An unknown error occurred.

So you were making modifications to https://www.gta5-mods.com/vehicles/gta5korn-cars-pack ?
What did you change, if anything, that made this error occur?
-
I've poked a dev to take a look (will be tomorrow, now, as it's 11pm here). If you could provide any clarification on what you changed, that would help. Thank you.
-
@Dark0ne @Jitnaught Reyser told me that's because the description was too long. This is happening since there's a limit for descriptions.
i just wonder, why are there limits now..
-
No, that's not true. It's not to do with the length of your description. The only thing we've changed with the description is setting a minimum length of 255 characters.
-
@Dark0ne well, after i reduced the description, i was able to save it..
-
We think that the database was having a short issue when you clicked "save file" the first time. By the time you clicked "save file" again, the issue had stopped, hence why it then saved properly.
The easiest way to test this is to try and restore your file description to its original length -- if it errors again, it's more likely that's the issue. However, if it works, it's not the description length.
-
@Dark0ne i saved full description first, there was an error. Then i shorted it, and it was saved, but after i made it longer again, the error was there.
I just edited it again, seems to work now.
-
Is that what happened 16 hours ago, or what just happened now? Have you been able to repeat the error since 16 hours ago?
-
@Dark0ne the error was yesterday, today was already ok
-
@Dark0ne "An unknown error occurred." is there again. Tried to change something in the description. only can make a short one now. Is there a limit again?
-
@Dark0ne hey, so is this not more allowed to make longer descriptions, or is this a bug?
-
We haven't made any changes to the Long Description length so it shouldn't be an issue, @Gta5KoRn
Are you still getting this error?
-
@Dark0ne yes, its still there
-
@Gta5KoRn please can you post the description you're trying to enter into https://pastebin.com/ and let me know the link? I can then copy and paste it, and try it.
-
@Dark0ne here it is https://pastebin.com/3ZWjYbDx
-
@Gta5KoRn Ok so, after testing, the problem isn't the length of the description. The problem seems to have something to do with the special characters in your description. If I remove the down arrows at the bottom, the right arrows and the bullet points at the top, it works. If I leave them in, it gives that error.
It's likely a bad mix of special characters and HTML which is causing the error. I advise removing those items and just having a little play around with it.
-
@Dark0ne it worked fine earlier with all these characters...
-
Yes, I think it's to do with how you've formatted the HTML. Some tags are in the wrong place/order which, on top of those special characters, is causing an issue. But it's late and I don't want to refactor all your description HTML to try and find where the exact issue lies.
-
You have a few start tags that don't match up. Also a few broken/invalid tags.
Line 1:
<a></a>tag without an actual link. Remove these.Line 13: Use of
<ol>without<li>items.Line 21: Same
Line 33: Same
If you need lists with different bullet points, try not using the html tags for it at all.
5mods doesn't support in-line css, afaik.
-
Taken another look at this today and your code actually works absolutely fine on my test page. Still exploring what it could be.
-
@Dark0ne just tested with this "centenario" description. i removed "-------------------------------- " before the <b>Installation:</b> line and was able to save. But didnt work on my Chiron mod description. i get unknown error there too. https://pastebin.com/xevS2NYB
-
@Dark0ne any news on the fix? cant you simply make it, as it was few months ago? It always worked fine before. i want to update a mod, but dont want to rewrite the whole description tbh.
-
@Dark0ne there is a problem with the <a href=""></a> code. When i remove it, im able to save the description.
-
@Dark0ne Hi!
I have this problem too!If there is any link on my mod page editing form I can't save it
If there is just one link in the description I can't save it.
I had to remove the link from the optional link field (which is for the mod's forum topic link) too!
If there is no link in the description, but I put a link to a forum topic in the optional link field I can't save.This worked before like charm, but about 1 or 2 months ago this started happening.
File upload is problematic too.
I browse the file, clicks on the submit button, the page reloading and nothing happens, I have to submit the file 2nd time to be uploaded.
Some times looks like nothing happened after the 2nd submit just the edit form reloading again and I have to navigate to other page and back to my mod page and just after that appears the pending aproval message.
