Messed up

[crustybum]

I have messed up somewhere whilst moving my forum, i will try to explain the errors.
Firstly i have a forum functioning ok apart from the fact that no new members can register, they get

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare spammercheck() (previously declared in /home/content/c/r/u/****/html/theforum/Sources/Register.php:912) in /home/content/c/r/u/****/html/theforum/Sources/Register.php on line 990

Also all the mods seem to be working....except that if i go in to the browse mod section they are all there...but it says they are not installed? ....and if i look in the installed packages section, there are not mods installed?

Anyone help? (apologies if this post is in wrong section)

[Bigguy]

It looks as if there is a line of code in there somewhere twice. Look in Register.php on both those line numbers and see if there is a problem. Or post the file here and I can take a look.

Cheers, not that good with coding..but learning slowly.

Not twice... Thrice...

Code Select Expand

//Check Forum Spam if enabled
if (!empty($modSettings['sfs_enabled'])) {
if (SpammerCheck()) {
loadLanguage('SFS');
fatal_error(sprintf($txt['sfs_spam_detected'],$_POST['user'],$_POST['email'],$user_info['ip']), true);
}
}


That section's there three times.

My bet's that you installed some anti-spam mod three times.



Somehow.

Let's hope you backed-up, before installing it...

[crustybum]

ok, i have just removed them, and still the same?

[kat]

I'd assume that every file that was edited, by that mod, has the same problem...

No backup to restore?

[crustybum]

No  backup

[Kindred]

Then you are going to have to MANUALLY edit files to remove the triplicated code...   and I guarantee that the error which is showing is not the only spot where the code was dupli/triplicated

[crustybum]

Which files?

[kat]

This no use?

Thing is, i reckon its been like it for a while, the person looking after that side is no longer with us, so i dont really know how far back to go, and just looked...theres hundreds..

[Illori]

then maybe http://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/How_to_upload_a_fresh_set_of_files would be your best option, then to reinstall your mods.

[crustybum]

Sounds like a plan, will give it a go, ...

[crustybum]

er...i have just gone to my database and found there are some "backups" there, is it safe to try one?

[kat]

It's not the database that's affected, mate.

When you say ".theres hundreds..", what do you mean? There should only be three named after the mod. You want the earliest one.

[Kindred]

k@... unless the triple mod was not the last mod he installed... then your option will not work

[crustybum]

OK tried to overrite everything and got this
Fatal error: Call to undefined function getUsersOnlineTodayStats() in /home/content/c/r/u/crusty1/html/theforum/Sources/BoardIndex.php on line 70

[Bigguy]

Now that you have overwrote everything, all mods you have installed are probably going to error. Can you get to the admin panel. Do you know what mods you had installed.

[crustybum]

Spent the day on this...think i may be getting somewhere..(chuffed) 

I can now get to everything, i have uninstalled all mods......but get this at bottom of forum now.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function template_ad_position() in /home/content/c/r/u/crusty1/html/theforum/Sources/Load.php(2151) : eval()'d code on line 310

I reckon its related to simple ads or ad management, but dont know how to remove it? as its not showing in packages

[Kindred]

you are using a custom theme, correct?   When you uploaded the clean files, you neglected to upload a clean set of files for your theme as well
