Simple Machines is happy to bring you SMF 1.0.2. This is a minor release, but contains a few bugfixes. As always, we hope this new version is more stable, usable, and generally better than the previous.
We would appreciate it greatly if you gave us constructive feedback on this release, as well as bug reports.
If you feel you have found a security hole or very serious bug, it is best to email
[email protected] to make sure the correct people are notified. However, if it is not critical, it will be more quickly addressed if it is posted to SMF Coding Discussion or General English Support. For other problems, please post in the appropriate section of General English Support.
Some of the changes and bugfixes from the previous version (1.0.1) are:
- the search functionality now works better when create temporary table is disabled.
- the package manager was not skipping files correctly.
- some servers with strange security settings were complaing about URLs.
- the CGI bugs were not being worked around with FastCGI (IIS, etc.).
- the recount forum totals functionality wasn't affecting all statistics properly.
Please see the changelog for a more detailed list of these changes, and more.
If you are upgrading from 1.0.1, the easiest way to update is through the package manager. However, if you want to use file uploads, 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. You can also use it to upgrade from YaBB SE.
You can always find information posted here about things like installation, upgrade, and more. The archive files themselves also include manuals.

Thanks,
Simple Machines
I initially used the package manager to upgrade to 1.0.2 and then checked the file versions. The sources stayed at version 1.01. Does that matter? Also I check the packages and there were two of the same for the 1.02 package...not sure if it was something I did or not.
I next download the upgrade package and ran that and it upgraded everything including the sources.
I have tryed to upgrade and i extractewd the zip and it still say they are need to be more files updated
IIRC only some of the files will change to 1.0.2. Basically, if you do a detailed version check after upgrading everything should match what it says here.
EDIT: I want to empthasize that only SOME of the files will say 1.0.2. Files which have NOT been changed for this release will still show as 1.0.1 (Or 1.0 if they wern't changed for 1.0.1!)
oks thank you ;D
WOW I am on the first page, I love that live news part on admin TNX SMF!!!
:)
Retell ;)
What does this mean? I chmodded all the source php's to 777 and it still happened

You can ignore that, it just means the "changelog.txt" file was not found.... I would use the update/upgrade package from the download page.
-[Unknown]
yup, done. thanks...
I did an update through the package manager. The maintenance are now tells me that these two files are out of date, though:
security.php
news.php
tried using the new 1.0.2 installer and when i try to run the install it tells me that there are crucial installation files missing from the files source.
Unable to find crucial installation files in the directory of this script!
Please make sure you uploaded the entire installation package, including the sql file, and then try again.
Click here to try this step again.
thats the error and i don't understand it cuz i just downloaded it just now and tried to do the install. anyone know why im getting this error. I did not try upgrading as my board is fairly new so i didn't care if i lost anything i did back it up however.
Sorry, there was a mistake in the package file. Please upload this file to your Packages directory and apply it (it will fix the missing changes.)
http://mods.simplemachines.org/downloads/smf_1-0-2_update.tar.gz
sh-demon, the error you're getting most specifically indicates that "smf_1-0.sql" does not exist. Are you sure you uploaded all the files? Or do you mean to use the upgrade?
-[Unknown]
like i said its a brand new install i just downloaded the newest smf a few minutes again and unless it didn't come with the zip file then i should have it. but looking at the unzipped folder i do see that that file is not there so there must be something wrong with the zip file. could someone check it please.
EDIT: I used the old sql file that came with 1.0.1 and that let me install it but im curious as to why the new one doesn't come with a sql file. Was there something changed on that file that is needed? If so i will delete and install again once the package is fixed.

If you have the SMF<-> Mambo bridge, then I got a similar message. HOWEVER, if you type in the url: "www.yoursite.com/smfdirectory" and view the recent version, it will say 1.0.2. Which is very weird....
OK using the mod I get this error

File: /home3/bkoxefwo/public_html/Sources/Subs-Package.php

This comes up after the I click proceed
I have smf 1.0.1 installed and modified to run within mambo and utilise shared css, database, etc with mambo, etc.
I am concerned that once I upgrade I will need to spend much time trying to re-edit the many smf files to work within mambo and re-customise them to how they were again...
Could you advise on the best way for me to upgrade to 1.0.2?
Many Thanks

Use the package manager update.

