Simple Machines is happy to release the latest update to SMF. This is only a small release, which addresses an issue with the parsing of some BBC, and fixes a few minor bugs found since 1.0.3. While this is only a small release we strongly suggest that you upgrade to this version, because it will improve the security of your forum.
What's Changed:
- fixed an issue with parsing embedded BBC tags
- added "Update Available" information to the admin center, to notify admins of future updates
- fixed a couple of minor bugs
As always, we would appreciate if you give us constructive feedback about this release, as well as bug reports.
If you are upgrading from 1.0.3, the easiest way to update is through the package manager. If not, you only need to use the "update" package as it includes only the changed files since 1.0's release. However, if you have any mods installed it would be better to use the "upgrade" package because it contains all the files for an SMF installation. Remember that you can use the "upgrade" package to come from any previous version of SMF, as well as from YaBB SE 1.5.1 or higher.

Thanks,
Simple Machines
Upgraded, two seconds it took.
I just installed the upgrade & immediately everyone's signatures turned into just the tagged urls
[img]url is here[/img]
nice.. checking out
I'll have my related sites (not mine thats on Beta 2 ;) ) upgraded ASAP.
Oh, wow! Awesome! I'm updating now :).
-Dan The Man
just done... ;D
Does anyone have any ideas how I can fix this problem with sigs on my site?
The upgrade worked without a hitch via the Package Manager. (I'm an admin on someones forum who is using the public release)
Just got done upgrading one of my forums. Was a complete success :).

Do I have to take a backup of the site before the uppgrade? What are the requirements for the uppgrade will work and not cause any problem?
My forum has grown and I do NOT want to lose the whole.

I would suggest backing up if you got an itch. Or if you had to go to the bathroom for a moment. Backing up is not something we, or at least I, will ever say you should not do :P.
No requirements. If SMF 1.0.3 works, and you weren't using the "Faster Parsecode" mod, it should be fine. With that mod, you'll have problems updating.
-[Unknown]
my ([img]/img] )don't show up .. how can i fix that?? check my main site www.mixspot.com roll lil bit down
Most of the time, not alot will happen when you upgrade, but you never know when something can go wrong, its better to back-up as you can never predict what will happen.

ANYONE USING "FASTER PARSECODE":You must use the "upgrade" package on the downloads page to update, or uninstall the package and wait for the Faster Parsecode mod to be updated.
-[Unknown]
i am using it.. i am gonna wait then..
I wish I had waited
Images in posts also show up just as text
just FYI... this update changes on of the lines that was targetted with the SPAM-ME-NOT mod (in Subs.php)
Everything else gets changed properly, (even in that file) but the one line (since it is no longer the text that is being searched for) causes a Failure message.
Just to let other people know, the Static Page Mod DOES NOT work with SMF 1.0.4.
-Dan The Man
I haven't got any mods installed, 1.04 works like a charm :)
i have the same problem with those tags... i havent run the faster parsecode mod before.. i never had this problem before... its like the editor is disabled..
LINK (http://www.champi.nl)
didnt disable things in the adminpanel..
I have all this mods in my forum installed. What should i do, wait or update? Do i have a mod that will corrupt my forum if i make the update? Pls help

FasterParseCode will either require an UNINSTALLATION or require you to overwrite the files with the upgrade ZIP...
The mod will not install correctly with Faster Parse Code installed... (and this would mean all the mods that also require the faster parse code need to be removed as well.)
(I see at least 4 of them in your list... if not more)
Here is what i get when i try to make the update:
nstalling this package will perform the following actions:

Upgraded from 1.0.3 through the Package Manager. So far so good.
Ok, uninstalled the parse code mod and all of the 3 others that had to do with it. The update was succesfull.
after a refresh i see that the link for the DOWNLOADS is showing but the button not. I am using the default theme. I have istalled the Simple download mode. When i try to unistall it, it says:
2: unlink(Downloads/.htaccess): No such file or directory
File: /home/albanian/public_html/smf/Sources/Subs-Package.php
Line: 829
What should i do that the Download link shows the button and not the text as link?

This means your server doesn't have allow_url_fopen enabled. 1.1 will fix this, but until then, download this file:
http://mods.simplemachines.org/downloads/smf_1-0-4_package.tar.gz
Upload it to your Packages directory, and install.

know im getting
An Error Has Occurred!
The package manager currently allows only these file types: zip, tar.gz
but isnt it a tar.gz? What could be the problem?
Are you sure you didn't save it as "smf_1-0-4_package.tar[0].gz" or something?
-[Unknown]
I saved it as smf-1-0-4_package.tar
It wont let me save as a tar.gz....is that the problem?
It has to be .tar.gz. What browser are you using? Why won't it let you?
-[Unknown]
im useing IE on windows xp. I tried the dropdown, only tar. I even added the extension .gz. No good. Oh well. Ill get one of the other guys to do it.
Hey i have a question about this update... as you can see here www.ausfx.com/forum i have made a few modding changes with thoes mods in the packages section, if i update to version 1.0.4 will this wreck the mods i have put on? Or the theme etc?
Thanks
I have a heavily modified site (but a clean install of 1.1 beta 2)
what files have changed since then, and which ones are most critical for the BBCode injection problem?
Thx
erockza,
Try to install the mod through your package manager. As long as the changes you have made are not to the few lines of code changed by the update everything should be dandy.
digit,
Have you tried a package manager install yet? The main changes are in Subs.php. If you have to do it manually look through the mod file for Subs.php changes and make them - but the package should most likely install fine.
Two forums, two updates, two ok ;), please change the newsa area. this says: If you're not yet using the latest version, SMF 1.0.3, please upgrade as soon as possible. :P
THANKS FOR THE UPDATE!
Updated through the Package Manager in a matter of seconds.
Thanks for the update. :)

Yes, I ran into some permissions problems - do all directories need to be writable?
I was able to restore my board to before I attempted the upgrade
would like to verify exactly what I need to get rid of before attempting the upgrade again.
well, I just ran SMF 1.1 Beta 2 Fix 1.0 (saw it in the Package manager) and that worked fine...
All the tests for that ran fine, now when I click on You can install this patch (click here to install) the tests fail.
Does that install the patch or do I still need to do that?

Uninstall the Faster Parsecode mod until it's made compatible with SMF 1.0.4.
-Dan The Man
Ok. I installed 1.0.4. Now none of the replies show up in any of my topics!!! :'(
At the bottom of what would be the original message it has an error
"Fatal error: Call to undefined function: barexp() in /home/jackass/public_html/forum/Sources/Load.php(1040) : eval()'d code on line 382"
I do not have the Faster Parsecode mod installed.
How did you upgrade?
Sounds like you had the 'Bar of Experience' mod installed, and uninstalled it in part or full.

