Haven't seen this one before. I'll look into it.

The one thing I thought might be the cause doesn't seem to be, based on my testing.

Does it happen immediately after you login or does it happen after letting your browser window sit open for a while? I think it might have something to do with sessions timing out.

I'll take a look. I have to admit that I'm stumped by this one.

The next time either of you see this error, please copy and paste the URL in your browser's address bar here (I mean the URL of the page throwing the error exactly as it appears in your address bar). I think it might be an issue with the address being constructed improperly in the unread post script.

I finally saw this error myself last night, so the good news is that you guys aren't crazy :) It's not a problem with the URL though, so I'll need to take a closer look at it.

Okay, there are 3 separate problems going on here based on the error messages I'm seeing.

ady, I think the initial issue you reported has been fixed. Please let me know if you experience any more errors that match the one you provided in the first post.

satanika, I think I fixed your issue. When I was querying the database for the first unread post, I was scanning all posts instead of ignoring saved draft posts like I should've been doing, so the unread post link was sometimes sending you to a draft post. Since they aren't visible to the public, it threw an error. That shouldn't happen from now on.

doubleofive, your links are throwing errors because those posts don't exist. I have no idea why you'd receive e-mail updates for posts that don't exist. Perhaps the posts were deleted before you had a chance to view them. Regardless, there should be an error message to handle such circumstances, so I'll add that. Can you tell me the date that those e-mails were sent to you?

There have been several occasions where users have accidentally double/triple posted recently; whenever I come across this I tend to remove the duplicate posts. Perhaps this is what happened.

Certainly possible. If someone has their settings configured to receive notifications with every reply, then those posts could go missing before they have a chance to view them.

I have a solution in mind to eliminate the double posting issue as well. It'll be in the next update.

OK, it does look like the first two links I posted point to two posts that don't exist.  Here is the header and first few lines for the first one:
