I’ve been unable to watch pages for quite some time now. I keep hoping these updates will fix the issue but they haven’t.
I click on the + and it turns to an x but the page is not added to the watched tab. Also, on page refresh, the x returns to a +
I checked the response in firebug and all is says is “Loading …”
Also, firebug reports no errors.

Update:
Watching from the “Pages” pane.
I can watch pages listed under Most Recent but NOT Most Popular
Unless you can provide a specific error I’m not sure I can do anything about this. I cannot reproduce the problem. I am able to watch/unwatch pages regardless of tab.
What version of Firefox are you using?
I’m having the same issue. Here is a screencast of my experience with Firebug visible.
Using Firefox 2.0.0.11 on Mac OS 10.5. Only lead I have is that the domain I’m seeking to track is https.
Shawn, how else would you suggest debugging this? How else can I show more information about this bug? screencast.com/t/ba4bafJXc
slt, What version of Mint/Default Pepper are you using? Where is your Mint installed? What url are you trying to watch? Does that url contain the Mint JavaScript include (you can only Watch pages that Mint is already tracking)? Can you Watch any other url? Can you Watch the url using the + link in any other tab of the Pages pane?
Like I said before, unless we can identify the cause of the problem (there is no JavaScript error being generated) I can’t solve the problem.
Thanks for your help Shaun (and apologies for the name type earlier).
Does this help: 1) What version of Mint/Default Pepper are you using? v2.07 - up to date according to haveamint.com/peppermill/pepper/4/default
2) Where is your Mint installed? https://mint.mydomain.com/mint
3) What url are you trying to watch? https://mydomain.com (and others, but let’s start here)
4) Does that url contain the Mint JavaScript include (you can only Watch pages that Mint is already tracking)? Yes. script src=”https://mint.mydomain.com/mint/?js” is included
5) Can you Watch any other url? No.
6) Can you Watch the url using the + link in any other tab of the Pages pane? Yes! That works just fine.
No worries about the typo.
The problem here is probably a combination of having Mint installed on a subdomain and using https. I seem to recall this combination being the source of some trouble in Firefox, have you tried Watching the page in Safari? Does that work?
Also, how old is your Watch favelet? If it’s from a version of the Default Pepper before 2.05 you may need to delete it and drag a fresh copy onto your browser from your Preferences.
Hi, I also can’t get page watching to work, i click on it but nothing gets watched. I’m using Mint 2.16, FF 3.0rc1. The mint domain is a confluence wiki server with urls like “wiki/a+sample+page”, but this gets stored in mint as “wiki/a sample page” (pluses converted to spaces). I wonder if this is messing up the watch command.
I can’t seem to reproduce this problem in Firefox Jason. I am able to watch pages with +’s in the url. Give me an example of a full url. Does the wiki/a+sample+page appear after a # by any chance?
I’ve got the same problem… Kinda.
I use mint on a wordpress installation, and watching some posts work while some don’t. It’s just so random.
Firefox 3, Safari 3.1, Opera (whatever the latest version is), Internet Explorer 7… All do the same thing.
I’ve upgraded Mint and my peppers last week, everything is up to date. Watching didn’t work before the upgrade, and doesn’t work after the upgrade as well.
Are you experiencing this problem with just the favelet/bookmarklets or with the +/x buttons in the Pages pane as well?
I’m not using a bookmarklet, just the +/x buttons.
It’s so random. It’s been working for a few pages I wanted to track, but now won’t track a new post I just made.
Is there anything unique about the url of the new post (especially extended characters)?
No, there’s not.
Actually, here are the some of the URL’s I’ve tried to watch and couldn’t:
But these DO work:
BTW, I also tried the bookmarklets, and they also don’t work.
(I just tried the ones with the *’s while posting this reply.)
Have you (or your host) recently moved your site (or even just the database) to a new server? If the database was moved from a 32-bit to 64-bit server the checksums Mint uses to retrieve Watched pages would have changed (this would only affect some checksums but not all). This particular cause of the problem would also result in oddities in the Repeat Referrers and Most Popular Pages panes (inconsistent or illogical reporting with the different time filters).
Check out this thread and compare your _checksum column types.