I did have the Bar of Experience installed....is that another one that is bad? I tried to uninstall it after the upgrade, but it didn't help.
I upgraded like I always do. Downloaded the 'smf_1-0-4_update.zip', uploaded the unpacked files to my webserver, and ran upgrade.php
As far as losing all the images [img] I never had faster parsecode so something else is going on, The update seemed to go OK but we have no images anymore and there has not been a real answer here for the problem.
We do have spam-me-not and I didn't understand the post about that. Does it mean it's not working now?
Spam-me-not is a mod and while I like it I can live without it, but the loss of images is a BIG problem for these forums.
Here's what's on it:
1. Visual Warning / Post Moderation 1.21
2. Banner Manager 3.4
3. Location Mod 1.1.1
4. Location Mod - Additional Maps 1.1.1
5. OnLine Users Today 1.2
6. SMF 1.0.3 Update Package
7. Spam-me-not 1.0.1
8. Member Specific Permissions 1.31
9. SMF 1.0.4 Update Package 1.0.4
10. SMF 1.0.4 Update Package 1.0.4
11. SMF 1.0.4 Update Package 1.0.4
Why I got 3 copies of the update to .4 I have no idea. Can I delete the others?
The big thing is the images, our forum is loaded with them and it's the main thing the users love about the boards.
How about a list of Mods that are ok or not ok for the Update.
I have updated for the last year and never had any issues with mods ( and I Like Mods )
This upgrade makes me uneasy.

That way removes *all* of your installled mods. You'll need to fix your theme files now, or reinstall the mod.
DDT, try uninstalling it, uninstalling Spam-me-not, reinstalling it, and then trying to install Spam-me-not again.
Mods that are not okay:
Faster Parsecode
Spam-me-not
Any mod that adds custom bbc (possibly okay, possibly not.)
Mods that are okay:
Everything else.

I m upgrading form 1.03 hope it will work fine... :D
I got it fixed!!
Good thing I'm a digital packrat lol.
I fixed it by downgrading to 1.0.3
I was able to do this because I moved my forums from my home webserver to a hosted webserver a few weeks ago. Well I never deleted the old forum on my web server.
I just uploaded everything from my home webserver overwritting the files on my hosted server. Ran 'repair_settings.php' and it works like a charm!
I'll try upgrading to 1.0.4 again after uninstalling all my mods.
Big Problem
No "Uninstaller" for Spam-me-not so all I could do is delete all the files, restore a 1.03 from backup, then try the upgrade again. Same results. I have no idea how to get rid of Spam-Me-Not, it had a file labeled uninstaller but when tried through unuinstall packages it gave message no uninstaller for this mod...
Any ideas what to try now?
Updated!
Went through without a hitch!

same for me i would like to know which need to be writable so i can chmod them?

Noticed that the author of Spam Me Not hasn't been on the forums since March so if anybody has any ideas on how to cleanly remove it I would really appreciate it.
damn..... I installed this cleanly on two forums... the third has the [ img] problem though... DO we have any idea what's causing that problem?
How do I use chmod? (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=23690.0)

-[Unknown]
a bunch... none of which SHOULD have affected the upgrade... except for spam-me-not... and I worked around that in the other forums too...
(one line, the email change in subs.php is the spam-me-not failure. The upgrade works if you have everything except for that one line changed.)

I'm not exactly sure which line was causing the problem... but I went through subs.php by hand and confirmed all the code changes in that file by repasting the code that needed to be in there... (except for the spam-me-not line, which I left as is)
This appears to have fixed the [ img] problem...
Spam-me-not has been identified as causing problems.
-[Unknown]
yeah... unfortunately, Spam-me-not does not uninstall easily...
but I have the spam-me-not line in subs.php unchanged and the forum now works properly... so I am assuming that at leats one other piece of code failed to install correctly.... probably the bit that moved the [img ] call up to the top of the function rather than after the quote section...
hello,
well i've JUST got:
- smf bridged to mambo
- coppermine gallery bridged to smf
so i'm a bit nervous about doing the upgrade.
are there any foreseeable problems when upgrading in these circumstances?
the only smf mod i am using is the login mod i guess.
any responses appreciated, thanks :)
edit: to make things easier to follow groovie's probs are now in the bridge area here - http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=38154.msg279041#msg279041
This should not affect the bridge in any way...
-[Unknown]
the smf-mambo bridge does not modify anything that is checked/updated in this upgrade.
As alwasy... backup your site... but there should be no trouble at all doing this...
(although you may want to drop out of the bridge into the forum alone to do the updgrade, since mambo still has some issues with directory and file permissions)

Sorry to be so dumb but there are several subs files and I've looked until I'm cross-eyed. Can you narrow down where to find that line a little bit.
If I understand you I can save it, upgrade, find the changed line and replace with the original, and all will work?
Thanks for the help...I need it...4+ hours & counting.
both the forum dir and sources are 777 but i still get "Some of the files this package needs to modify are not writable. This needs to be changed by logging into FTP and chmoding the files."
Are the actual files it needs to modify also 777?
It should list them all for you.
-[Unknown]
spam me not changes one line in subs.php
(nothing else... just plain subs.php)
verify that the modifications were actually applied as described in the .mod file by hand to subs.php
Now I'm really confused. So I should make sure the subs.php is the new file from the upgrade & that will solve the problem, or do I have to upgrade then replace the one line you are talking about that spam me not modifies?
If the first is the case I can handle that by just uploading that file manually with overwrite after running the upgrade from package manager I guess.
But if I need to change 1 line there are only about 10 thousand in there, could you point me close to the one that needs changing? :-X
manually changing listed files to 777 had mixed success
got some error statements but the admin center displays version 1.0.4 now
2: /Themes/default/Admin.template.php~): failed to open stream: Permission denied
File: /Sources/Subs-Package.php
Line: 1307
DDT... no, you misunderstood...
If you have NO other mods installed that edit subs.php, that emthod may work for you...
However, if you do have other mods that hace modified subs.php what you do is this:
Apply the patch in the package manager.
ignore the failure notice for subs.php.
then list the files in the package and view the .mod file.
find the section for subs.php
go through and verify that each of the lines (with the exception of the spam-me-not line) was changed according to the patch information.
this is not for the impatient... if you don't know what I'm talking about now, I would say download the full upgrade pack, apply it (losing any mods) and then re-apply any mods that you want.

This error means the package manager is trying to create the file named, and it can't because Themes/default is not writable.

