Speedgrader Comments Not Showing, Download Only? Error Updating Assignment

[Jul_Cro]

Today, an instructor is grading his assignment submissions in Speedgrader. When he submits a comment this error occurs: "An error occurred updating this assignment"

So, you'll notice that you cannot see the comment anymore. In order for the instructor to see the comment he has to Download Submission Comments or see the gradebook. It looks fine from the student view.... 

Is this a part of the new release? 

Thanks for your help!

While it's not an answer for your question, if it makes you feel any better, I just had an instructor call me with this exact problem not 15 minutes ago, disappearing comments and all. We found when we checked student view that, sure enough, students have all of the comments she tried to add. I'm thinking it might be time to submit a Canvas ticket...

It was fine earlier in the morning and then later in the early afternoon it started happening. I found if I refreshed Speedgrader the comments would show up in teacher view. Definitely time to put in a ticket.

IT IS FIXED TODAY! Thanks!

No, it's not, i've had this problem since you reported, and it's still a pain to write and read comments ¿how can I put a ticket?

It is not fixed.  I have had this issue for a few weeks.  I think when the comment fails to load and the instructor resubmits the comment, it won't show later.  That's just my observation, though.

I had this issue. I discovered that I had a student linked in the group that had dropped the class. Once I removed to inactive student, it worked.

We've had a similar issue. In our case the teacher created a Groupset without any groups, then assigned the Groupset to an assignment and available to all. When the teacher made the comment it disappeared. However, when downloading the assignment comments the comment was visible in the PDF. Even adding the student to a group the comment was still not visible. We've been able to replicate the problem. No solution to this.

Having the same problem; it's been working fine up until now. I guess this bug has been a thing for 5 years now?

I can confirm that this is still occurring and needs to be addressed and investigated further.

This is STILL happening today, February 13, 2024.

I am also having the same issue. For me, it started this week. I re-entered the same comment a few times for students thinking it just didn't save, but each time I returned to the assignment submission in SpeedGrader the comments were not there. However, like everyone else, when I click "download submission comments" the comments (and repeated ones) are there. There is no way for me to go back and edit these due to this issue. Hopefully, we'll get some insight from Canvas soon.
