Freesound Forums

Happy NY to the crew!
Got an "CSRF verification failed. Request aborted." when I tried to login from the main Freesound page.
Finally, via a direct "Login" link in Google, I got in.
But I see no preview waveforms, can't hear any sound, can't download...
Is the site under serious attack? I hope not.
Cheers

Hey

How's it going with this issue of yours?

We did have a problem briefly with the CDN that affects sound content delivery, because they're served from a remote server. It all good now though.

As for the "verification failed" message you got. Has that resolved also? Seems odd because these two things shouldn't be linked, so I'm thinking it might have been pure coincidence.

p.s. in future, it may be quicker to get an answer if you get in touch with freesound via the contact form. https://freesound.org/contact/

Hi there. I can't use FS anymore. There are literally no preview waveforms, no sound, no downloads. Is it just on my machine? How can this be solved? Thanks!

It's just you i'm afraid. Sounds like a browser issue. Try a different web browser to see if the issue is isolated to that particular application. Then you know that you should do the following...

First try to delete your cache. I don't know what browser you're using but usually in the privacy section of the settings you'll find an option to wipe browsing data. That often helps clear up weird behaviour like this if it's bloated.

It's also worth trying to disable any plug-ins or extensions you may have running and then see if it works.

Thanks for your answer.

Now, after weeks, it suddenly works again in my browser, without changing anything.

Hm... ok. Jetzt geht es wieder nicht. Ich benutze Opera.
Hab es nun in Chrome probiert und da geht es auch nicht.

Kann ja dann kein Browser-Problem sein, oder?
