I forgot 1 line in Canvey's bug bugfix!

ZIP/MHK files updated, upload the new ubb_lib_calendar.cgi.

LK could you tell us what line you modified ?

thanks

Above:Add

Excellent, seems to be running smoothly now! I noticed that there are no more event serial numbers in the events file. Interesting... ;-)

I will start indepth testing, and we will probably launch our calendar tomorrow on our public site if all goes well...

Again, thanks and congrats LK and Jordo

Anyone else getting strange results trying to use the mhp file? It's throwing errors finding code in the cp_*.cgi files and when I run the hack it seems to be doing something really strange - code is added that the mhp doesn't call for and other code disappears... ???

Does the multihack tend to cache old files? I've deleted the output folder files and restarted the program, but it seems like ghost files appear when running the calendar.mhp cuz the differences are things I remember from the old 1.6 version. (it added:
require "$vars_config{VariablesPath}/vars_wordlets_calendar.cgi";

to the spot in cp.cgi that an earlier version would have and I don't see this in recent versions of the calendar mod.


I'll probably reboot and see if the memory or temp file folder gets cleared.

Calendar Hack 1.9 released, now it uses [32] and another way since I got some information about 6.2

Rehack: ubb_profile.cgi, ubb_lib_posting.cgi, ubb_registration.cgi, ubb_lib_files.cgi (to decrease 55 to 32), public_display_profile.pl.

Use upgrade19.cgi to upgrade from 1.6/1.7/1.8, and don't forget to BACKUP YOUR MEMBERS DIR FIRST!!

Installed on test system and working. Thank you for updating the MHK as well as it made my install painless

I get this when trying to update member files

Undefined subroutine &main::StandardHTML called at /www/reeftalk/test/cgi-bin/ubb_lib_files.cgi line 829.

this is from upgrade19.cgi

ZIP file updated with an updated upgrade19.cgi, now it checks if the file exists first and it also stops every 300 users to prevent cgi timeout error.

omegatron, try again with the new file.

Hi LK,

I ran the upgrade, and had the following result..

00000000 member not found.
Success! File removed for security purposes.

Is this correct?

Thanks as usual....

Canvey.

member not found = it's shown up in memberslist.cgi but doesn't exist, so I made a check so ubb_lib_files.cgi won't make &StandardHTMLs. In other words, it means 'the file doesn't exist, we didn't modify it, but everything else is fine', so if there REALLY isn't 00000000 (and I don't think there is such thing ), it's fine.

Why should I upgrade from 1.8 to 1.9?



This is all the information we get about a minor upgrade? I don't have time to upgrade my hacks if there is no reason to.

It makes the upgrading to 6.2 smoother, I think it's pretty important. You don't have to upgrade though, but I probably won't include upgrade*.cgi in the 6.2.0 ZIP so the users will have to manually fill in their birthdate.

I got the same thing? 000000 not found. Now I checked some member files and the birthdates are in the 32 lines in backwards format but they are still down in the 54th line as well. Should this be what happens? the custom status thing uses line 55

No, if I understand what you mean it shouldn't be like that and in my board it's not like that, but if it works, there is no problem

Can you send me a members file (password/etc censored, ofcourse) for example?

Also I forgot to include the new public_display_profile.pl part, please download the new ZIP/MHK and rehack it.

Lookin good so far LK. All birthday fields were switched from 55 to 32 and put in the correct format. They aren't showing up when you click on the calendar tho... something I am missing here?

They show up in the calendar only after the user edits his/her profile/registers, it doesn't check the profile fields.

[edit: that's odd, even when I update my profile it isn't shown up... works fine in my board

Try to rehack ubb_profile.cgi.]

Weird error I am noticing. I have done no new hacking to my board. Yesterday I installed the new calendar and ran the upgrade program. I posted error above but yesterday I noticed my newestmemberline is gone from the board even though it is enabled in control panel and now new members can not register. They get a confirmation and everything but my members directory does not have the new files.

I havent upgraded to 1.9 yet, but with 1.8 I noticed that even when you uncheck "Click here to display birthday" and then hit update profile, it stays checked regardless. Also, when you view someones profile that supposedly doenst want their birthday displayed, it still shows up!

Tried updating ubb_lib_files.cgi, ubb_lib_posting.cgi. ubb_profile.cgi and ubb_registration.cgi, changed 55 to 32, then ran upgrade19.cgi. Below is what I got:


00000000 member not found.
Content-type: text/html
Software error:
Undefined subroutine &main::StandardHTML called at /home/wewfhfc/public_html/cgi-bin/roleplay/ubb_lib.cgi line 415.
For help, please send mail to the webmaster (webmaster@wewfhf.com), giving this error message and the time and date of the error.

any ideas LK ???

FYI: this is lines 390-425 of ubb_lib.cgi

foreach (sort keys %in) {
$hackstring .= "$_ t $in{$_}n";
}

$hackstring .= "nnTracer: $calledn";

$hackstring .= "-=- " x 20;

&AppendFileAsString("$vars_config{NonCGIPath}/hacklog.cgi", $hackstring);

&StandardHTML(join("", @message)); (line 415)

}

sub CheckBadChars { # check for | , ;, .. or >< character hack attempts
my $checkthis = shift;
if ($checkthis =~ /&#0124;&#0124;;|<|>|..|*/) { #

}
return 1;
} # end SR


any ideas LK ???
