Bug arcrade.php?do=break versus arcade.php

[IIS 7+] arcrade.php?do=break versus arcade.php

So the arcade was not working for us at all.

However, if we go to the arcade page at first doing arcade.php?do=break everything will work. Can you advise why this may be happening? Should we replace the default settings to always load this option, etc?

Sorry to post a new thread, but it has no bearing on our previous question and I think it would be more ideal for searchs.

That parameter cancels any existing games for the current user. Maybe something locked up somewhere that was causing a half-played game to be left in limbo?

If you default to that parameter, it will mean that users who browse the arcade while playing a game will lose their score.

Currently if you follow the navtab it does not work. It could still be due to APE not coverting the htaccess correctly. I'll try to write a configuration and post back if it works. Thanks for the info.

This was resolved by forcing the www on our web domain, using a url rewrite rule in IIS 7.

                <rule name="Add www" patternSyntax="Wildcard" stopProcessing="true">
                    <match url="*" />
                    <conditions>
                        <add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="www.website.com" negate="true" />
                    </conditions>
                    <action type="Redirect" url="http://www.website.com/{R:1}" />
                </rule>

Interesting, thanks for posting back with the solution
