+David Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I am in the same shape. I tried to run mine last night and again this morning with no success. Last ran 11/29/09. Link to comment
knowschad Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 There is a thread in the main geocaching forum where several cachers are reporting the same thing. Link to comment
+rob3k Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 (edited) I'm potentially hitting this as well. Submitted it 2 hours 30 minutes ago (about) and it still hasn't run. "Add to Queue" button is still active for it and it's still showing the last run date of 1/6. Hoping it's just a logjam and it will come through sometime in the next 1-24 hours. I've hit the button a few additional times including just now. Not sure if that drops me to the back of the line or not? (i.e. should I not do this? ) My other PQs have been running without problem.

+DonB Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 (edited) clicking it to be added to the queue does nothing right now :-( The reported last date run is >12 days ago, yet it doesn't allow me to trigger it I've been having this problem for quite some time, and have turned it in to TPTB twice now. I just keep going back and clicking the button until the date changes. I was told to just wait and it will change after the first time you click it, but that's not true. I have clicked it and came back and checked it quite a bit later and it still hadn't changed. Sometimes I have had to click it six or seven times before it changes.

+Markwell Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 When you click it, it moves into the "queue" of pocket queries to be generated. The "Add to Queue" button doesn't disable until the pocket query actually runs (not how *I* would have designed it, but that's just me). So clicking it it six or seven times didn't change it. When the PQ generated it changed it. It's kind of like pushing the up button while waiting for an elevator to arrive. Pushing it again doesn't make the door open, but on the sixth or seventh time, the door opens. For those that have had it generated (there's a date/time, but no e-mail), it may be hung up with your ISP - especially if you're getting others. Might it be that there's a size restriction on the files you can receive? Link to comment
+aStrongOne Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I too have not been able to get "My Finds" PQ to run today. Last time I used it was 14 days ago. The only good news is that this forum lets me know it is just not my problem. Hope GC gets it fixed soon. Link to comment
+Let's Look Over Thayer Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Add me to the list... Last time MyFinds PQ ran was 1/11/2010 11:12:43 AM Clicking the button causes the page to refresh but nothing else seems to happen. Normal PQ's come through just fine. Link to comment
+sejtam Posted January 30, 2010 Author Share Posted January 30, 2010 For those that have had it generated (there's a date/time, but no e-mail), it may be hung up with your ISP - especially if you're getting others. Might it be that there's a size restriction on the files you can receive? If it was hung with the ISP (ie mailed out already) the 'last generated' date on the page should have changed, but it doesn't.. Link to comment
+Markwell Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 The system does appear to be hung up in the generation, not in the e-mailing Link to comment
+Socal ZukiCachers Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Well, I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one having this problem. I thought I was loosing my mind for something! Hopefully they will get it working again soon. Does any know if the "My Finds" query runs on the save server as the regular Pocket Queries? Thanks, David Link to comment
+suzelin Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Same here from The Netherlands. Seems to be a global problem Link to comment
Guest preisl Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Same here ... doesn't do a thing. Actually I suspect it to be broken for a couple of days, since I tried to get a list of my finds last wednesday but didn't pay any attention when I didn't get it ... regards, Martin Link to comment
+Hurricanefan Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I have had all kinds of issues since they have "upgraded" the website, I can't get find pcoket query to run, Always getting error on page, and constantly need to refresh screen to show data, also when pocket queries are run the query is not containing all the logs for caches, random logs are missing when reviewing the cache on GPS'r or just opening in GSAK..So I guess it is kinda the 1 step forward 2 step backward approach..Does anyone no if this is being worked on by the Website gurus????

