[Solved] My Gravatar does not appear

goetz

It is NOT a browser cache problem. You can easily check by running the query on a command line tool like curl. The output is

@
$ curl -v "http://www.gravatar.com/avatar.php?gravatar_id=93fe6eb03daa9f497e9f8ff0b1fae5d4&size=48&default=http://developer.qt.nokia.com/images/qtdn/gravatar_empty.png"

Okay, maybe it was another service where that was the problem, then...

It seems that Gravatar stopped working on http, but is working on https.

That can be solved by Gravatar (working again on http URLs) or by Nokia (changing avatar code for "gravatars" to look at secure Gravatar server by default).

And in the mean time until somebody decides to correct it, we (users) can use https as default protocol. Not so bad (temporary) solution today with multi Mbps connections, I'm thankful that 14400 modems are long gone history ;)

Thanks for your valuable information.

I've made "a bug report on Jira":https://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTWEBSITE-330, so our friendly Trolls can pick it up.

My Gravatar appears now correctly.

Eddy

You're right.

Even http pages are shown correctly. I think Marius had fixed it. Good work!
In Jira he mentions a wrong default variable.

But the bugreport is still open for doing some testing I guess.

Gurudutt fixed it :) thanks for confirmation!

goetz

I can see it! I can see it! huzzaah :-)

Eddy

Thanks Gurudutt! well done.

@ Volker : the beginning of a new song?

I marked this topic as solved

goetz

Definitely not! If I start to sing the milk turns into cheese immediately :)

Eddy

LOL

And my singing is so bad it crawls back into a cow.

At least your talent is usefull ;P

OMG! How can you survive that? How can you make all the xmas pastries? Do you need CARE packages? Emergency Muffins?

mgran

The butter can be found on the "black market" now! 300g for 1000 NOK here: http://www.finn.no/finn/torget/tilsalgs/annonse?finnkode=32210678

Thats over 400 EUR per kilo :)

I'm going to Finland next week - I'm checking in with luggage on the way back :D

goetz

That's incredible! But I think we should move to the lounge, we're getting slightly offtopic :)
