Messages not showing until quit+reopen app #2163

@brynwhyman Do you see any errors in the desktop app logs? |
Hey @amyblais, this happened to me in the past two days. There has not been any errors (or anything for that matter) logged in |
Just received another report from a staff member that this is happening on their Linux machine too. So I've added that to the description if that's helpful... |
Ah, sorry, I'd also add that the same issue appeared to have also occurred where someone was added to a new channel and was tagged. In this case, the new channel did not show for the user until an app restart. |
Tagging @devinbinnie here if he has additional thoughts for debugging this. |
@brynwhyman On Mac, which distribution are you using? If you're using MAS, the logs will be in |
Thanks @devinbinnie, there seems to be some more relevant log messages there. The logging starts after a force quit:
|
Hello, do you have any further troubling shooting suggestion here? This is still happening to us! |
Sorry, must have lost track of this one. Unfortunately nothing in the logs seems to indicate an issue. In your case, I would also recommended opening up the Developer Tools (View > Developer Tools for Current Server) and seeing if there are any error messages reported when a notification is received. Thanks for your patience :) |
I am also still having the issue on OS X Monterey 12.5 with Mattermost 5.1.1 as reported by the initial reporter. |
This is still happening to us. I'm really surprised this isn't reported more often. I can confirm I'm on the latest version and this is still happening. I'm not sure there's any other action I can take at this stage. Just noting another theory about reproduction steps too... While it won't happen every time in these cases, it appears that when it does happen, it was a 'new conversation', so something like:
|
I can also confirm this happens - particularly on the "new conversation" cases mentioned above. When being added to an existing or new group, I don't see messages until a refresh or for a couple hours. Mattermost 5.2.2 on OS X Monterey 12.16.3 |
Okay, so I'm wondering if this is being caused by the server itself. Has anyone tried to see if this happens for them in the browser as well? Or is the case that you only don't get notifications but when the app is open you do get mentions? |
Apologies I'm not following the bug reporting procedure; Mattermost Version: 5.2.2.26057 |
same issue here, since a few updates (do not know which one though) my client: linux-flatpak Version 5.3.1 commit: 2c3d80f mattermost server: 7.10.0 never experienced that issue with the mobile app, only desktop app so far (win + linux) |
I have managed to find a way to reproduce this systematically. It is caused by a network change between client and server. It applies to both desktop and web version.
|
Based on this, it sounds like there's a disconnect in the websocket connection that isn't being reconnected quickly enough, or at all. @setpill If you can still reproduce this consistently, can you post a snapshot of your logs from the Developer Tools for Current Server (or the Chrome Dev Tools if it's webapp)? I'd like to see what the websocket behaviour is. |
@devinbinnie What exactly do you want to see? Logs from the "console" tab in chromium dev tools? From the refreshed or non-refreshed client? Assuming "console" tab in non-refreshed client - there's nothing new there after changing the connection. |
Yes the "console" tab. Can you show me both? I'm guessing one websocket is reconnecting and the other isn't. |
I'm not sure what there is to show... There's nothing new happening in the console tab after changing my connection. If I refresh, it would simply create a new websocket connection, no? |
As in, I'm saying both console tab logs would look exactly the same... One simply has been done before the network change one after. |
Interesting. No, I do not get a |
I can confirm that I can reproduce this (browser client) on community.mattermost.com with the following steps:
I also never see any |
Hi MM team, just checking if more information is still required on this issue? Even with the latest 5.4.0 release, this is still happening. I understand this is a difficult one to reproduce, but having messages intermittently not appear in a messaging app is a critical issue IMO. Thanks for your help so far. Hopefully, we can get to the bottom of this. |
@brynwhyman Unfortunately we don't really have much to go on. I'm guessing this is more than likely an issue with some specific servers, but as said it's very difficult to reproduce which makes it hard for us to figure out what's happening. We try to monitor issues around message reliability as closely as we can, so rest assured when we see issues we are looking at them. Apologies for the inconvenience. |
Hi all, I'm experiencing this issue reliably at work. New group DMs only appear in the Mac app after restarting it, whereas they appear in the iOS app right away. I only restart the app on my Mac maybe once a week at most, so I only see those group DMs when it's too late to act. Maybe this helps to narrow down the issue. |
Sorry to come back to this...
@devinbinnie would it be helpful if we shared server information too? What would you be interested in? |
We are experiencing this issue frequently as well:
On various desktop clients. Mobile seems to be more reliable? We definitely see this issue when our connection is being interrupted (VPN or switching WiFi), but we also see this on non-moving workstations. |
I can confirm the issue as well.
Linux desktop client, happens when connection is interrupted, e.g. VPN, or switching WiFi, or device comes out of standby. |
@devinbinnie should we open a Jira ticket for this? Seems to be ongoing |
I confirm (by marking "x" in the [ ] below: [x]):
Summary
Almost every 1-2 days, I and other users in my organisation do not receive sent direct messages (maybe tags in channels too). Quitting the desktop application and re-opening it will then show unread messages that were previously not visible.

Other notes
Of course I'm not sure how this is happening but to state the obvious, it's incredibly frustrating!
