Database error
From Front Tools wiki
Jump to: navigation, search
A database query syntax error has occurred. This may indicate a bug in the software. The last attempted database query was:

    (SQL query hidden)

from within function "". MySQL returned error "1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ') ORDER by rc_id DESC LIMIT 5' at line 9 (localhost)".
<DynamicArticleList>
title=New Articles
type=new
categoryRoot=Java
</DynamicArticleList>

And it works fine if i skip categoryRoot

Any Idea ? --Ctof 18:15, 24 July 2006 (UTC) Answered on your talk page. Cheers. --Jimmy 23:17, 24 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Slow Updating

[edit]

I installed it two days ago, but it hasn't updated since then -- the list of recent articles is now 3 days old. Do I have to do something to trigger it to refresh? Thanks for any help.--Matt 14:21, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Two options: either add a link to the page that has &action=purge on it, or just type that on the end. DAL doesn't seem to turn off caching on the pages it's on. Jimmy 18:20, 10 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Patch to skip error when category is not existing

[edit]

Hello, i have Modifiy your version to have no error when category has not been saved at least one time. I also skip the where clause concerning the namespace (search by default on all namespace)
