Error "You need to fill in a username." (Semi-time-critical)

[kat]

That's a plan.

I tried the theme=1 thing and it stayed on the custom one, oddly enough.

[xenovanis]

Because "Allow members to select their own themes" option is unchecked, you won't be able to select any theme other than the selected theme. Running the query should reset that option.

[cralor]

I have completed both steps.

...The issue still remains

This is one of the steps that I accomplished.

1) I submitted query
2) I change the theme
3) I tried logging in - same error

[xenovanis]

Please run this query in phpMyAdmin and post back the results:

Code Select Expand


SELECT *
FROM `smf_log_errors`
ORDER BY `smf_log_errors`.`log_time` DESC
LIMIT 0 , 30


It should give us the latest entries in your errorlog, we might me able to determine what file is causing this. Leave out the ip addresses please.

I'm sorry, it's time to get some sleep for me now. I'll be back tomorrow.

TPortal.php!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU LITTLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It keeps referring to line 2766. this is part of the function:

Code Select Expand


function TP_blockgrid($block, $theme, $pos, $side, $last=false, $gridtype, $empty=false)
{
global $context , $scripturl, $settings, $language , $txt;

// first, set the table, equal in all grids
if($pos==0)
echo '<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%">';

if(isset($context['TPortal']['grid'][$gridtype][$pos]['doubleheight']))
$dh=true;
else
$dh=false;

// render if its not empty
if(!$empty)
echo $context['TPortal']['grid'][$gridtype][$pos]['before'] , call_user_func($context['TPortal']['hooks']['tp_block'],$block,$theme, $side,$dh) , $context['TPortal']['grid'][$gridtype][$pos]['after'];
else
echo $context['TPortal']['grid'][$gridtype][$pos]['before'] . '&nbsp;' . $context['TPortal']['grid'][$gridtype][$pos]['after'];

// last..if its the last block,close the table
if($last)
echo '</table>';

return $code; // this is line 2766
}


What could be the problem here?

[cralor]

Bump

[kat]

Just a hunch, this. So, keep a copy of the original file, just in case.

This line:

Code Select Expand

echo $context['TPortal']['grid'][$gridtype][$pos]['before'] . ' ' . $context['TPortal']['grid'][$gridtype][$pos]['after'];

Try removing the "&nbsp", or even the "' ' . "

[cralor]

Unfortunately, neither change proved to be successful.

Thanks.

I'm sorry for my absence. I had a footballparty to attend to yesterday 

I've tried searching for this error, but it seems you're unique in this.  I'm still not sure this is causing this, however you should report this error in the support topic for this mod.

For a quick solution, I'd recommend uploading all files from the installationpackage for 2.0 RC3, except install.php, Settings.php and Settings_bak.php, overwriting the excisting files. This will get rid of your installed mods and most likely let your forum function again.
Note that this will only affect your files and not the database, so your members and posts will be safe.

However, if you want to get to the bottom of this, which could be painfull and timeconsuming (probably more than refreshing the files and reinstalling the mods), could you start by filtering any login errors by running this query in phpMyAdmin?

Code Select Expand


SELECT *
FROM `smf_log_errors`
WHERE `url` LIKE '%login%'
ORDER BY `smf_log_errors`.`log_time` DESC
LIMIT 0 , 60


And please post back the results

I bet!

I've tipped The Netherlands, right from the start! 

[cralor]

I could start from scratch... but I don't want to give up!! I want to fix this issue so if others get the same thing.

Anyway, query results: http://delibargaming.com/login.htm

Will post on Aeva's boards. Thanks.

[xenovanis]

The last error regarding login is from July 3th. It didn't even record those failed attempts as errors

I'm really sorry I can't help more. Try posting in Avea's board or else in Tinyportals support topic, maybe people have an idea.

In addition, overwriting the files is nearly the same procedure as upgrading. What eventually you'll still need to do. It's hardly starting from scratch, after all no database data is lost.

It's great. It's 32 years ago the team came this far 

[cralor]

Alright. Well I overwrote every file, but Settings.php, Settings_bak.php, and install.php.

Guess what.... still broken.

Take a look now: http://delibargaming.com/

[kat]

Just had a look.

As a guest, everything looks fine.

I doubt this affects guests, though, does it?

Just try logging in with any Username and Password. No matter what, it will say "You need to fill in a username." I thought this would have fixed after overwriting with fresh new files. Seems like it has not.

Thanks.

[kat]

Well, it's bound to do that, if I haven't registered.

Do you have a username/password we can use?

[cralor]

No it isn't suppose to do that. It would say something like "Wrong Username or Password". not "Please enter a username"... (no matter what you enter, always "Please fill in a username" comes up)

Also... I am trying mine... not working. I don't have a test account. If I did, I can't see the members list so I wouldn't know what it was.

[kat]

Yeah, 'course.

Let me just go back over this topic and see if I can think of anything else.

This may have already been asked. But, assuming that everything worked, before, can you think of anything that was done, just prior to this all going "Phut!"?
