So, I'm not sure where the "chasing the elusive 00000000.cgi" thread from the old forum can be found, but I have some new developments on it.
Now, twice, either my server or GM has done something funky and when I go to post an entry, it gives me the 00000000.cgi message. When I go to see what is wrong in my archives and cgi directories, the entry cgi file that would be the entry I am trying to post is a 0kb file, the entrylist is blanked, and the counter is blanked. Granted, I am using 1.21b still, but I think it might have to do more with the sheer number of entries on my site.
Example. Right now when I went to post entry #3705, it gave me the error. I went to my archives directory and a 00003705.cgi was actually there, but it was empty. My entrylist was blanked and my counter was blanked. It also did this when I tried to post #3698, so updating the list wasn't hard as I keep backups at all times but... Maybe someone has an idea as to why it is doing this? There weren't any problems from 3698-3704 so obviously I created valid files. I also don't know if those files are blanked before or after I am trying to post the entry (I assume it is happening as I try to post), as I am unaware of the problem until I get the 00000000.cgi message. Obviously a file named 00000000.cgi does not exist at any point.
Well thanks for anything you can suggest so it stops doing this (besides telling me to upgrade) or an ideas you have as to why it is blanking files on me.
