Inbox API Errors (dmv.social)
submitted 4 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I’m not sure what happened but I’m getting API errors when trying to access Inbox messages that open to a post.

Is this app continuing to be developed? The last post in this community is from 5 months ago and the GitHub issues are old as well. I really like this app but it’s been crashing and obviously the API errors cropped up.

Is this something where I need to log out\in ?

Thanks for all the efforts thus far.

Yes, Arctic is still under active development, I usually release at least one update a week, the latest being yesterday. I’m not sure why you’re not seeing new posts in the community either, I made a post earlier today, and the AppStore release was a couple of weeks ago.

As for this error, usually this means that the post you are trying to access has been deleted, or removed by a moderator, in some cases it can mean that the parent comment has been deleted. I don’t believe this is actually a bug with Arctic, but rather it just encountered a missing post. I do need to update the error message though, so that this will be explained to the end user. In order to be certain, you can check the logs in Settings -> About -> Arctic Logs.

As for crashing, I’d need more information about that. I am aware of a couple of crashes that I have received TestFlight reports of, most of which have been resolved. Are you by chance on an older version? The latest version as of writing this is v0.4.0.3 released yesterday morning. Or if you are on the AppStore version 1.0, I am preparing to release a new update on the AppStore this weekend which would resolve quite a few issues with the initial release. Though you can always switch to the TestFlight version if you want to access the latest changes and fixes faster.

I checked the user’s instance, it hasn’t indexed any posts since 5 months.

Maybe the other issues are related to their instance as well.

Edit: The comments are not added to the instance either it seems, so they won’t get any replies to this post. :(

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

Sorry, looking back I feel like I may have come across a little critical or dismissive of your issues. I did not intend for that. I’m always happy to help, and I don’t want to discourage you from sharing feedback or issues.

I checked your instance and it has not indexed any posts from arctic community since 5 months.

Compare it to the arctic community on its original Lemmy.world instance:
