Title: Issues with PM Quota
Post by: anwar on April 27, 2011, 06:29:56 PM
@Murli - Lol I just got the same error message trying to ping you. I think the forum messaging has gone kaput or maybe routine maintenance. Could you put your number here if that's ok?
Hmmm.. Anyone who has PM quota full should look at the PM page (http://www.rcindia.org/pm) and see how much capacity they have left on the left side (below the "Preferences" section).

Forum Heros will have 1000 PM quota (both Inbox and Outbox together), Forum Veteran should have 500, Senior Member 150 and so on.  No change was *intentionally* done to this recently, so whoever is having issues, please let me know their quota status (ie "Capacity").

The question is about people whose quota got exhausted all of a sudden. Wonder what their capacities look like, and their total number of PMs.

Yeah there seems to be some problem, I couldn't send a pm to ankit(ankitbaid) and neither could VC bhaiya. But, when I asked him he said that only 17% was full.

Doesn't sound right... there was an issue this morning, but it should be fixed.

Hang on !

Can you send me a PM ?

Also, most people have enabled the option to save outgoing PMs in their Outbox, so if your own quota is full, then you will not be able to send PMs.

And what error do you get ?

I am facing problem sending Tracking no to 'anandrenuka' and 'Warlock' as PM.

Anwar, have you suddenly reduced the quota ? then just everybody needs to cleanup.

'anandrenuka' and 'Warlock', PM me your mail ids so that I can send you the tracking info.

Nope, it was like that for many months.  The only possibility was that it was not in effect for some unknown reason, until I made the group membership changes today.

I do see a "pm_error_data_limit_reached" error for you in the logs, and that is a clear indication that the quota was exceeded.

Hi Ujjwal,
I got the message when i tried to PM you : PM could not be sent to 'ujjwaana' as their inbox is full!

my email is anand.renuka@gmail.com

@anwar: my message box is only 35% full (i believe the limit is only 100 messages) so not sure why Ujjwal got the error.

Thanks,
Anand

Wonder if Ujjwal's mailbox is full ?  Also, does the problem persist even now ?

Anwar sir ,
I was able to send VC bhaiya a pm successfully but despite of having only 17 msgs in inbox and 4 in outbox (total max capacity : 100) i was unable to recieve any PM's.....
Wonder what the trouble was......but then i cleared all the messages and its on track now

Like I said, the issue could be on either side.  If the sender saves PMs in Outbox, then his quota needs to be checked too.  Or it can be the recipient.  I still want to see if there is a real issue even NOW.

And what error do you get ?
I got a message which basically said," Your message could not be sent as the recipients inbox is full".


P.S: The error has not been exactly reproduced here as I don't remember the exact words but this is what it was basically. And my outbox is not full. My total usage is only 6.2%, I have a capacity of 1000 pm's.

Apparently you have not read this thread :banghead: :(

Your quota is 500 messages, and between your Inbox and Outbox, you have exceeded that quota !

Please change your password to something temporary, and send it to me via PM or email to investigate further.

I see at least 221 in the Inbox.

Alternatively, just delete 10 or 15 old messages, and see if it fixes everything.

Ok, temporary fix, increased all quotas by 100 !

If you run into this again, please delete some old PMs.  The capacity meter seems to have a bug, not sure if it is counting everything.

Had to write a mod to fix this, and it just got approved by the developers of the forum software !  The mod is simple, getting to it took a bit of time though.

Also, this is mentioned clearly in the "terms and conditions" when you register... but it seems no one reads them ;)
