When I get that one it usually means I tried to upload the wrong file as my turn...

Re: PBW status
 

That happened to me; I think I was trying to upload the wrong file, but I don't really remember. There's a thread on it somewhere.

Hmm, well I double and triple checked that it was the right turn. It was for sure. But I finally gave up on trying to upload....and the turn was uploaded!! I have been having trouble with the internet in general, and PBW in particular, so I had to try a few times to get most turns uploaded, and can't even download the larger turnfiles.

What I think might have happened is this: The turn got uploaded, but the screen didn't change because the internet crapped out on me before it could. Then, thinking that it hadn't uploaded, I tried again to upload it, and since it was already uploaded the aforementioned window popped up.

You are correct. Sometimes the backend stuff happens faster then the web pages refresh. So basically when the .jsp page you are looking at gets behind like that it can cause wierd things to happen, like what you experienced. You would expect that some kind of error code would have been coded that would say, "You've already uploaded your turn", but it wasn't because normally if you had uploaded your turn already you wouldn't even have the option to upload again.

In IE, this sort of event would nomrally cause a page to open in the browser window with information on the error. However, it uses weird code that violates the standards, so other browsers, such as Firefox, have no idea what to do with it.

Well its good to know for sure what happened, and thanks for the explanations.

Re: PBW status
 

Just had an interesting error.

I went to upload my file, yes it was the correct file, and it gave me an option to download????? Any ways I logged off and when I logged back on it showed that I had uploaded my turn file. Very odd.

This applies to you to Atrocities. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif PBW sent your browser a page in a weird way, and your browser had no idea what to do with it.

I checked PBW 10-15 minutes ago and it worked. Now it has an internal server error. Typical if you ask me, Christmas day (Well mine finished half an hour ago) and PBW goes down http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif.
