I searched for other closed/open issues related, and they were closed without resolution:

  1. Can no longer add or edit URL's #1887
  2. Infinite spinning circles - Can't modify, add or delete any URL's #2089
  3. Hmm I thought I saw a 3rd one, but just about to run out the door, will edit later

Perhaps someone could offer some insight? I can confirm there was nothing in console, even with debug mode on (no CORS blocks or anything like that).

I checked out the site to get things working or I wouldn't have been able to add/edit/view things to begin with :) I have about 3 pages of links. It started when I went to edit a link, then that's when I realized.. nothing works! Funny enough, you can still delete. I can view and delete, but not edit or add. Strange, right?

Issue 1887 (#1 link above) has the EXACT issue as me -- worked fine, suddenly doesn't work with same reproduced results.

The last activity performed that I recall was adding "blog3" shorturl to a tumblr site. Doesn't seem too iregular : https://myblogtumblr.com/post/12345679/url-is-quite-long-with-dashes-like-this

I don't know if it was triggered by that or when I went to edit a random entry that's related to another social site - nothing special or no odd naming conventions or special chars.

There is one consistent thing I noticed: Every open issue, the same mod closed it blaming the hosting service: How about instead of closing this ticket, let's work together and find the solution, hm? This seems to be reproduced lately.

Another thing to add that seems quite important: I reinstalled using a new db, and seemed to work again. I curiously swapped back to the old DB to see if that would work. Everything was back AND I could add things .. and a few days later, this issue reproduced identically: Can suddenly, randomly, no longer add/edit.

Technical details

  • YOURLS version: Latest
  • PHP version: 5.6
  • Win10 with multiple stable browsers

Reproducible Bug Summary

  1. Install yourls and setup db
  2. Run yourls successfully for a few weeks
  3. Out of nowhere, I cannot change, add links. No changes at all. I almost wish I did change something so I knew what caused this.

This is a bug because you can no longer add/edit urls or you get a loading GIF that never goes away.
