We're getting a bunch of them now. I believe the image from the error above was one of the two in this thread: https://theadminzone.com/threads/best-update-notice-ever.129745/

I believe they were always attachments.

Can you look in the log internal_data/MetaMirror.log, find any lines that look like they are doing something at the time of the error. You should get something like:
You could also search for individual post ids, like 937126 (the second post with an image in that thread)

This seems to be the same problem that @The Sandman is having. I can also repeat it here, so I should be able to fix it.
Basically linking to a bad .PNG file causes MetaMirror to crash before it can flag the image as bad, so it keeps attempting to fetch it.
Rather odd that it just started happening for two people at the same time, as MM has been stable for many months now. Must be some other update causing or revealing the problem.

I'm @The Sandman 's server adminThose are the logs from his server.
Aha! So that's a bit less ominous. Seems like it's a just a single rare malformed .PNG file.
I'll try to get a fix out to handle this case.

The errors, which were coming every 4 or 5 minutes, seem to have stopped.
Thanks Mick!

Great! They would have been every five minutes, as that's when the cron job runs. It was getting stuck on that one bad image. Now it will just mark them as broken.

Sorry, I've been AFK. If this still an issue?

yes sir it is, as you can see all the server errors are from this particular one. Check about 10+ pages all the same.

I have installed MetaMirror.
It works well execpt for this strange double pic effect.
When I hotlink an image, it gets converted without issues, but if I come back to edit the post, Not the picture itself but typing errors etc, and then save, the rehosted image always get a second of the same image at the bottom, so two of the same image and I cannot remove it.
The second image just keeps coming back, and if I do delete it, the original image is gone, only a linky that leads to an error.
How do I stop this odd behavior?
Edit note - I worked it out that it happens when the image gets re-hosted hence the double image post. Testing with use attachments disabled

Alright, works as intended with use attachments disabled, not fully happy with that as I would like to be able to have uploaded file in the "more options" editing box without the double pic post.
Cannot have everything you want I guess.

Do you have other add-ons that do things with attachments or images?
