custom avatars not refreshing

[ibjohn]

OK i've seen this posted but no resolution to the problem
Everytime i refresh while in a thread or after posting the avatars show up as a broken link(red x)I checked the path and thats not the problem
so it must be some sort of server configuration
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Is this a PHP or MySQL configuration issue

Thanx in advance ~_^

you probally turned hotlink protection on and didnt configure it right :\

[ibjohn]

you probally turned hotlink protection on and didnt configure it right :\

I don't think that's the problem
I'm hosted on UnixFreeBSD and the are NO .htaccess files on the entire site :P

[Zachery]

do the other images on the site work?

[ibjohn]

do the other images on the site work?

yes they do
All other images are working

[ibjohn]

Does anyone know the source of this problem?

[Steve Machol]

No sorry. It's definitely server and/or ISP related.

[ibjohn]

any clues on what the server issue is?

[Steve Machol]

Sorry, if I knew I would have posted it.

[Zachery]

do all avatar images not work?

do any of the avatars uploaded tot he databasework?

[ibjohn]

No sorry. It's definitely server and/or ISP related.

Ok I have solved this problem myself and it was a vbulletin issue
avatar.php

if ($avatarinfo=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT avatardata,dateline,filename FROM customavatar WHERE userid=".intval($userid))) {
  header("Cache-control: max-age=31536000");
  header("Expires: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s",time()+31536000) . " GMT");
  header("Content-disposition: inline; filename=$avatarinfo[filename]");
  header("Content-Length: ".strlen($avatarinfo[avatardata]));
  header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s",$avatarinfo[dateline]) . " GMT"); 

I removed "dateline" from the first line in the snipet
and now everything works

Now if you can just enlighten me on what i did
That would be most apreciated

Maybe this can help anyone else that has had this problem

IT'S VERY ANNOYING

What file is that code from? I suspect there's a field missing in your customavatar table.

It was from avatar.php

Do you really think that could be the problem

The avatars(b4 i erased anything)would show up fine when you went to a post.
When u refreshed or made a new post and was brought back to the thread
They would show up as broken links but the link was valid
I could hit the back button in the browser,then move forward again then they would show up

Can u tell me what field u suspect me missing and i can check for it

[Steve Machol]

Since it works when you remove 'dateline' that's the field I would check.

[ibjohn]

Yes the field is there
do you think it could be configured wrong?
