moosetracker 132 Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 I have tried to post something 3 times and get an ODBC - SQl error.. Seeing if it is the post or the system, by posting this. If this get through, I also have a gripe.. When I write something if my password or username is wrong, it says I can go back to re-do the password.. 10% of the time, I don't loose my message, 90% of the time, the message is wiped out.. I don't mind fixing the error, but if it was a long post, I hate loosing all I wrote! This error did not give me the link to return & fix, and the back page lost everything too.. Frustrating, but I can understand when the error is an uncontroled error.. Link to post Share on other sites
moosetracker 132 Posted March 6, 2011 Author Share Posted March 6, 2011 Ok I guess it's the post but it is saying the error is due to an equal sign (true equal sign).. and I don't have one in the post. I will try again.. Link to post Share on other sites
AlFansome 10 Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 This is a known issue that's been around a while with the forum software. If you don't have a Subject: for your post --or-- if your subject contains certain characters (such as a single quote - '), then you'll get errors when you try to create a new topic on the boards.

SeattlePioneer 144 Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Hello moosetracker, I get that kind of error when I do something like: 1) don't have my username correct --- "seattle pioneer" rather than "seattlepioneer" for example. 2) Fail to select a forun on which the post will appear. Usually a minor error that is easy to overlook. With a long post, you might want to copy it to a notepad file until it posts correctly ---- we don't want to lose any words of wisdom!
