bug? Undefined index: expire_time errors

[societyofrobots]

I'm using v1.1.11.

I've been seeing this fill up my error log lately:

8: Undefined index: expire_time
File: /.../.../Sources/Security.php
Line: 380

What does this error mean?

I'm constantly being hit by spam bots, and so its quite possible one of the installed mods has effectively blocked them, but with the security error as an unintended consequence. Supporting this theory is the pattern of IPs that cause the error.

The errors started on the 29th of January, the day I installed these mods:
2.   Auto Verification    1.0
3.   NiceTooltips    1.5
4.   Buddy List Page    1.0
8.   Ip to Country    1.2
9.   Redirect Banned Users    1.0

Installed previously, but maybe related:
10.   Anti-Bot Registration Puzzles    1.2.0.1
14.   reCAPTCHA for SMF    0.9.7

Hi, the error is minor and it's probably caused by one of those mods.

Can you attach Security.php to a post?

Moving this to 1.x Support as it's not really a SMF bug.

Security.php is attached.

As far as I can see, it has something to do with your Redirect Banned Users mod.
Try to disable that and look if the error stops.

Yes, it looks like it was that mod.

Try this file instead. I think I've cleared the error.

[societyofrobots]

thanks that fixed it!

Glad to hear that.

Marking this a solved.