Ight guys Ive just manually installed 1.0.2 update to my 1.0.1 SMF boards, and Ive run into a few errors. I had about 10-15 mods installed, and now pretty much nuthing works. The arcade isnt even accessable, I get an error message for my banners and I cant login to admin due to a session error.
Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again.
I cant really do anything without admin.....so any ideas
Many thanks. I know what happened now. When I upgraded to 1.01 I loaded the files and the board showed upgrade. I never fixed the permisions.
do you need both SMF 1.0.1 Update Package and SMF 1.0.2 Update Package (installed via package manager) running or can you delete 1.0.1 after installing 1.0.2
And yet another Very SImple upgrade....
thanks for the time you guys took to release this.. :D
and lol when u guys gonna upgrade on here? :P

I strongly suggest you upload the files from the "upgrade" zip file on the downloads page, and then try a bit of restraint when installing mods...

Only the one is needed... but if you have 1.0, you need to use the 1.0.1 update first.

What versions should match what? I can't find where "here" is? EG: where is the list of updated files I can confirm have been replaced - it still states its 1.0.1 for me...
When i try to upgrade trew my admin panel i get this..
Installing this package will perform the following actions:
Type Action Description
1. Execute Modification ./changelog.txt Failure
2. Execute Modification ./index.php Success
3. Execute Modification ./news_readme.html Failure
Can I still move on or what?..
You can probably failures ignore those files.... probably means they aren't the latest versions.

Thanx ill upgrade now before school :P
Well done!
Done, 7 minutes it took to upgrade (FTPing longest)
Making a backup took longer then executing the update :)
I dont have much to add to the subjest besides the fact you guys have the most easy upgrade system i have used. Went smooth for me.
Thanks again for all the great support. :)

No. There's one in a language file, but it's a typo so insignificant it's not really worth it :P.
-[Unknown]
this is my first upgrade, and I´m surprised and really amazed how simple, easy and smooth it went. Thanks a lot!
Sincerely
Wiebke
Upgraded from 1.0 without problems. :)
What I did:
- Make backup
- Uninstall packages
- Upload new files using FTP and run upgrade.php
- Upgrade my temporary forum also, and try if my packages would work with the new version.
- Install packages on my real forum
I have one question btw: what if, for example, one error occurs with one file when trying to install a package, will the changes made in the other files be reverted to their original state? Because otherwise you'll end up with a half installed package <-- how to fix that when that happens?

Looks like you uploaded some files in RESUME not OVERWRITE mode.
-[Unknown]
just upload again in overwrite?
Since I upgraded - some of my members instant messages are showing up in my inbox.
:o
^^ LOL.
THanks unknown. I cleaned out my database, put in a backup then reuploaded the files properly. Im back in business and upgraded.
For those of you using the Mambo-SMF bridge...
1) The version is acquired from the bridge files... so if you apply the update and it still says 1.0 or 1.0.1, then that is OK. Your files WERE updated... but the bridge is listing what it was written as. You can correct this is the bridge file, if it's a big deal to you.
2) Just as a point, most of the time, using the package manager should really be done from outside the bridge. Any updates to index.php *MAY* fail from within the bridge, depending on your setup.
Okay my forum is broken! Upgraded following the upgrade instructions and now none of my mod's work! What should I do? The upgrade was sucessful but I also have a problem when viewing posts, members get this error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: barexp() in /home/britport/public_html/Sources/Load.php(1040) : eval()'d code on line 420

Try re-uploading your Load.php froma fresh install thing, maybe actually cleanning all your sources if your mods arent working, but try uninstalling them first :)
Thanks for the info. That didn't work I am sorry to say.
:(
If you made an update, no mod will work after it (most of them).
Now I am lost! Maybe a note about that could of been made in the upgrade? If I knew in advance that this issue would arise I would of taken a different tactic to upgrading the forum!
All I have now is a broken forum and I am not sure how to fix it.
:(
You should make backups before.
Well uninstall the mod if you can and re-upload all your files from a fresh install i guess.
LOL!
http://www.simplemachines.org/community still reports using 1.0.1 !
And I upgraded five minutes ago. I used maybe one minute to do it. (after spending five minutes reading this thread first).
I'm not sure why we're still running 1.0.1 here, but I'm sure that will change soon. You will have to be patient for a little while and give mod authors a chance to update their mods.
Eh, we're debating running 1.1 here. :P Glad 1.0.2 was an easy upgrade.
Na, they are just using us as Guinea pigs. ;)

after i click post. The message is posted and it says
I also used the package manager version, mods still work, but some of them lost the "uninstall" option when you package list what you have.
what should i do
i ve upgrade manually trough ftp... now my arcade module isnt working anymore...
what file do i have to edit.. when i click at games it brings me to the indexpagiina... of the forum..
thnx in forward..
???
well, for certain, you'll have to edit index.php in your root directory for ANY mods that included an extra call (member map, msg icon, chat, arcade, pie chart to name a few)
submit 'arcade' => array('Arcade.php','Arcade'), in index.php.... upgrading was easy... i am sorry... i forgot about that... :) ;)
i get the following failures in the package manager:

