Hello, I think this should now be fixed via above patch. In case this repeats, let us know.

Hi petk, thanks for your fix. However, this issue still / again exists

as expected.

are you sure? Because your vote doesn't show in that bugreport? I tried voting on https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77163 but I get a 500-server-error. There should be an exception logged somewhere accordingly?

Maybe this is caused by me using ipv6. The code uses ip2long which doesn't work for ipv6 - also, the schema uses int(10) instead of varbinary(16)

Oops, I've meant <https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77124>.  Before
I voted, there was only a single vote.

Just voted on <https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77163> (also while
being logged out), and it worked fine.

Aha!  Re-opening.

I've attached a pull request https://github.com/php/web-bugs/pull/53

This will also require to change the database schema where the ip column is currently integer to a new varbinary(16) type. Additionally current values should be converted accordingly... Maybe someone with server access can give some more pointers this could be approached and fixed.

Thanks.

Since I can't vote - I'll leave a message. I'm getting the same thing. Can't vote on any bugs.

I experience the same problem, but funnily I cannot upvote the bug. ;-)

So it is deadlocked forever because it cannot gain the 5 score. ;-)

There was a patch, but it would require also upgrading the live database:
