I removed one mod(simple ads), but after removing that i ended with some serious errors so i backed up files from backup package and it worked, but now when i visit my website its loading till last board, but not showing forum stats at all, insted there i got this error ''invalid function call cannot load ad template" but at footer i can see SMF 2.0 RC3, xhtml,etc.
in admin panel this is error at bottom
"invalid function call load.php, error  :  line 273

Please help me to fix this error...

Thanks in advance

[kat]

If you attach said file, load.php, we can take a look at it. 

[Sad_Angel]

Thanks K@ for early reply, currently the forum is down due to maintenance of the server:D

load.php from source, where shall i upload/display it..?

[kat]

Just attach it to your next post.

You can probably get it, using FTP, even if the server is under maintenance. You might not, though.

[Sad_Angel]

here is that load.php file.
Sorry for late reply, please help to fix this
Thanks in advance

[xenovanis]

There's nothing wrong with line 273. Can you access your forums errorlog and post back the complete errormessage?

[CapadY]

An error in load.php is nearly almost caused bij an code problem in one of the template files.
The problem is to find out which template file it is.

[kat]

Can we have a URL for your forum, assuming it's open for guest views?

[Sad_Angel]

Hi!! Everyone...
Please help, here i somehow managed to bring my forum online,
Forum http://cyber-wars.tk (currently on this domain)
I am getting this error at bottom of my forum where forum stats are displayed,
"Fatal error: Call to undefined function template_ad_position() in /home/satish36/public_html/Sources/Load.php(2127) : eval()'d code on line 283"

I  tried to restore using backup files from packages but it didn't helped..
I tried repairing the database, this is the error which i am getting..

satish36_smf.smf_admin_info_files                  OK

note     : The storage engine for the table doesn't support repair
satish36_smf.smf_ads_settings

Please help, how to bring my  forum back.

Thanks in Advance

[Sad_Angel]

Sorry, but i am unable to remove those ads, crap..

[xenovanis]

How did you try to repair the database? Through cPanel or phpMyAdmin?

My best guess is to parse the mod (go to the modsection where you downloaded this mod, in the right upper corner select your version of SMF and click "Parse") and see if there's any leftover code from the mod in any of your forum files.

[Sad_Angel]

I tried to repair it in cPanel....

all topics are visible but someone enters there is nothing except that error.
Please just visit and view topics in 1st board..

There is no way to fix this.?

[xenovanis]

Try using the repair option in phpMyAdmin. You should be able to access phpMyAdmin from cPanel.

What is phpMyAdmin?

[Sad_Angel]

Hi! I tried every heck, but its not fixing.
Please please help me to fix this error. When i enter topics to read thread it shoes this error..

Fatal error: Call to undefined function template_ad_position() in /home/satish36/public_html/Sources/Load.php(2127) : eval()'d code on line 640

Now, my all post, topics  are just lost.

I tried repairing tables in phpmyadmin but no effect at all, I don't know what to do next.

Please help...

Thanks

Best Regards
Satish

I think you'll find that that eval message is masking the real error.

If you can get into admin, try installing this mod:

http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=2054

Then, the error should change to something more helpful, with any luck and a following wind.

[Sad_Angel]

Thanks K@ for reply, its not showing support to RC3(There will be no 2.0 RC3 version, because this feature is default feature in SMF 2.0 RC3), should i install it anyway?

[xenovanis]

Admin -> Server Settings -> General ->  Disable evaluation of templates

New things to learn every day 

[gbsothere]

I see you're using a custom theme.  Is the error there when you switch to default?

[kat]

Doh!

Yeah. Sorry, I hadn't realised that, either.

[xenovanis]

I see you're using a custom theme.  Is the error there when you switch to default?

Yes, unfortunately.
http://cyber-wars.tk/index.php?theme=1&topic=5.msg27#new

[Sad_Angel]

yes the error still persists even though i have just switched to default theme just now.
Please see,

Thanks for reply

[gbsothere]

Yes, unfortunately.
http://cyber-wars.tk/index.php?theme=1&topic=5.msg27#new

Phooey.  There went that brilliant theory.   

[kat]

If it's in Sources, chances are it'll affect all themes.

[xenovanis]

Yes, unfortunately.
http://cyber-wars.tk/index.php?theme=1&topic=5.msg27#new

Phooey.  There went that brilliant theory.   

Of course, that was the first thing I thought of 

If it's in Sources, chances are it'll affect all themes.

Really, some of the code has to be somewhere, either in a default templatefile or a Sourcefile.

All files affected by this mod should be checked manually for any leftover code.

[Sad_Angel]

I this the end of my forum...?

[xenovanis]

Are you kidding? 

The most easy way would be to upload all files from the large upgradepackage again. This should kill the mod, however it'll uninstall any other mods as well.

Another way would be to parse the mod and check all mentioned files, to see if there's any leftover code from this mod. Where did you download it?

[Sad_Angel]

Here are the mods that i've installed,

1      NoFollow All Links     1.2.1     
2.    Karma Buttons    1.1    
3.    Karma based groups    1.0

20.    Ad Managment

Another mod which results in this was Ads based mod only, which i've uninstalled 15days back

[xenovanis]

Okay, try this.

Here are the manual parsinstructions for this mod.
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?action=parse;mod=2557;attach=144396;smf_version=2.0_RC3

For the default theme, and all other themes you have installed, see if they contain a file named Boardindex.template.php.

In that file search for this code:

Code Select Expand


echo '<br class="clear" />';
template_ad_position('above_info_center');

template_info_center();


It it is there, replace that part with

Code Select Expand


template_info_center();


Next, check the file Display.template.php. Search for this code:

Code Select Expand


$message['id'] == $context['first_message'] ? template_ad_position('inside_first_post') : '', $message['body'], '</div>


If found, replace it with

Code Select Expand


$message['body'], '</div>


And search for

Code Select Expand


if (!isset($msg_counter))
$msg_counter = 0;
if (++$msg_counter == 2)
template_ad_position('after_first_post');

$ignoring = false;


replace that with

Code Select Expand


$ignoring = false;


and finally search for

Code Select Expand


<a id="lastPost"></a>';

template_ad_position('after_last_post');


replace that with

Code Select Expand


<a id="lastPost"></a>';


How do I modify files?

[Sad_Angel]

should i edit it online or here on local PC, can i use dreamweaver ?

[xenovanis]

Backup your files if you want to edit them online.

I prefer editting on a local machine, not using Dreamweaver since it has a nasty habit messing up php files and changing links.

Install Notepad++ instead to edit the files, it's free and easy to use 

Don't forget to backup your files!

[Sad_Angel]

OK i'll try them on that theme and will reply about results.

Thanks for support

[Sad_Angel]

Try attaching those two files to your next post, so that they can be checked...

[gbsothere]

*resolved*

Botched mod installations and templates.

Well done, that man!

[gbsothere]

Well done, that man!

I have to do these things to keep alert in my old age.  It's either this or take up knitting. 

[Sad_Angel]

Issue resolved,  gbsothere  sorted it out, now everything is normal.
