TOPIC: Emoticon Flood - 500 Internal Server Error

It appears that anyone can wreck a website with joomlacomment installed by posting hundreds of emoticons in their comment. If someone does this, it causes a 500 internal server error and brings down the entire website. Yikes!

If this happens the best way to fix the problem is to delete the table row containing the emoticon flood comment in the joomla database.

Hopefully the new release will address this flaw.

Ok, I would like to know why 100 emoticons causes your server to get internal server error?
Can you copy the exact message from the error log

I don't know where my error log is. Maybe you can tell me where I can find it. You can probably test it by flooding your own website with emoticons, I don't want to bring down my own site again. Let me know how it goes with your test.

Thanks for your help and for this excellent component!

No internal server error.

To find the error log look in your cpanel.
