Damn. I've found a bug in MySQL 4.1.x

This query will not always return a reliable resulset:

Code:

SELECT * FROM bb_notifications n LEFT JOIN bb_topics t ON (n.object_id=t.topic_ID) WHERE t.server='1'  AND listener_id='1' ORDER BY notifier_ID DESC;

However, if you replace 't.server' by 'n.server', it will work. Apparently it gets confused by the test running on the joined table.
I have no idea where this comes from. Corrupt table maybe?

So this bug dose what to effect nbbs? Is it realy importet?

At a guess, it effects "bb_notifications"
Thats the thing that sends out Topic Notifications...

It might be corrupt...
Try changing it and see what happens...

---

It gets currpt again? lol

( Trinest.Com )

Not if you fix the corrupt table...
I think it might be corrupt anyway...

---

It seems to be a MySQL bug, actually.

Oh, well. Easy to work around so no worries.

---

Lol, why not, if it still works, leave it...
Thats probably the best thing to do...

---

I despise bugs, today my forum came across a bug and it messed it up pretty bad. Thank god Chris knew how to fix it.

---

Well it is a beta software...but meh

Well there isn't near as many glitches as there was when I first got my forum transfered. But this software is looking excellent and I can't wait until there is a 'finished product'.

---

heh...well you will be waiting for awhile, heck the softwere isnt even in RC stages yet.

Chris needs to do more work, I think basicly get all the features he wants in the first build in, as well as fixing things which dont work, then releasing it, heck I dont think we will see a RC until March next year

My friend.. :P He has two sites by them with 4gb of diskspace, and 75 gb of bandwidth.
And its completly useless, as there is so many problem's, and nothing work's right.
When he or I contact them to ask them to fix their problem's.
They want to charge $20 on his bill to fix it. >_<
