UPDATE II: I just tested this in Firefox and it works! I was using Chrome so something is happening. I don't know the process how the forum authenticates off the top of my head when posting. Can anyone enlighten why this might not work in Chrome (or why Chrome stopped authenticating)?
UPDATE I: I just noticed that others (at least two others) are able to post. This just got stranger.
ORIGINAL POST:
I'm still in the middle of investigating the issue but it's urgent, so I better post this.
I use a dedicated server and SQL Server 2005 Express.
I am trying to post text to the database but I'm not receiving any success message and it's not posting to the database.
The last time this happened, my SQL Server logs were full and with Express, it stops new data from being posted.
But, I am able to post new data to a different table of the same database so I don't think this is the issue.
I'm checking with other users to see if they're able to post.
Nothing has changed on the server or with the software so I'm not sure what's happening...
Any thoughts? |

| Are you using DB or NT authentication? I ask because if its the latter I've noticed some oddities with Chrome's handling of NT Authentication. |

| Is your database set to increase disk size automatically? The fact that you are able to write to a table doesn't mean you are trouble free regarding disk space. SQL Server usually allocates space before hand and only allocates again when it is needed. If you are using space already allocated for a table, he won't need aditional disk space until the existing space is used in full. |

The database size increases automatically. Are you saying that could be the issue?
Others can post at the same time using other browsers. I can too, but I can't post using Chrome. |

The issue is with Chrome? If it is, I am sorry to say it, but use a decent browser instead. I know this may not actually help, but why would you waste time with a browser that is not reliable?
I had Chrome installed for about 20 mins, and a couple of my regular sites didn't work with it. Removing it was the easiest decision...
In a forum I help running, a user posted a message about seeing images in posts that no one else was seeing. Imagine the browser in use! Going back to IE sorted it.
I am sorry, I wouldn't advise Chrome on anyone and if the issue is Chrome, you should maybe contact their support. If it happens just with that browser, that means there is nothing wrong with the forum, just with the browser. |

I'd love for that to be the answer. I do like Chrome and have never had any issues besides this. I've used it for a while, too. Additionally, Chrome is being widely adopted so this could be a compatibility issue that the forum software will eventually have to address.
Or it might just be my own configuration.

| I am sorry, this is no compatibility issue. The forum uses just HTML. The forum is run normally by IE, Firefox, Opera... The issue is Google Chrome, not the forum software. |

What about cookies, client-side sessions, javascript, etc...
I believe the issue is Google Chrome, definitely, so how would you suggest that I debug to figure out what's wrong with the way it interacts with the forum? |

| Probably would make sense to check what is happening with each piece of information submitted on the posting form, as well as whether the user is being identified or not... |
