It just stays stuck on "Loading".

[markreg]

It just seems really slow...

[JohnMcLear]

Anything on the client?

[markreg]

I get the main page to create a new pad and once I click on "New Pad" it takes me to the etherpad-lite interface then it says "Loading" on the interface for a long time...after about 8 minutes it loads everything but when I type in the client it doesn't update anything on the server and then the client says it needs to reconnect to the server.

If it helps...I installed etherpad-lite in a slightly non conventional way on a host that has restricted access to yum therefore I had to install each package manually. But installDeps.sh doesn't give me any errors other than:

npm WARN gzip@0.1.0 package.json: bugs['web'] should probably be bugs['url']
npm WARN log4js@0.3.9 package.json: bugs['web'] should probably be bugs['url']

[aicm]

I can confirm this. Having the same issue on a normal install. I did not wait 8 minutes, but I usually have to restart etherpad to make it responsive again.

I'm currently proxying it via apche, but even directly (on 9001) it behaves the same.

[markreg]

Yeah I can't do anything to fix it...tried reinstalling eeverythign from scratch and still the same problem.

[phrozen77]

I've solved it with setting proxy_buffering off; in the vhost conf (location /) - try and see if it helps

(all assuming you're reverse proxying to nginx)

[aicm]

That's great! I'm glad to hear that. I'll try to implement that setting in my apache config as well, just in case.

However, my issue is there even when accessing etherpad-lite itself on port 90001 (which shouldn't have anything to do with my apache reverse proxy config).

[markreg]

I'm not even using apache in the loop. This is the same problem as aicm with connecting to etherpad-lite directly on port 9001.

I have come to the conclusion that there is something wrong with my socket.io not receiving data from the client of visa-versa after trying out many different socket.io applications with node. It's almost like it's stuck. Unfortunately I'm not getting much help on socket.io's github or google groups.

[JohnMcLear]

Try grabbing a version of etherpad-lite from a few weeks ago, do you have the same problem?

[markreg]

How can I download an older version?

[JohnMcLear]

https://github.com/Pita/etherpad-lite/zipball/1.0

is from August.

It says I need to downgrade my version of node to 0.4.x. Should I do so?

[JohnMcLear]

Yep, worth a shot.

[soul9]

same issue here, a commit between now and about two weeks ago causes this issue. I have proxy_buffering set to off in nginx.
Last revision that works properly for me is 53bf7dc , so the bug was introduced right at the next commit, saying 2e79bd5 : fixed socket.io logging
Thanks

[aicm]

Okay, it has to be before fb158d2 because I had this issue then as well.
