Ok, so reading through this and other forums, I know that it is a well-known fact that with the DNN forum if a user is replying to a post in a thread, and they're writing a 100,000 word response, that if the system times out/logs them out while they are busy with chapter 56 of their response, the thread they are responding to will ultimately get corrupted... Right?
Ok, so I've followed the suggestions on this board and tweaked the web.config file for a longer timeout/logout time, I've also run the SQL script that was mentioned, and nothing seems to work. The corrupted thread is listed as an "anonymous" with an id of -1 (even though the SQL command was supposed to correct that, yes?)
Now - Is there a way to somehow "delete" the problem/corrupted post even though there is no way to do so through the forum's moderation areas?
I'm just trying to find a solution to this issue so we don't loose all the content in the effected thread.
According to some of the threads here, this problem has been taken care of, but I don't see the solution posted.
I'm currently running DNN 04.05.05 and the forum module is 04.04.03
Here's the most recent "General Exception" error that shows up in the Event Viewer. (I hope this helps)
