#Chat GPT Plus unusable - constant "Conversation not found" message after one message

any OpenAi support staff? @woeful bear
What is your Chat History setting set to? (Settings -> Data controls -> Chat history)
and do you know when this started happening for you?
I get this error starting today. A workaround I found is to set your browser to mobile when on desktop (Chrome dev tools) . On mobile if you view desktop you get this error so it must be something different with the desktop web version.
@small trout this started yesterday morning, chat history is off but that shouldnt stop a continuous un-interrupted chat.
Same thing started happening 2-3 days back with my ChatGPT Plus account. After one message to GPT4, i get this error: "Conversation key not found. Try starting a new conversation.". My Chat History is Off. This problem does not happen with the ChatGPT android mobile app
Yes this only happens with chat history off
Been having the same thing last couple of days making ChatGPT completely unusable for me if I can't get what I need in a single message/question (which seems to be nearly impossible lately with the much lower quality GPT has been providing).
Chatgpt for me is literally unusable. cannot generate replies, DALL-E images save as HTML and even if i do get a reply it is so far off topic its hilarious 😭 😅
Definitely seems like a bug with chat history off 😦 we'll work on fixing it but in the meantime sounds like mobile apps and/or turning on chat history are workarounds
window.fetch = new Proxy(window.fetch, {
apply: (target, _, [resource, init = {}]) => {
if (resource === 'https://chat.openai.com/backend-api/conversation') {
return target(resource, {
...init,
headers: {
...init.headers,
'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU OS 17_3 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/17.2 Mobile/14E304 Safari/605.1.15'
}
});
} else {
return target(resource, init);
}
}
});```
For people facing this issue, I made a script to change the user agent of the api requests to mobile as this issue doesn't seem to affect mobile, can either run this using tamper monkey, in the console or bookmarklet to temporary solve this issue until there's a proper fix
I really hope the error message "Conversation key not found. Try starting a new conversation." can be fixed quickly.....
Yess Please fix the issue guys
I too am getting the Conversation key not found. Try starting a new conversation. with Chat History turned off
Firefox desktop
my workaround is user-agent switcher extension and Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 13; Pixel 7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/116.0.0.0 Mobile Safari/537.36 or something like that
9 out of 10 responses I get are not being saved
"There was an error generating a message" is what I get when I revisits the conversation
this is completely unusable and a waste of energy for me to regenerate answers I already got
doesn't happen on my iOS app only on the web app (Firefox Developer Edition)
Getting this too - it seems the latest release broke ChatGPT for users without chat history.
I just checked and am no longer getting this error message. Fingers crossed though 🫰
What about other folks? Still running into this problem as of now?
I am still getting this error as of this morning
"Conversation key not found. Try starting a new conversation."
Mine has since been fixed: Conversation key not found. Try starting a new conversation. is no longer occurring.
Desktop - Firefox - Chat history off
i've had this since december, if its not fixed soon i will demand a refund for feb, jan, and dec, and switch to another AI chat.
We have people investigating this right now. Possible that there are multiple causes for the same error but we're working on it!
Hi everyone, can anyone help me fix the "failed to load chat history" bug?
Despite having tried all the recommended solutions, the chat history has not been restored for more than 10 days.
I ask for help thanks.
I changed browser, deactivated VPN, deleted browsing data, disabled extensions but nothing
I've been in the same situation since January
I don't think I've seen that specific problem reported lately, but if you're willing to send me a HAR file that captures all the network requests that happen when you load chatgpt I can look into it. That could be a more straightforward bug than the one in this thread.
Actually I remember a bug a while back that sounds similar. Can you DM me?
I experienced the issue with conversation key not found for a while up until earlier today. After trying again now, the issue appears resolved.