Thank you, I do this for free for a friend with a very active forum but no clue and I'm no PHP "coder" or "guru" as you obviously are. He has lots of mods that are simple (like the map and banner manager) that would require hundreds of users to re-pin their locations and him get me to re-do his banners. It could be done but the locations & maps would be useless, all those people won't do that again.
I didn't think it was being "impatient" to ask for a clue like "about 2/3 of the way down after the lines that say..." or whatever but because you can sort through all that PHP and it makes sense I'm unworthy of doing anything except spending hours looking and still probably not finding one line, the whole time my friends forum has lost all it's images. Since I am 100% disabled and can only stay at a keyboard at the most an hour at a time without lying down a while and since my only income is from that precious few minutes at the keyboard I really can't afford that many hours trying to help a friend even though he's a good friend.
Sorry if I insulted your skill level by seeming impatient and asking for some help. Usually here people are glad to help when they can.
If anybody can just figure out how to get rid of spam me not that would be great. Then I guess I could upgrade as normal.
If I had known it would be this much trouble I would have never installed it. His users don't understand "harvesting" programs so I thought I was doing them a favor when I installed it.
DDT... didn't mean I thought you were impatient... I meant that applying the patch package in this way needs to be done carefully and can not be rushed through...

The Spam-me-not package comes with an uninstall file. Have you tried uninstalling it through the Package Manager? If it won't uninstall, either look at the Uninstall-Spam-me-not.xml file in a text editor and make the changes manually, or look at the Install-Spam-me-not.xml file and work backwards. You could also look at which files are being changed by the install file and merely replace them from your backup copies.
BTW to write this reply, I searched for spam me not, found the link to the package, downloaded the package and unzipped it to read the files. Took only a few minutes.
the spam-me-not might comes with an uninstall xml... but it does not process automatically in the package manager (there is no uninstall option. See my post above with the list of mods...)
I have to say, I hate SMF install/uninstall XMLs... they are very hard to read (much more so than .mod files)
I didn't read the uninstall.xml file too carefully, but, personally, I would read the INSTALL file and work backwards...
The uninstall file doesn't work with newer versions of SMF. That was discussed by several others early on in the thread.
Perhaps after a few hours sleep I'll try to figure out what you are talking about (I don't have a backup from before spam me not) but I did find a few lines of code the other person was talking about somewhere close to halfway through the over 2,300 lines of code in that file. I have no idea what they mean but it's something to do with Spam me not.
Thanks for the ideas. The developers should put up a "dummies" forum for folks like me who aren't like you guys and used to coding PHP or backwards reading XML. Or just put big warnings on the download packages that cannot be uninstalled using the regular software so people like me would leave them alone.
I have probably recommended these forums to 30-50 people since I installed his and just sent a guy an e-mail this morning about how easy he could do a forum site, probably by himself, using SMF because the support community and developers were so great. I guess my previous "one click" upgrades and the easy answers people here had provided left me expecting too much.
Maybe while I sleep 3 or 4 hours somebody will find an easy fix to this mess.
Thanks for your efforts at help. After becoming disabled at 48 and losing my business of 20 years to bankers and lawyers (and being ineligible for ANY government benefits and broke) I had hoped to get some grant money to go to college and learn some of what you people know so I might make a few dollars but nobody will pay for the disabled to take courses on-line and the nearest college is almost an hour away (and I don't think they have much on computer stuff there)
...want some irony in your life, pay your taxes from 15-48 (33 years) then find an illegal immigrant can get money from the government but you can't and THEN find that they will help pay for the disabled get more education but only if they go to school like the healthy, not on-line...now how backwards is that?
Why not just upload the Subs.php file from the upgrade package, after making a backup of the current one?

Sounds like you didn't back up any files before installing the mod. Everything I've read here says repeadly to back up your files before installing mods or packages. Even the Package Manager warns you of that. But, I've also learned the hard way and had to manually back out of something when I hadn't backed up my files.
I don't know who "you guys" are, but I haven't received any formal education or training in PHP, XML or HTML. I've tried to learn what I can by reading and doing. Sometimes I just learn by experimentation. There are numerous free tutorials online, including some very good ones here. Just search the forum or search using Google.
One word of advice I can give you - take note of what [Unknown] writes. [Unknown] is the guru around here and does an excellent job of explaining things in words that even I can understand. If you don't understand an answer, politely ask for a better explanation and be patient. As you see from the number of messages and questions, these folks are very busy trying to help everyone.
Sorry I wasn't of much help.
Sorry if i missed somthing in this thread, but could someone please list the files that are actually upgraded in this 1.0.4 package?
Thanks ;)
See changelog.txt.
Hi there,
could you please add the Version 1.0.4. in the mod part of this site :).
DDT
Here's the first in an easy-to-follow series of tutorials on PHP:
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=1063.msg12454#msg12454
If you search this forum for "PHP lesson" you'll see the rest of the tutorials in this series.
QuoteThe package manager currently allows only these file types: zip, tar.gz.
I'm wondering whats the point of having it to download if we can't install it as a .bz2
The files on the download page CANNOT be installed with the package manager. The package manager update is available through a message in the Package Manager on your current install. The files on the download page here need to be uploaded manually to your forum - so it doesn't matter which file type you download.

hello,
well i've JUST got:
- smf bridged to mambo
- coppermine gallery bridged to smf
so i'm a bit nervous about doing the upgrade.
are there any foreseeable problems when upgrading in these circumstances?
the only smf mod i am using is the login mod i guess.
any responses appreciated, thanks :)
just tried to upgrade in the circumstances quoted above, using the package manager, and eventually ran into this error:

Tried it on 3 systems that I have and had the same failure on each, some are heavily modified, some are not, but they all have Faster Parsecode ;D

The upgrade is ready, it was released to fix a potential security hole, it can't be helped if the changes made conflict with mods.
Can you not uninstall the conflicting mod and then update?
Yes... this has been discussed many times in this thread. The patch will not work (auto-install) with Faster Parse Code.
As for pushing out the update.... it IS ready. Faster Parse Code is a MOD (aka a hack). If you install any mod, you are changing your system from the baseline. .. and the developers of SMF release patches and updates to be applied to the baseline system. They can't (and should not) cater to all the various mods that COULD affect a patch...

i was in the forum area, logged in and just went to package manager, is this what you mean?
ps i read somewhere changing permission would help so i tried, still didnt help, so i undid the changes and now i have this when i try to apply the mod from the package manager (its getting messy!):

groovie,
Do you by any chance not have changelog.txt or changelog-themes.txt in your install?
Also, the problem with index.php is you are not using the standard version number, check it's correct.
For all the people having problems with files ending in ~, this is the package manager trying to make backup files. You need to chmod the DIRECTORY which the files sit in to be writable (777 or similar), this needs to be done for the forums root directory, Sources, Themes/default and Themes/default/languages - alternatively turn off "Create Backup" from Settings.

