The Mana World Forums

During the last few days, when I click on "Buy" in ManaMarket nothing happens. In the past, clicking on "Buy" always brought up a screen showing the items for sale.

I'm not aware of any changes to ManaMarket, and the changes to server code aren't in until next week.

To aid in debugging, does this happen only after the last ManaPlus release?

This probably happend because MM overflow message string. Server ignoring messages like this.
MM have build in protection against very long strings, but i not sure how it really works.

I believe I downloaded version 1.3.9.1 on 9/5/13. The problem with ManaMarket started one or two days ago.

Found this in the logs:

maximum message length.

With the new server code there will no longer be any hard limit (other than the 65k one) on the length of a chat message ... it's still a good idea to limit it in the general case, but I *could* make an exception for anyone with a GM level (which includes bots) - I expect the client is just fine with receiving a longer message.

The whole "get rid of stupid limits" is the whole point of my rewriting ...

Im having same problem, my version of Manaplus is 1.4.1.4, what should i do?

Try check on other players, for me on ManaMarket buy works.

The option to buy is no longer available to me...

My access level is 0 and client is 1.3.12.22.

Default key is R.
