[Solved]Forum is broken: Clicking thru to thread returns to Index, continously...

blackbird71 last edited byI've been seeing the same thing for the past two days. Clearing cookies seems to fix it for a time, then it comes back after usually several hours. When it occurs, once in a while, the desired forum appears, but more often it jumps to the basic Opera forum index. On a few occasions, it goes to a white page that seems to be unable to continue loading. I've even had it occur when attempting to log in.

Seems like, if you log in on another browser (which would have to include a browser on a different computer or device) then your previous browser will do this. If I stick to Opera Developer on this laptop then I'm fine, if I switch to Vivaldi it loops until I clear cookies there and log in - and once I do, then Opera will now loop.

Well I haven't tried with any browser except Opera 12.18, and it was OK yesterday as I said, but today it had gone back to continuously looping again.
Just cleared the cookies again, and it's working OK again now, but how long for remains to be seen!

Loop issues here: https://youtu.be/8lxmYnDCr_k
After cleaning cookies and cache it worked BUT only for a while amd then I started looping again.
So would be fine they fix it finally. It's really irritating issue, permanently login in private mode... -

But, is there a better place to report it?

This would be the place for it.
It's your your reference about The Forum as right place or about The Blog?
Is at least 3 days old bug "in all forums, I suppose".Do Opera workers check the Forum?
So far I only saw it happening once and was able to fix it by logging out and then logging in again.
The problem remains even after that

This - the forum - is the place for it. I presume the forum software was updated recently but something went wrong - they either need to revert the change or (if they understand the software well enough, as it isn't "in house" software) try to fix it. Until one of the webmasters replies we don't know.

Still exactly the same here.
Works after cookies cleared until the following day, when it just keeps looping again.
If I stop the loop and try to log in I just get -
"You tried to access the address http://forums.opera.com:8081/, which is currently unavailable."
The only way back in is to clear the cookies again, after which it works for a while but then always fails again.

Still faulty again today and had to go through the whole process again.
Come on guys, this is getting beyond a joke now!

Around noon today (US EST time, 28 Jan 2017), I began getting some clusters of '502 gateway errors' while trying to use Vivaldi to access Opera's forums; later, it all seems to have cleared up (fingers crossed!). But it's getting to be kind of like waiting for the next shoe to drop --

... and 9 hours later, now we're back to the perpetual forum index regardless of what forum I attempt to access. Even attempts at signing in does it.
After deleting all Opera's site cookies, everything's back fine again.

Yes, problems with 8081 port. If I have a clue is that 8081 is open on Opera Mini servers and 8080 on Demo ones.

I am getting this in Linux. Have had to load up Firefox browser. We shouldn't have to clear cookies. People might be using cookies for other websites. Will try clearing the ones for Opera website to see if that helps.

Feels that https://my-beta.opera.com reset auth is cut off, it shouldn't. That URL must force logout.

So, thus far, it happens on Windows and Linux systems; it happens with Olde Opera, New Opera, and Vivaldi. That's a fair cross-section which indicates there's something peculiar going on with the Opera website(s) and at least its cookies.

It happens on Android and Mac (I told users who were reporting it in those forums to come here) and on Firefox if you were previously logged in. Clearing cookies for "opera.com" seems to fix it (no, you don't have to clear all cookies - click on the "All cookies and site data" button to clear cookies for a specific site, or go to opera://settings/cookies )
