DigiChat 4.0
FlyerTalk Chat currently uses DigiChat 3.5.0.622, which has some problems when accessed from a Mac OS X system (scrollbars disappearing, etc.). Digi-Net claims their new v4.0 "fully supports" Mac OS X.

Press Release

Has anyone tried the newer software yet?

Speaking of chat I found it was weird in the past hour. Dropped me out after a couple of hours and now will not allow me back on claiming 'user ozstamps already logged on'. That has happened now and again before but always finally works. Rebooted computer and tried again just now. Same message. Used Netscape and IE. Anyone else getting strange things like that?

Yes, we upgraded our own chat servers with 4.0 today, EPS, you might want to test the chat on the www.digichat.com website, they are also running 4.0 and operate several chat rooms to test their products.

We'll go check it out and see about upgrading...

UPDATE: We've been talking with DigiChat and they'll be upgrading our hosted chat early next week. They've said that there isn't any recoding necessary on our side, so the switch should be automatic when it happens. If anyone experiences login problems with the chat, let us know.

Just got a hang, and now not getting in at all. Looks like it is not too seamless for users.

I hate to say "me too", but, well, "me too". Can't get into chat at all, just hangs on the connect screen.

Make that THREE.

I gave up after 10 minutes.

Dan, could you post a general message to all of us when it's fixed? Thanks for all of your work on FT technical stuff.

There was an active chat session going on last night, when abruptly it terminated, dumping all of us. Two hours later, people were still unable to return to Chat. I just checked and was able to get in easily. Were we dumped at the point that the software upgrade occurred?

It's still the old version so it looks like a problem at Digichat caused it...

I spoke with DC this morning and they said that they should have all their hosted chats (such as ours) moved over to version 4 by this Friday. Last week they told me by this Monday, so who knows...

I had them reboot the chat environment to clear out some ghost accounts that were in there. It's probably going to be a little bumpy until they switch us all the way over...

Has been pretty flakey in past 7 days or so. Lots of folks getting dumped with no notice by reports on chat.

Was dumped out of chat at 7pm MST 08/30. It took nearly 10 minutes to get back in.

Are we all on Version 4.0 yet?

A big me too ( or 10 or 20). This has been consistently flaky for the last 10 days or so
