   @hiker does the s.russwurm instance give you that msg? You can also join from your instance in classic mode (profile→+remote→add group url)

     @blog2read I'm no expert, but probably more info is needed: do specific groups fail constantly, or does joining 1 group need several tries?

     @mcscx I'm also running into problems when joining certain groups though not with that message (but the UI may hide the message, of course). Could be a StatusNet«-»GNU Social incompatibility or even incompatibilities between different GS versions/implementations. Maybe combined with other factors. Fact is, I cannot join the #tea group.

     @blog2readIt is impossible to debug this without knowing which instances, groups and accounts are involved. cc: @hiker

     @mk I guess there was already a #tea group on old-identica and your instance knows that group and tries to connect to identi.ca →

     @mk → even though you tell your instance to join quitter\.se/group/tea. This #groupnameconflict problem seems to need debugging

     • tea
     @mk I've jst been able to remote-join the !tea group from my Vinilox acct, so the culprit doesn't seem to be the instance hosting the group

     @mcscx that is certainly needed, even if (?) it's not the problem in my case. these things need to be morer robust, if things don't work as a result of something (still) sitting on an 'abandoned' server... maybe the code could try some fallbacks to work around problems like that. http«-»https can occasionally also cause problems with joining/subscribing

     @mk you can test this by trying to join quitter·se groups that were likely existent on identica (e.g. !wordpress), vs newer groups

     @mcscx hmm, there's an idea...

     @hiker I noticed the #Need>1TriesToJoinAGroup, esp. w/instances w/ overloaded network→remote-sub timings should be more tolerant !gnusocial

     @hiker@social.bitcast.info @mcscx Hmm. s.russwurm.org is up, showing no strange behaviour. I'm hesitant to twiddle the !DB manually; perhaps it is my previous twiddles that are the root cause of today's problems :(

     @bobjonkman likely a timing/slowness issue (maybe not on your side). I could join !tzaf from my vinilox acct, just took some seconds more.
