Web Control constantly refreshes

Post by Flapinux »

1. When I open the Web Control it constantly refreshes (about once per second) & has none of my information populated.
2. When I try another browser, it works normally, once. The next time I use it I get the same auto-refresh. Tested Edge, Opera, Chrome.
3. Folding itself is working normally & the information is correct when I try a new browser.
4. I have uBlock origin & privacy badger disabled or not installed on other browsers.
5. Deleting cookies doesn't help.
6. F12 & Hard Reload doesn't help.

Tried the F12 Hard Reload work-around to no avail.
Incognito mode worked.

There may have been some mixing up of methods then on the FAQ, I will look into that. The person who posted the F12 - dev tools workaround had given directions on how to use them to disable cache on the page.

I see a very recent 7.6.0 version of the advanced GUI client and web client on the Github that fixes this issue and adds a COVID-19 project in the dropdown menu. Any plans when this would be available for release, especially on Windows?

That is part of a planned future release, work on it is currently on hold meeting the needs of getting additional servers configured to send out work and handle the returns. There is a single developer, he has been given the servers as the priority.

(using Chromium Edge here) I found that F12 > Right click on refresh button > Empty cache and hard refresh works (tested on Chrome and that works too) :)

I am getting same-site security issues. It appears from what I can determine a recent Chrome update made it fatal. I tried the F12 trick that was mentioned above, but F12 just opens the Chrome debugger. What are you supposed to do then?

Sorry I got it - the refresh button isn't inside dev tools, its the refresh icon to the left of the home icon. Tried it and it worked.
