Bump.

 

This happens to me whenever I add a new friend.

Henri Beauchamp: Any news about https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/BUG-232037 (bogus empty online friends on login) ?

.../...
Rider Linden: @Henri I have not done any work on that bug yet.

Feel free to nag LL harder about it, since this bug is now over one year old ! 😲

@Henri Beauchamp

Now my understanding of these (multiple) friends online bugs was that the one affecting the initial failure of the system to send a list of online friends had been at least partially fixed (at least it appears normal in the current Firestorm and I would assume that the same is true for the Linden viewer though I have not had cause to use it recently)

The bug where accepting a new friendship offer or having an offer you make accepted promptly causes the system to register all your existing friends online to show as offline until you relog appears unchanged.  Perhaps Rider was indicating that nothing was being done about THAT?

With that bug LL really DO need a digital extraction tool.

No, this bug still plagues some (many, all, depending on traffic, perhaps ?) simulators (come see in my home sim, Hunburgh, if you want), and does not depend the least on what viewer you are using. It appears about two days after the last sim restart (and as a result my region gets restarted twice or thrice a week).

I haven't noticed this until resent, and I was wondering why people were saying in group that I was offline and can't help them when I was online the whole day and appeared afk to a handful of people, and then noticed some I could not see until they relogged. 

At least I was able to change my name back as 3 weeks ago my name changed to default Resident name and when i sent to change it still stayed that way.

Oh I had that exact scenario happen last night while on the current FS. I had logged into S/L to accept a friend invitation from an Opensim friend and after I did, 10 other friends that were online suddenly all logged off. Had me going wtf and so checked the Friends online list on the website and saw they were all still online. I got sidetracked with the new friend but when I looked 30 minutes later I noted that the ones who had gone offline were all back showing as online in the viewer without a relog.

im having this problem for some weeks already. When i log in, its says "no friends online", although i know there is people online. I have cleared cache, cleared inventory cache, and nothing. I dont know what to do anymore! Firestorm-Releasex64 6.6.8.68380 - StelaSea (gyazo.com)

Try going back a version, I have experienced enough significant bugs (mostly rendering but this online status bug seems quite prevalent too) in 6.6.8.68380 to abandon it and go back to 6.6.3.67470
