Trying to submit an album but every time I hit the "submit" button, a blank white screen with "Generic error page" written on the upper left corner appears. I just submitted an album 5 minutes before this started happening and it went through fine. ? ------------- That shows you the power of music, that magician of magician, who lifts his wand, says his mysterious word and all things real pass away and the phantoms of your mind walk before you clothed in flesh. |

We have that problem all the time on MMA, and since this is on the same servers and system... It generally seems to stem from an artist page with disallowed characters in its name and URL ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/TullDerGraff" rel="nofollow">

| It usually happens if the album with same name already exists (double entry prevention) |

No, that gives you a specific message about the album already existing, not a generic error page (I found out yesterday when I couldn't read) ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/TullDerGraff" rel="nofollow">

Also might be worth checking - I have found in the past (on MMA) that when you get a generic error page it still adds the thing, but without the pictures uploaded edit: no, not there. Maybe that is just for artists ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/TullDerGraff" rel="nofollow">

Hey, thanks! How the hell did you guys add all the info so fast? Some type of special program or just extremely fast typers? lol ------------- That shows you the power of music, that magician of magician, who lifts his wand, says his mysterious word and all things real pass away and the phantoms of your mind walk before you clothed in flesh. |

But dont you guys still have to type all the info, songs, time, and then still download the pic to your pc, then upload it to the site along with the info? You guys did it so damn fast. Let me in on the wizardy! I want to add a great deal but can't do more than a couple at a time since it's rather tedious. ------------- That shows you the power of music, that magician of magician, who lifts his wand, says his mysterious word and all things real pass away and the phantoms of your mind walk before you clothed in flesh. |

You can usually copy-paste from other places, and then just tweak it slightly to fit JMA's formatting standard
