Scribe doesn't add new posts and cannot edit existing ones

[qomhmd]

Edited: I reduced the number of includes by base64 encoding and embedding most of the pictures into data.json. But the other problems persist.

---

I should mention that I have added posts to data/content.json manually.

Nothing is shown after I click on the "add a new post" button but in browser console:

[ZeroBlog] Unknown command

When I edit an existing post:

Connection with UiServer Websocket was lost. Reconnecting...

Meanwhile, my browser console says:

{error: 'Too many files in content.json'}

Also, after some lines about loading image file:

Uncaught TypeError: this.requestSite(...).then is not a function

having too many includes is only way you can get this error.

ZeroNet/src/Ui/UiWebsocket.py

Lines 1062 to 1065 in d570354

	inner_paths = [content_inner_path] + list(content.get("includes", {}).keys()) + list(content.get("files", {}).keys())
	if len(inner_paths) > 100:
	return {"error": "Too many files in content.json"}

Dear @canewsin

having too many includes is only way you can get this error.

I removed almost all files from the directory and the data.json, by base64 encoding and embedding; however, other problems and errors persist.

@qomhmd IMBW but one can loose track of which errors do you mean, that is why it is handy to keep these mentioned in original posts(OP)/first post of this issue for example or link to a log file that you uploaded (i am usually using expired paste at https://bin.disroot.org/) where i exclude unrelated lines so developer spend less time. Also your post is missing ZNX version number and operating system, python version. BTW. after changes in site file/s are signed, i may restart ZN.

@slrslr Thank you for your recommendation. I don't know yet whether the log file encompasses any errors, or I am supposed to check the browser console also. Nothing resolved after restarting ZN. Now is it better to edit the OP or start a new issue?

@qomhmd try checking next_post_id in data.json, sometimes this causes issue to not add new post.

@qomhmd try checking next_post_id in data.json, sometimes this causes issue to not add new post.

The id was correct beforehand; my last post_id is 449 and the next_post_id is 500.

May the problem be related to the discrepency of post_ids and date_published between posts? For instance there are:

• a post with id = 449 and time = 1660491060, and
• another post with id = 448 and time =1662049200 (as it was the modified date in the previous blogging system).
  As you see the id1 > id2 but the time1 < time2.

This log is selected from the original log file while ZeroNet was working in the offline mode, for a period following:

1. pressing "New post" button whereas nothing happens (except a browser console log of [ZeroBlog] Unknown command).
2. Then editing a post and trying to sign & publish, but ZN is disconnected and reconnected.

It seems that the culprit is adding images to the posts using markdown which would prevent us from adding new posts; if one deletes the related content, the functionality returns!