can any one tell me what files exactly changed?
Important ones:
Admin.php
Subs.php
Profile.template.php
Admin.template.php
Admin language files
All of the others are just version numbering.
Having done my best at the aforementioned suggestions, feeble as it may be, and still being unable to resolve the problem with Spam-Me-Not if anyone comes up with a "fix" or work around for this or a way to uninstall Spam-Me-Not I would still greatly appreciate the help.
I did update those files and run upgrade but nothing happened
Thank you guys... upgraded in a few seconds lol... great work and no problems ;D
Super! It took me only 12 minutes for me to update all the forums I maintain. :D
Aaron.
raedzaro, the version number will only change if you also upload index.php. If you uploaded all the files in my previous post that is enough for the "fixes" to be made.
For someone using Spam-me-not, what happens if you replace the current spam-me-not zip file in your Packages directory with the attached version? I imagine it was because you installed it on 1.0.2 then upgraded to 1.0.3 where there are no uninstall actions defined - I've basically just added an uninstall action for it.
all ok thanks

No. Since you're not a charter member, you should have installed 1.0.4 its the person who posted above you, ping, who shouldn't have installed it.
Just upgraded with the package manager (I have 4 mods installed) went like a charm
thanks :D
Powerbob
Right,
Let me get this straight - you are running the Spam-Me-Not mod, and that is the reason you haven't installed 1.0.4. As long as you haven't done any "partial" installing - try running the attached mod. It will appear in your admin center as "spam-a-lot uninstall" and should uninstall the spam-a-lot mod. Note it will still say the mod is installed - but will actually be done.
If this doesn't work I'm afraid you'll have to do the standard upgrade path which is:
1) Go to downloads page here - download package_1-04_upgrade.zip
2) Extract it to your computer, FTP all the files to your server*
3) Reinstall all your mods (They will all be uninstalled when you do this)
* Note: If you have modified the default theme do NOT overwrite index.template.php or style.css in the Themes/default directory.

I've read thru this thread but still not sure I might screw things up.
In terms of mods:
used the uninstall-spam-me-not succesfully
uninstalled faster parsecode
G&S Sticky - currently installed
On-line users today - currently installed
I also have hacked various files:
boardindex
boardindex.template
index.template
post
subs-post
style.css
stats.template
sorry for being so thick, but what's the best way to upgrade?

I have to uninstall most manually, like FP and for the life of me I can not get the Banner Manager 3.4 to uninstall even by hand >:(
Those 2 really piss me off to no end :-\
Not sure why the FP is a issue with my sites, strange but when I flashed it to 1.03 the FP stayed and worked fine even before they updated it.
I will install a test forum and then copy my old forum over it and do some testing, my main site has Coppermine Photo Gallery & Mambo & MKportal integrated all under the same DB so I get nervous when I have to do a manual "over-write" upgrade vs a "flash" one through the admin center.
I am not knocking SMF its 1 zillion times better to work with than Yabb but many are running the FP due to its add on toys ;)
Well, I upgraed 4 forums using Package Manager and checked for some of the errors I read about in this thread. So far so good, everything seems to work fine on all 4 forums. He crosses his fingers ;)

I suspect that your forum does not support downloading of files from our server direct to yours, download the package direct from:

Apparently, not a one of the beta testers who tested the release were. Still, there's little we could have done except package a special "faster parsecode" or "spam me not" edition of the upgrade, which is a bit inane.

Well, before I got this reply I was finally able to get back into my Package Manager. I didn't do anything to resolve the problem of it not working just a few minutes ago, but it's working now and I was able to successfully upgrade to 1.0.4. Thanks for the tip though Grudge! People helping others like this community does is what makes SMF the best damn forum software out there! :D
Wow that was a fast an easy upgrade
I just went to the package manager and at the top of the page it said you have a new update to install would you like to ?? (or somthing like that) I said yes and the update install fine. Nice job again all
Just upgraded, works a treat !!!!
yup,just upgraded ,everything went smooth and easy,thanks SMF crew!
Two "quickies"
1)I can see in my installed package manager the "upgrade patch" installed with of course not an unnistall option.If lets say 1.1 gets released and i upgrade using the package manager will on my list both 1.0.4 patch and 1.1 patch show? Im wondering that because one may install some mods and if he lets say follows 5 upgrades this way the lsit might get crowded.Will a future patch "sit on" and substitute the current one?
2)I am an Ostrio's bridge proud user! I installed the patch though without uninstalling and then reinstalling his bridge. was i supposed to?
Thanks!
Is this okay after upgrade:

Unforunately, the 1.1 upgrade will *not* be available as a package. Too many changes. It will overwrite the current patch. But, 1.0.5 and any future patches will just work with the old patch.
For the second, yes it is fine.
Well, culpeper, it sounds like you didn't update Themes/default/Admin.template.php.

It said it failed for the subs.php update, which i expect is because I added a custom tag. Should i just make the modifications specificed in the smf_1-0-4.mod file manually?

Now, the Sources, and Default Templates above both state 1.0.4
Current Templates may stay old. Check Admin.template.php and index.template.php, which should both be newer than 1.0.

I get this message
3. Execute Modification ./index.php Failure
Should I "Procced"?
No. There's some problem, and it cannot be installed. Failure has nothing to do with chmod; only with actually not being able to make the changes.
You may have to use the regular upgrade.

welll every thing goes fine but current templates version didn't change.any idea?
Current Templates 1.0.1 1.0.4
The upgrader has no way to know what themes you might have installed. Check with the theme authors for updates, if any are necessary.
Quote from: hassan on June 08, 2005, 11:28:57 PM
thanks for reply profile.template.php is giving ****** anyway i already upgraded what should i do now?by the way can i uninstall 1.0.4 upgrade?
The changes to the Profile template are non-critical and may likely never affect you. You can safely ignore it.

admin.template.php is current to 1.0.4. index.template.php is 1.0 but I think that is because it is Bloc's Simplicity Theme.
That should be fine, then ;).

I did the regular update and all went well except I can not access the Arcade now. When I hit the "games" button it just takes me back to the main forum page.
I'm also get this error in each post.

Nothing to worry about. A lot of mods will require updating for this version of SMF. See the SMF Arcade Mod thread for details.

Yes. Tell the author of the mod that the mod is incompatible with SMF 1.0.4 and he/she will recode it.

