[solved] Comments are not received in the server

[Woomla]

Hi,

I'm developing a website on my localhost. I've downloaded JComments 2.1.0.0  [07/08/2009] and display it on several articles. When I type in a comment and press Send, I only see the spinner for a short while, and then this disappears. No comment is added to the article.

In the server I see no log of the Ajax request that is made.

Unfortunately, now I have to debug this componen to get it ready.

Anyone any ideas where to start?

Thanks in advance,

Wo.

Activated System cache plugin can be reason for such problems, sometimes.
Do you use some cache extension?

No, not to my knowledge. I've Joomla! 1.15 and created a simple template. Some session/categories are set to have JComments. But no comment is ever added to the database on the server. I even don't know if the comment is received. I suppose I should debug JComments, but don't know how to do that.

Here's something I've found.

My webserver is running on port 8080. The url with the new comment doesn't appear to have the port number in it.

It is: http://localhost/index.php?option=com_jcomments&tmpl=component

but I guess it should be

http://localhost:8080/index.php?option=com_jcomments&tmpl=component

Well, it looks like I've found something.

In JComments.init from jcomments-v2.1.js there's a check if the host name is still the same in the url as in location.hostname. This check doesn't count for port numbers in the hostname.

I've written a simple check to filter out the port.


original line 275 in jcomments-v2.1.js

Code:

var h=location.hostname,d,i1,i2;i1=r.indexOf('://');if(i1!=-1){i2=r.indexOf('/',i1+3);if(i2!=-1){d=r.substring(i1+3,i2);if(d!=h){r=r.replace(d,h);}}}this.requestURI=r;var th=this;jtajax.startLoading=function(){th.busy.show();};jtajax.finishLoading=function(){th.busy.hide();};},

my test

Code:

i2 = d.indexOf(':');if (i2 !== -1){d = d.substring(0, i2);}

I've inserted it just before replacing the hostname with the original one. This gives me the new line.

new line

Code:

var h=location.hostname,d,i1,i2;i1=r.indexOf('://');if(i1!=-1){i2=r.indexOf('/',i1+3);if(i2!=-1){d=r.substring(i1+3,i2);if(d!=h){i2 = d.indexOf(':');if (i2 !== -1){d = d.substring(0, i2);}r=r.replace(d,h);}}}this.requestURI=r;var th=this;jtajax.startLoading=function(){th.busy.show();};jtajax.finishLoading=function(){th.busy.hide();};},

So at least my comments now are send to the server

My issue was that i have jrecache component in which i was caching post commands also. Once i turned off caching post command, this got fixed.
