+Firth of Forth Posted December 28, 2004 Posted December 28, 2004 For the last two days I have run 5 PQs each day. According to g.com they have been generated, but I have received only 2 out of the 10 emails. The PQs have run correctly and I have verified, using 'preview', that they generated the caches that I wanted. All of the 10 different PQs were the same except for requesting caches placed between different dates. There is no apparent reason why the 3rd and the 10th of the PQs were sent to me and not the others. Any ideas why I haven't received the emails?
+parrothead_madness Posted December 28, 2004 Posted December 28, 2004 Me too, and no spam filter. No settings have changed. Looked in all the places program could have dumped it, looked on line at the webmail server to see if it dumped it. Nope. I never got any of them. Makes it hard to go out caching!
+ZackJones Posted December 29, 2004 Posted December 29, 2004 I ran some new PQs yesterday and they did make it to me - it took several hours though so perhaps the PQ server and/or email servers are backlogged. Something to try is sending the PQ to an alternate account. I know I can't send them to my work account due to a corporate spam filter
+OzGuff Posted December 29, 2004 Posted December 29, 2004 I have been receiving my PQs but then run into a problem while trying to load them into my PDA. CacheMate gives me a parse error. (Not too tech-savvy so have no idea what this means.) Old PQ files can be loaded with no problem, but some new ones get the above error. Any clues? (I have reloaded everything onto my PDA, updated the CacheMate files, etc.)
+ZackJones Posted December 29, 2004 Posted December 29, 2004 I'll bet there's some chartacter in the PQ that's causing it to choke. If you want forward the PQ to me zackojones@hotmail.com and I'll take a look at it and see if I can spot the problem.
+OzGuff Posted December 29, 2004 Posted December 29, 2004 Thanks for the offer ZJ! I have already sorted it out -- thanks also to nittany dave -- by changing the PG parameters a little which apparently deleted the cache causing the parse error. So it doesn't help for future problems but I'm going to Atlanta Friday and need the PDA now!
+Firth of Forth Posted December 30, 2004 Author Posted December 30, 2004 Ran 5 today and all arrived safely. Possibly it was due to a filter on my email system that I had set up to block certain emails, and have now deleted, but I'm not sure.