It could be; but the author of the mod is more likely to help you better because he knows the mod and he may know a fix for this.

You'll want to clear your installed mods list (you should have uploaded that file, actually) and reinstall the mod.
-[Unknown]
im having hesitations to upgrade since the feedbacks of our fellows about the signature.. BUT if i upgrade to the latest.. is there a SAFE and EASY way to go back to the older version (1.0.3) without restoring a full site backup?
If you make a copy of the sources directory, that's all you need. You can also copy the files with tildas (~) on the end over the new versions - those files are backups.

? whats not being upgraded?
It says "will", does it not? Did you actually install it, or just read the notice of what it will do?
-[Unknown]
If you were at 1.0.2 it will install 1.0.3, and you'll have to do it again to install 1.0.4, or you may not have finished installing it as [Unknown] suggests.
For some reason, I can not upload packages. It tells me...
QuoteSorry, your PHP configuration doesn't have support for zlib. Without this, the package manager cannot function. Please contact your host about this for more information.
How can I correct this and/or update it manually? I have updated all my mods manually. :'(
What would be better for me, the update or upgrade? I'm currently running 1.0.3
Upgraded 10 forums to v.1.0.4, no problems :)
cyberstang5.0,
If you have lots of mods manually installed I recommend doing neither. Simply download the little package and manually install the update - just like you would a mod. It's literally about 5 changes or something. I posted the url earlier - something like:
mods.simplemachines.org/downloads/smf_1-0-4_package.tar.gz
"The upgrader found some old or outdated files.
Please make certain you uploaded the new versions of all the files included in the package."
I get that message when I try to update. I have gone form verson 1.0.1 to 1.0.2 to 1.0.3 to 1.0.4 and I get the same message when I try to run upgrade.php. Any suggestions?
You don't need to run upgrade.php on those updates I believe.
EDIT: But the error is probably due to an out of date Install.english.php file or something :/
I don't quite understand, how do I correct that problem? Any tutorial or directions on that or could you be more specific. I am completely new to these forum type things. Thanks
Ok here is where I stand now: (what are the red Failures for and how to I overcome those?

Those pre-install red "failure" notices should also have had a note somewhere on screen saying that FTP access is required to some files in order for them to be changed. When I've installed/upgraded, the Package Manager asks for the password to be able to get the access it needs. If installing manually, the permissions for some files or directories will need to changed, which is essentially what the Package Manager does itself using your password.

It only asks for your FTP details if you have not CHMODed the files to 777 even if you got all perfect successes, it could still ask you for your FTP. Did on one of the forums I had to upgrade.
littleone,
That error was caused because because your languages directory wasn't chmod to 777. It is however only the backup which failed - not the modification. Does your forum now say 1.0.4?
would it be possible to know what bugs have been fixed? rather than just say "minor bugs been fixed"
thanks
Chromiates Wargaming Forums is upgraded and ready to go. This upgrade really did only take less than 60 seconds via the Package Manager. I am very impressed! Many thanks to everyone on the SMF team. I'm expecting this to be the last 1.0.x upgrade prior to 1.1 or am I mistaken in this?
BTW, I'd like an updated copy of the SMF changelog. Will someone please send that to me? My e-mail address is in my profile. Many thanks in advance. :)
Speedy upgrade via the Package Manager, working just fine. :)
Keep up the good work. :)

Hi
I hate asking this question, but I'm lost. It seems everyone here knows where the pckage manager is and I have no idea. Is it part of 1.03 or part of the dowloaded files that come with 1.04. I keep looking for a folder, a file name or something that says package manager but have no luck finding it.
Sorry for such a basic question, but I'm a rookie. Where and how do I find the package manager???
thanks

That is not correct! The Failure notices mean the file contains something the package isn't expecting.

Hmmm.. so from entire conversation... one comes to a conclusion... that there is no specific solution to [ img ][ /img ] tags problem. I never had any faster parsecode or spam-me-not mods added on my board. And the images used to appear perfectly before I ran this upgrade. and I am very sorry to say, after running this upgrade all images in posts, siggies have turned into codes which is a big loss...

If this is the case, upload all the files from the "upgrade" zip file, instead of using the package.
-[Unknown]
I had one forum that came up with the img issue...
I sent into subs.php and copied by hand, the first block of code from the .mod installation file for subs.php... (that section moves the img command closer to the top of the array, while another command later in the instructions removed the old img command stuff)
Try copying that specific block, by hand, into subs.php... that solved the problem on my one forum that encountered it...
my [img[/img] still not yet working on my site...
Upgrade successful, no problems.
Thanks!
Cheers,

did you click the proceed link?

You replied before I could delete my post. ;D In my defense, it is a little confusing when it says "success" like that.

Ok, so I got this message:
" The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF."
From what I can gather earlier in this thread this means I have to upload the update to my forum folder and do it manually. Newb question, I am assuming I upload the zipped file and do not unpack it first on my hard drive, is that right?
And how do I "run php.update"?
when i uninstalled faster parscode it said that the sub file or something had a failure... now when i try to install 1.0.4 this comes :

However, I did find out a MINOR detail in 1.04. ANY of my extra smileys that I use the "$" in the BBC display code, did not work within a post. Again, this was no big deal, I believe 1.04 is suppose to iqnore the "$" within a post and thats NOT a bug.
Feel free to Correct me If I am wrong. 8)
ShadowStriker,
It's bound to be one of the mods conflicting - just a case of which one :/
At a guess I'd say these are likely candidates:
Custom BB Code
Spoiler Tag
Streaming 3 3.0
In that order...
streaming? i dont even have that installed...
i unisntalled custom bb code and spoiler tag and still get: Type Action Description

striker... you have FasterParseCode installed (and a number of other mods which required fasterParseCode...)
You'll have to uninstall the FatserParseCode... and all the mods that require it.
You would probably be better served by installing the upgrade package and then re-applying the mods that you really feel you need. :)