Might it be that there's a size restriction on the files you can receive? I'm sorry but I don't buy what you're saying. My regular PQs work as always and I'll usually have the email in less then two minutes. The My Finds PQ used to work the first time I clicked on the button and I would have my PQ within a couple of minutes. After it quite working I turned it in twice and also did some did some experimenting on my own because I was told exactly what you are saying. One time I would clicked the button until the date changed and I would have my PQ within a minute or two. The next time I would click the button once and if it didn't change I would just leave it alone and wait. One time I waited two days and never did get the PQ. I have repeated this so called experiment two or three different times and the results were always the same. I don't remember when this all started, but if I remember right it was after there was some kind of a software change or upgrade. Link to comment
+motorcity0628 Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Same with me - after 6 hrs my last generated date is still indicated as 20 January, but I'm getting other PQs as normal. From what I read here it sounds like something's definitely broken. Link to comment
+iamasmith Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Yep I have this problem too. Went away to Scotland for a couple of weeks over Christmas and didn't generate one whilst away. Came back, triggered it, nothing. 1 WEEK later I got a processed My Finds automatically Not been able to get one since. Link to comment
+MikieP Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Add me to the list. Last run date is 7/9/2009, so it should have jumped near the top of any queue, but no date change shown as yet. Link to comment
+lotochrome Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Yep, same problem for me. When I click the page refreshes but the date does not change and I do not get the email. My other PQs are working fine. Also I do not enough finds to over load my email system. But hey you can send you information straight to Twitter!!! Isn’t that the real important thing about the game? Link to comment
+ctrlbreak Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I've got the same problem. Tried it a few times yesterday and today but didn't get a pocket query with my finds and the last generated date still shows 12/31/2009. Other queries work without problems though Link to comment
+cdrosd Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 My last successful My Finds PQ was January 17. I have tried several times in the last 10 days. I usually just punch the run button and then check my email sometime later (an hour or a day) because I knew that I wouldn't get any indication on the PQ page until after it ran. Is this bug related to the site upgrade or just a coincidence? I'd like to see a fix soon also. Link to comment
+Damned Rodan Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Add the same problem for me. Definitely appears to be an issue with the generation of the PQ, not an ISP or email problem. Link to comment
+EvilTree Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 O.k there is enough of us that posted that the "MY Finds" is Busted... Now the question is when is it going to be fixed? or a Groundspeak rep going to let us know they are working on it?? Mine hasnt worked since 1/17/2010 5:44:12 PM Link to comment
+Cardinal Red Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 ... Is this bug related to the site upgrade or just a coincidence? I'd like to see a fix soon also. They were having the same problem three weeks ago, before the upgrade. See a fix soon? I don't doubt someone will bring this back to life again. But if someone worked on your car, and three weeks later the same problem came back, would you say they actually fixed anything? Pocket Queries, My Finds Link to comment

+DanOCan Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I may as well pile on as well -- last run was January 16. All other queries run fine. The server handling "My Finds" must have died or something. I suspect we may be sitting until Monday. Link to comment
+rob3k Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Mine never did run. Still showing 1/6 as the last run date. Clicked the button again just now since I was on the page, but I guess that makes no difference. I'll probably e-mail Groundspeak about it tomorrow or Monday if it's still stuck. Link to comment
+JesandTodd Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Didn't work for me either... Just checked this site to see if something was up. Apparently it is... Link to comment
+Ocean Lovers Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Add us to the list. I haven't gotten a MyFinds PQ since January 16, 2010, and I have tried to get one at least a half a dozen times since then. Other PQs run quickly. Is anyone at Groundspeak going to address this issue? Link to comment

When I clicked it it just would refresh the page. After about 15 clicks, it finay greyed out the button and I had my pq in under a min. It USUALLY takes me 6 clicks to generate. So yes, clickng it over and over again DID work. Link to comment
+WallynSC Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 My Finds pocket query came in this morning and it is exactly the same as the one I ran on Jan15. Same file number, same contents, none of my finds in the last two weeks are included. The date reset and I can not run another "My Finds" query for a week. Link to comment

The PQ arrives shortly. The button doesn't gray out until a screen refresh after the PQ actually ran (not "requested".) Link to comment
Ranger Fox Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 So, I guess those of us who have not yet found a cache cannot run a My Finds query? I see the following and an error message (not an exception) if I make a GM script to enable the button: Methinks the hamsters have a conspiracy of their own. Link to comment
+kestrel76 Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Weird, I was able to generate a My Finds PQ quickly and when I uploaded it to itsnotaboutthenumbers.com it generated the stats just as fast. However, when I pasted the HTML into my profile page I found that it shows nothing - just headings for the items I picked, but no data. Is this just because of server overload, or is something else wrong? I haven't had this happen before, and had not tried to upload the PQ results since before the GC website upgrade. Coincidence?

So what are you expecting from "My Finds" if you have no finds? (But you are right. You can't run it if you have no finds.) Link to comment
Ranger Fox Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 So what are you expecting from "My Finds" if you have no finds? (But you are right. You can't run it if you have no finds.)I have finds on this user account. I've found some caches and the page reported I hadn't. The problem I reported does seem to be fixed. I wasn't expecting the PQ to run, so changed my email address back to the main one, which loses all PQs sent to it even though I've placed the PQ email server on a white list. Looks like I'll have to wait another week, change email addresses again, and run it. Link to comment
