UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.classic [Archived] UBB.classic Bugs Could not create topic because of 0-size file (6.3.0.1) [NOTABUG]

Hi!

In one of my forums it was not possible to create a new topic. After clicking the button only a blank white page was the result.

Rebuilding the forum stats brought no success.

So I had a look with my ftp-program into the forum folder and found out, that there was a recent thread-file with a size of 0 byte.

I don't know, how it was possible to create that empty file (server or software error?), but after deleting it, everything worked fine again.

Whats bad about it is, that one false file leads to a complete non-working forum. should'nt there be a routine that checks those files and deletes them automatically so that the whole forum isn't blocked?

greetings
gero

The check routines should indeed be catching this. Please update your board to 6.3.1.1. If the problem still occurs, please open a support ticket so that I may examine your board in detail and figure out exactly what's going wrong.