5. Execute Modification ./Sources/Subs.php Failure
Please understand, Im NOT a genius like the SMF team here. So I will give you the SMF for dummies version of how I learned a few things.
The update program search's for a file. In you case subs.php. When it finds the file (subs.php) the update starts a new search
within subs.php. The
search for is compairing a string of code that should already be in subs.php. If the update's chunk of "Search for" code matches EXACTLY to YOURS, the update program will then Re-write that part with NEW code, and then move on to SEARCH again for the next EXACT MATCH chunk of code and re-write, until it has no more changes of SUBs.php. Then, if ALL changes are completed, you will see "Success". Any part that could not Match exactly in the search, did not get the re-write. This will show as Failure.
Your problem is one or more of the
search for chunks of code doesnt match, therefore, the update did not re-write that chunk.
This has happened to me in the past. What I did, was open the update.php and read the 'Search for", and find that myself in the FAILED file, Manually edit the chunk, putting in
ONLY what the update would have, leaving the rest of the chunk of code alone.
How to? well, if you have the update.php file on your computer, I think it will "open with" note pad. Print it out. Then go to your server cpanel, find in your case subs.php, manually edit the file, save.
Anyone, please correct me if I am wrong here.
actually, there's a step that you missed:
(and note, this is only when using the package manager, not the update ZIP file)
-> Extract any NEW files from the archive and add them into the appropriate directory
-> Check that file that will be modified exist
-> ERROR: File not Found if the file does not exist

striker... you have FasterParseCode installed (and a number of other mods which required fasterParseCode...)
You'll have to uninstall the FatserParseCode... and all the mods that require it.
You would probably be better served by installing the upgrade package and then re-applying the mods that you really feel you need. :)
??? I allready said that i uninstalled it. but i dont know which mod requires it...
I have been trying to upload the upgrrade (the one that cleans out all the mods and stuff) but it wont work... it says its corrupted or something...

If you are using the upgrade.zip (that will clear out all your modifications) you don't use the package manager.
Download upgrade.zip
unzip on your local drive
connect to your site via FTP and upload all the files and folders that you just extracted. (overwrite existing files)
oh...

Striker...
I would hazard to say that there is almost NO way that you arer going to get this upgrade installed (without doing the changes manually) with your mods installed.
You have at least 2 mods that depend on the Faster Parse Code still in there...
So, short of doing the upgrade manually, I suggest using the upgrade ZIP, (thus losing all your mods) and then reinstalling the mods afterwards...
I don't think you will lose the Arcade info, since those are stored in a separate file & table... (but no guarantees...)
How often did we say, that an update with mods results in loosing most of them (if you've a few installed)? And please look after the SMF version below the mod's name if you want to use it. You may have luck that it works, but it's very rare.
i get this error when i try do delete a member:
2: in_array(): Wrong datatype for second argument
Datei: /homepages/46/d30010721/htdocs/Forum/Sources/ManageMembers.php
Zeile: 920
how can i delete this guy?
OMG.... u guys arent understanding anything im trying to say.... first of all what are those 2 mods that i still have that requires faster parscode? second of all im trying to say the UPDATE that cleans out all the mods so u can install them afterwards WONT work.
ShadowStriker, please be patient. The guys here are just trying to help.
Have you read my post here:
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=37856.msg279223#msg279223
Basically, you will have to update your forum the old fashioned way of uploading a full set of files - then reinstalling your old mod. Unfortunately with so many mods installed it's impossible to guess at which one is incompatible - and I haven't the time to download and check every mod to see which one is the problem. Just upload the update package, and try reinstalling your old mods. At least one of them will no longer install because it's clearly incompatible.
woehrl,
Delete the member directly from their profile.
i am having some strange problem.. some part on my forum.. it doesn' t allow people to post or reply. How can i fix that?? let them see the new topic or reply
Sounds like you've set some permissions incorrectly. For one of these members click on their profile, then "Show Permissions". This will show you what permissions they have where.
Hi
at the moment I have FasterParseCode installed, only to get the LanguageTag Mod run.
Is there a way to get the LanguageTag mod running without faster parse code?
cause we have a multilanguage forum, it is a nice feature to add eg board rulez in different langauges, but the user only sees iths selcted language
how can i set up a permission for members who are not posting on my forum? i want them to post 1st b4 they view or reply to their messages.. how can i do that??
use a post count based permission then
how can i do that?? sorry if i ask.. i am kind of new to this... can u tell me the steps please
Its in the Manage Membergroups area of the Admin Center. At the bottom click the New Post Related Membergroup (something to that effect) make a group that requires 1 post. You could give it the same number of stars.

This isn't possible.
You're new to all this and complaining so much?!? Boy, if you don't take time and learn a little bit about board software, it's options and possiblities, I won't accept your screams and cries here. This is not a software for "kids", you've to learn all the features. So set up a test forum and play with it. Read yourself through the online help (questionmarks throughout the board) or read the topics and boards here.

