Title: Multi-Site host flashes error message
Post by: jking on July 23, 2025, 11:47:12 AM

Hello everyone,

     I have a multi-site host running out on a server (C11.1 with NT 14.30).  I like to watch the web log as Get/Post messages come in, when I'm logged into the server.  Everything seems to work just fine.  However, I periodically see a small blue and white message box flash very quickly in the background.  It flashes by too quickly to read but does remind me of a NetTalk/Capesoft type message screen.  Has anyone else seen this?  Might it be an error message that does not stay displayed since NetTalk is set to not display errors?  I realize it might be difficult for someone to say, but if it is a common thing others have seen, perhaps they can tell me what it might be?

Thank you,

Jeff King

HI Jeff,
I am not running multi-site hosting so I have no answer.  Mike McLoughlin has been running a multi-site host for a while.  You might drop him an E mail at Sterling Data.  He might have some insight for you.

Hi Jeff

If it is a MessageBox screen perhaps the time is too short.
It's 100's of a second, try to increase, and there are also logging options

regards

Johan

Ron,

     Thanks!  I'll message him and see what he thinks.

Johan,

     Thanks for the response.  I don't think this is a MessageBox screen as it is too small.  Thinking about it more, it reminds me of messages I used to see when using FileManager.  I'll check my host app to see if FM is in use, but it is not something I regularly use.

     As for logging, anything in particular I should look for in the logs if I turn those on?

Thanks,

Jeff

Hello all,

     Turns out this was due to a report being generated.  Users click on a button to generate the report and it is converted to PDF.  The Report to PDF template displays a brief message on the server to indicate the report processing.  The report is not used all that often, until recently, and I had not seen this screen flash by before.  All is good!
