Thanks for going through the effort of debugging that! I'll check it out

Not sure if counts, but searching about the 530 error on Google, I found that a possible reason is that the password could be corrupted. Maybe changing it could fix the error??
Well, the error message says that it's about missing encryption, so...
If I'm reading this right, you need to set "server type" to "Server type FTPS/SSL (AUTH SSL)" in the settings? Alternatively, FileZilla seems to work for a bunch of people, if ws_ftp doesn't work please try that.

Nope, I still can't enter to the ftp, the 530 error still appears for me
if it's the error message you mentioned in an earlier post, you need to enable encryption. I checked and ws_ftp should support that. also, make sure to use "network.mugenguild.com" as the hostname.

Apparently, new files are uploaded with the wrong permissions, no read for group or public
Changed a relevant setting, might be better now?

Derp. How bout now?
QuoteStill using FileZilla. I have very little knowledge about using these things, so if possible I would prefer not changing to another client thingy.
no worries, filezilla should be fine.
Assume that even those that didnt pop up here are still using it, a lot of people dont visit the forum looking for things like this until they try and it fails.
that might be. there are 33 accounts though, with a couple of names I don't recognize at all anymore..

Whoop, lots of interest in this nice to see, those things kind of went on with the years and I had no feeling for how many people were even still using the service. I'll try to keep up here until things work for everyone interested!
I fixed some permissions issues, that should fix the "550 Permission denied" for folks who were already able to log in.
Generally: The server requires an encrypted connection now. It's 2020, we shouldn't use unencrypted connections anymore. I would expect ftp programs to handle this transparently, but if not, please check if explicitly enabling something like "ftps" or "starttls" in your clients works. If they don't and you still get encryption-related errors, you'll have to use a different ftp client, sorry about that. Make sure to set the server as "network.mugenguild.com", not "mugenguild.com" so the server certificate matches the expected server. I previously had this set up as "mugenguild.com", but that might lead to future confusion since the logins are really all for network.mugenguild.com (except xg I guess).
@xg I had messed up your password I think. Please try again.

looks like kelexo's server is serving an incorrect tls certificate. I removed that link for now. But it is a bit problematic that we are linking to external domains at all for https integrity. might need to do something about that.
that said, bitdefender is being pretty annoying there, browsers just don't display that image so there is no risk there. I guess anti-malware applications are incentivized to have a bit of a false positive rate, to justify their existence.

I believe I restored the ftp logins, can someone confirm theirs still works?
I'm a bit inclined to ask active members to ping me to get their accounts back, because there seem to be quite a bunch of dead ones. Also, all of them have had the same password in basically forever

join the discord you donk. it would be easier to test there.
I guess I'll join for a while. But I don't care to install the app or keep that tab open all the time, honestly.
fixed the topic search, I think. also a bunch more smaller warnings. error log is almost clean now

Ok I think I fixed the "data too long" error. At least it's no longer coming up in the logs
I really wonder why some of these are only happening now. The database error looks like it should have come up wayyy earlier

We're still getting the occasional user reporting on Discord that they're unable to login to the forums; the same "Data too long for column 'value' at row 1" error. They haven't been able to login even after clearing their cookies, nor tried logging in in an incognito window, or used another browser, etc: none of it works. And I can only imagine that there's a far, far greater number of people who haven't been able to login who also aren't on the Discord...
I'm not seeing that database error in the log anymore - but perhaps affected people have just stopped trying. Can you ask one of those folks to try again, so I get the db error into recent logs? otherwise perhaps I broke something in logging, "data too long" is pretty hard to track without insight on which data at which position 
Mobile version of the website is broken, by the way.
you mean, more broken than before? was that ever in a working state? I could apply some tweaks to make the desktop version more mobile friendly, but I definitely won't be able to make an actually working mobile version of the site

Fixed two more bits, and I found the place where the database error happens. No idea why that is a thing now but not before, but I added some logging so I can figure out what's going on.

still getting reports of a lot of errors for some people logging in that get the date too long thing.
yeap, still a bunch of errors to fix 
HTTPS might not be set up right on the forum index, but I don't see the ! next to the lock (signifying HTTPS) on Firefox on any other part of the forum.
It is set up right. The "!" is a mixed content warning, specifically it complains about images served via HTTP such as the one in your signature. I suppose the correct fix would be to change http links in [img] tags to https automatically, which would work but also break images from http-only servers.

I fixed a bunch of random errors (that were actually piling up to millions of logged error entries). That *might* have fixed some things, but if not hopefully I can at least trace errors better now without huge amounts of log spam.