Ahhh... I see what you're doing.
The update package on the download page here is *not* for installation through the Package Manager. The package manager only installs special "packages" - the download page is a full SMF update and has to be installed the old fashioned way (i.e through FTP). Basically, download the package to your home PC, and extract it. Then FTP the files to your forum - overwriting the old ones.
As I said previously, if you've modified your theme at all (For example, changing the colours or banner) I would *highly* recommend you *don't* overwrite the two files called index.template.php and style.css which sit in the Themes/default directory of your forum. Once you've overwritten all the files your forum with be at 1.0.4 but you will have had all your mods uninstalled. At this point you can start reinstalling your mods.
To be honest, when you have as many mods as you, it's probably quite a good idea once in a while to do this as it's something like a spring clean :) A guide can be found here:
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/readme_update.html
Sorry if I wasn't being very clear before.
Grudge
ok ill try that
nm, one question, why isnt it compatible with package manager ???
if i do this will i lose any boards, posts, members, or banner or something? will i lose all the pins for the members map? all the games and highscores for the smf arcade?
Boards, Posts, Members you wont lose them at all, those are stored in the MySQL database.
As for banner, I'm not sure, if you overwrite it then yes, (i.e. smflogo.jpg)
As for Pins on Members Map and High Scores. I'm not sure.
ShadowStriker,
Right - we do two types of updates, package updates and full updates.
A "Package Update" is a small update to go from one version to another - it just contains the differences between two versions (For example 1.0.3 to 1.0.4). This will work for the vast majority of people - but just like any other mod if it conflicts with an existing mod the install will fail (Here for example the update conflicted with the Faster Parsecode Mod and Spam-Me-Not - and maybe others).
If the Package Update fails the only way to update it to upload a clean set of files for the latest version. If you do this it's necessary to upload a "Full Set" of clean files - otherwise existing mods will get half overwritten and half not - which would be awful. So basically, that "update" package has a full set of Sources files, Themes files and a few others. One of the side-effects of uploading these "clean" files is it erases all the information about previous installation of mods - as they are no longer installed.
So, why can't we do this through the package manager? We probably could I guess, although it would be a lot more work for us to Package. Also, it would mean chmod'ing every file and directory to 777 which is a lot of work for some people. In addition, it will leave the Package Manager not understanding how to uninstall the modification - as there is no way back. Maybe in the future we could allow the Package Manager to do something with these archives but really it will always be much easier to use FTP.
EDIT: You won't lose any data for mods. You will just lose the changes they made to the files. As soon as you install the mods back again all your original data will return. Remember - don't uninstall the mods first, simply upload the update, and it will wipe your installed list back to nothing - then just start reinstalling the original mods.
ok, so i switch all the update folders with the original folders?
can nobody help me with my problem?
ShadowStrike - that is correct. Just upload the contents of the update archive to your forum directory and it will overwrite the current Sources etc before hand. Please do a backup before hand though as it's always safer to do a backup - backups make the world go round :)
woehrl,
Could you post lines 910-930 from your ManageMembers.php file? You must have some mod installed as I don't have anything like what you posted on my 1.0.4 version. Could I also suggest you post your results in a new topic in General English support so it doesn't get lost?
almost done but one question, im using my own theme basically a backup of default but i have deleted the smf banner, added a commercial and my own banner, do i need to update my edited theme and then do all the stuff with the commercial, banner, and smf banner again?
No, you should be fine.
How did you create your own theme? If you did it by making a copy of the default (i.e using the "suggested" SMF route) then you shouldn't need to do anything.
If you created your own by editing the default then as long as you don't overwrite the existing index.template.php or style.css file it should all be fine.
this is the code from line 914-950
// Delete a group of/single member.
function deleteMembers($users)
{
global $db_prefix, $sourcedir, $modSettings, $ID_MEMBER;
// Protect the person who started the forum
if ($users == 1 || in_array(1, $users) )
{
fatal_error('You\'re not allowed to delete the administrator.');
exit();
}
// If it's not an array, make it so!
if (!is_array($users))
$users = array($users);
else
$users = array_unique($users);
// How many are they deleting?
if (empty($users))
return;
elseif (count($users) == 1)
{
list ($user) = $users;
$condition = '= ' . $user;
if ($user == $ID_MEMBER)
isAllowedTo('profile_remove_own');
else
isAllowedTo('profile_remove_any');
}
else
{
$condition = 'IN (' . implode(',', $users) . ')';
// Deleting more than one? You can't have more than once account...
isAllowedTo('profile_remove_any');
i have no mods installied which i think could make this error happen
You have modified your code to prevent deletion of yourself, and that's what's causing the error.
Find this:
// Protect the person who started the forum
if ($users == 1 || in_array(1, $users) )
{
fatal_error('You\'re not allowed to delete the administrator.');
exit();
}
Replace with:
// Protect the person who started the forum
if ($users == 1 || (is_array($users) && in_array(1, $users)))
fatal_error('You\'re not allowed to delete the administrator.');

Gosh, This question is very off topic for this thread, so If the mods want to move it, by all means do so.
Mennou, I have something like this idea.
First, on all existing boards newbie access is UNCHECKED.
Next you need a board created just for the newbies, no others have access.(uncheck all other groups but newbies) Newbies, start at zero post count. For this board check the Posts count box. This way they stay in only that board until their post count reaches what you want for full access of your forum. Then, Create the next group level of members above newbies, with post count based of 4, If thats what you want.
As soon as the newbie makes the 4th post, the main forum will be visible and the "newbie Forum" will be hidden, because they are NO LONGER a newbie.
Gee, I hope I made this easy enough. 8)
Ok, so I got this message:
" The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF."
From what I can gather earlier in this thread this means I have to upload the update to my forum folder and do it manually. Newb question, I am assuming I upload the zipped file and do not unpack it first on my hard drive, is that right?
And how do I "run php.update"?
I really hope someone can help a newbie like me.

I used the suggested one.... but what i mean is do i need to switch the files in that theme to...
ShadowStriker,
I don't think any recent patch has changed the core theme files? I assume in your custom theme you only really have index.template.php and style.css? If so you will be fine. You should *not* have a complete copy of the default theme files in your personal theme. (i.e Admin.template.php etc etc) - just the ones you've changed for your site.
Hope this makes sense - sorry this is taking you so long to get sorted
SMF 1.0.4 works great,
thanx SMF :)
i just installed the 1.04 i am trying to add the mods.. i gotthis error.. how can i fix it
2: copy(index.php~): failed to open stream: Permission denied
File: /usr/home/mixspot/public_html/forum2/Sources/Subs-Package.php
Line: 1307
It was because it tried to make a backup of the file and the Sources directory wasn't writable - did your version number change?
check it www.mixspot.com/forum2
Looks fine to me?
EDIT: You seem to have the "Users online today" mod installed/displayed twice for some reason :/
Are the package servers down ?
if not then it's maybe a bug in 1.0.4
cant contact any of those package servers right now !

Well I dl the new smf and i installed it but the only thing I see changed was that I had to go back and fix my news box and remove the file install.php then I seen it was still the SMF 1.0.2.
hmm I think I will leave well enough alone I'm not having prob's .. oh well .. that or I will wait till my husband has time to look at it and see what I did wrong

Well, if "install.php" was involved, you used the installer. To upgrade, you need to use the uprader. For help with that, check the stickies in Install and Upgrade Help (http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?board=10.0)

Changelog.txt
Thanks for the info but when I upgraded the changelog wasn't included. Plus, I don't have FTP access to where the forum is because David (yes SMF's David) hosts the forum for me over at Boardnation. Could you or someone just e-mail the changelog to me? Or, tell me where it should be like /changelog.txt or something.
N/M, I installed a test forum on another domain I own so that I can have more control over the forum and I found the changelog there. Much appreciated for the assistance though.
I do notice, however, that the Changelog only goes up to March 2005 and doesn't include any changes for 1.0.4. Is my changelog incorrect?

Can you tell me where (on what line it cited) it timed out?
-[Unknown]
It times out in that my browser stops responding (tried in Firefox and Maxthon). Maybe I should be waiting longer? I mean, I gave it 3 minutes. Should I be waiting much longer?
If it's anyhelp, I never seem able to view the package servers. When I click on a package server the same thing happens - my browser just keeps trying to load the page indefinitely.
Upgraded, two seconds it took....whaaaaat how lolol
Tried upgrading used the upgrade.php but it said I had files missing, looked at the 1.03 forum (mine) now it says upgrade.php needs deleting lolol inred is a serous warning. may as well delete all now and just upload 1.04 from new.
yesterday I uploaded the upgrade zip via the package installer but it refused the file.
Who said this was easy? I just wish hosts would move with the times..lmaooooo
:(
spoke too soon, yaaaaaay done it lolol
Thanks for the software and upgrade.
:D :D
LOL! someone should stay away from the sugar :P
lol, indeed.
Glad you figured it out kateydrop

