session really did end and that sort of reset the whole thing, I guess.

kill343gs · « **Reply #18 on:** March 06, 2013, 04:02:35 PM »

JK it doesn't work on my phone. No idea if my phone was having problems before.