D'oh. Just found that I missed a post, the one with the exact info I need. Gonna try to redo subs.php
edit:
Ok, the real image problem has to do with the block about the images after the spam-me not mod.
Just re paste that section. (you may need to reinstall spammenot.
no... the problem occurs because the update removes that section!
In the update, the img section just before the spam-me-not section is MOVED up in the array...
(the code that is added at the beginning of the array should contain the img tag section.... the code lower down is then removed.
ok, I am new to these forums, but I do have smf, when I went to my forums today, it said db is at 1.0 i need to upgrade, So I went to package manager and dled the updates " having 1.03" alrdy installed, I try to upload a the update and upgrade and i get the error ' Could not upload package, please check directory permissions!'
http://www.armyz.net/forums
http://www.armyz.net/trick
Please help!
Edit: I installed 1.04 correctly but I still get the error that my db is at 1.02
I'm sorry it seems like spam but, When I refreshed it said the file boardindex.php had a error, so I downloaded upgrade 1.04 and manually uploaded it and overwrited the previous my forums are now working again. thank you
I upgraded using Package Manager and it went off without a hitch! :)
Well actually, there was a slight problem. It gave a permission error when trying to upgrade files that already had a backup (i.e. index.php~, etc.) even though those files were chmod to 777. Perhaps the installer needs to first delete the ~ files before upgrading. ???
Anyway, once I removed all the ~ files that changed in 1.0.4. everything worked. :D
well i had this error after upgrading
smf_main(/home/tmtunite/public_html/tmtforum/Sources/Portal.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory
would u please help me , I am out of soultions.
great,
SMF 1.0.4 is working perfect

manually changing listed files to 777 had mixed success
got some error statements but the admin center displays version 1.0.4 now
2: /Themes/default/Admin.template.php~): failed to open stream: Permission denied
File: /Sources/Subs-Package.php
Line: 1307
I found this fault on several of the backup file operations. When tracing it back, I found that I had previously downloaded some mod that created a backup file with the same name. When I renamed those backup files, the upgrade to 04 went without a hitch.

If you were at 1.0.2 it will install 1.0.3, and you'll have to do it again to install 1.0.4, or you may not have finished installing it as [Unknown] suggests.
Eldacar - if your avatar is a picture of you, will you marry me???
Question to the developers of this release - and maybe it's too general for this thread -
When I upgraded to this release, I also saw a package I wanted and decided I'd better upgrade to 1.0.4 first. That went smoothly, just some permissions stops along the way, but still less than 15 minutes to complete. I have a pretty heavily mod'ed board, and didn't lose anything that I can tell. Sigs work, file attachments work, etc.
I downloaded the Skype with icon package afterwards, and loaded it up. Now I get an error/notice under the Current Versions check, for this:
Profile.template.php 1.0.1 1.0.4
After loading Skype package, it changed the template back several versions. Now to my question - and probably answering it myself while typing here - when you release a new package like this, are all previously released mod's compatible? Is it the creator of those mod's responsibility, if they are supporting it, to insure it's compatible???
Just curious. After I decided to uninstall the Skype mod, it still kept my profile template an older version, so I'm going to have to figure out how to get that one file updated without redoing the entire board. ???

Yes, it's the mod author's responsibility to keep his or her mod(s) current.

Thanks Dan, I went over to the Skype author's thread and asked the same question. See what he says. Again, great mod guys, keep it up, am looking forward to when 1.1 goes 'live' for the rest of us.

A mod should only change files, not revert files to stale versions.

Hey there, I think you may be replying to my question, if so then all I can say is when I loaded the Skype mod it changed one file back to an older version, assuming it overwrote that file. Under Current Templates: Profile.template.php 1.0.1 1.0.4
Was 1.0.4 when I upgraded to 1.0.4, five minutes later after adding in Skype, it's 1.0.1, and when I unstalled Skype it stayed that way... ho hum... Hey Dan, is there some way of getting that one file updated without running through everything again?
Yes, I was. What I meant was that this means the mod is doing something "wrong". It means that it's not "upgrade friendly", and should be changed to be so.

Reuploading profile.template.php should do the trick. If you want the mod installed open the *.mod file, see what changes need to be made and apply them manually.

The mod author is John Slater, I know him quite well, but we have had our turn of arguments latley. Hopefully all things are settled and I will try to get in touch with him.
;D I LOVE SMF!!! Great googly moogly, I've run xmB on two boards for about two years, they are really stale and not very open with their users, not to bash them, they have a great BB product. Then I've run phpBB for about a year on another three boards, and find them to be completely and totally antagonistic to their own users, and constantly require mods to keep up with changes to their product. At last count, I had 67 mods to my phpBB boards, all running the same mods with just variations for templates, most of those mods were to correct issues in previous releases.
SMF IS JUST FRIGGIN GREAT! Yes, wrong place for an advert, but this sh$t smells so purty, I'd wear it along with my fur lined jock strap and my pink tutu... 8)
For your pleasure and enjoyment, if you happen to have the "FasterParsecode" mod installed.

I recently did the automatic 1.0.4 patch via the admin section of my site. It went without a hitch, until Father's Day when I got a boardindex.php error message at login telling me that I needed to fix the database, because it was version 1.0 and not 1.0.4, despite the fact that I had successfully installed the 1.0.4 patch the day after it came out. The error (sorry I did not save it) also told me that I needed to install the full 1.0.4, then run upgrade.php.
I went ahead and did this, and reinstalled all the code changes and mod's I had done to the site.
[PS - The board runs great now]
I then went over the error_log and discovered that on May 23, May 31, and June 16, there were numerous attempts to rewrite a couple of lines of the Security.php file that was Chmod to 777. I have since Chmod the Security.php file to 755. Is it OK to Chmod the Security.php file to 755. Also, I will be happy to send the error_log file that is in binary to one or more of the 'official' SMF developers/writers for analysis. Just contact me via Email.
To rewrite it? You may wish to contact your host - even if it is 777, they have to be able to GET TO IT first.

Just thought I would pass on the information, since it falls into the "you never know" category regarding security, programming, and development.
I am also well aware of the 'fact' that there are some nefarious, and less than reputable computer consultants who contract to some of the biggie server provider and routing firms, who also engage in hacking/cracking practices on a routine basis. The server and routing companies I have dealt with regarding this 'serious' security breach issue, do not apper to be the least bit wise to what these individuals are doing, and in a large majority of cases deny that this problem is going on, of course allowing the hacking/cracking perpetrators to continue doing what they are doing without anyone being the wiser.
Sorry I even bothered to bring the issue up. Just trying find ways to close the gaps and holes.