Not sure but try re-uploading post.php
Also do a detailed version check and make sure it updated stuff ;)
it say smf1.0.2 at the bottoms. I will rewrite post.php.
IT works
This is the first time i did upgrade it was hard for me. Backups took a long time
Installed 1.0.2 and had no problems -- good work as always-- thanks
one question.... about languagues files..
¿ Can i use smf_1-0-1_english or smf_1-0-1_spanish with smf_1-0-2 ?

Did you use the package or upgrade/update? Can you try uploading clean files again, replacing all mods?
No changes are needed in any language files.
This site hasn't been updated yet because it has newer files than 1.0.1 anyway. Like I said before, most of the changes in 1.0.2 were server specific.
-[Unknown]
I get this while trying to istall a mod:
Note: It appears that your database may require an upgrade. Your forum files are currently at version SMF 1.0.2, whereas your database is at version SMF 1.0.1. It is recommended that you execute the latest version of upgrade.php.
There were no database changes in SMF 1.0.2. There's simply an error in the mod - I'm guessing the Arcade mod?
-[Unknown]
worked without probs.
good work

I used the upgrade. I have deleted the messages in my inbox. I was just going to see if it happens again. If it does I will do as you suggested.
I took down all my packages before the upgrade. That went fine. When I installed some of them I got errors.
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_IF, expecting ')' in /home/****/public_html/forum/Sources/Subs.php on line 891
I think some of them dont work with 1.02? Anyone else experiencing this?

1.0.2 is to be bad for mods :P All mods changing/upgrading :)
yep. alot of mods change needed. :-[
updated through package manager with no big errors (except some permission things)
Updated through FTP since I had a lot of mods, worked with ease and no problems.
Thanks for the update. ;)
If the updates are server specific and 1.0.1 works fine for me, I think I'll just stay with 1.0.1. Unless there's any security update but I don't think that was mentioned.

I take a look at my mods, but wat happens with the theme's ?? not classic of default !!??
The package you tried to upload either is not a valid package or has become corrupted.
What I keep getting trying to upgrade through the package manager... so either I'm missign something or I'm a complete n00b...
I have a number of mods but the pacman update didnt affect any of them and so far no errors and the forum is running as good as ever.. Thanks SMF team :)
I updated through Package Manager and it went perfectly and none of my mods have been affected. Everything working as smoothly as ever. :)
OK i have smf 1.0.1. and would like to upgrade
I have MKPortal M 0.5 as my front end portal
Coppermine bridged as my gallery
My Mods are:
SMF Arcade 1.0 Beta 5.6
Integrated Chat 2.2
Should i do a manual upgrade using ftp or use the package manager
Also should i first remove mods or just do the upgrade
Problem is i want to do upgrade with least amount of inconvenience to my members.
Thank you in advance
I am curently running 1.0 rc and want to up grade to 1.2 however i have templates and i made my own chat mod.. i dont want to lose this while upgrading.. what files to i HAVE to upload and run?
just the upgrade php???
Chad
Running upgrade.php will serve no useful purpose if you don't upload the new files that fix earlier problems.
If you are going to upgrade, you will have to reinstall your chat mod and you may want to re-do your templates...
ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!
I was afraid you were going to say that!!
Chad
BTW whats the easiest way to upgrade to this... can i do it thru the package manager?? what passwords or hurdels can i expect?? I worry about the mysql database transfering properly or is this pretty simple update?>?
Thanks again
Chad
Well, if you're still running on an RC release... The best bet is to download the full upgrade package and do it via FTP and then run upgrade.php...
I don't think the package manager will handle RC to 1.0.2
Okay, running 1.0.1, did the Package Manager thing to update to 1.0.2, and then saw this:

I initially used the package manager to upgrade to 1.0.2 and then checked the file versions. The sources stayed at version 1.01. Does that matter? Also I check the packages and there were two of the same for the 1.02 package...not sure if it was something I did or not.
I next download the upgrade package and ran that and it upgraded everything including the sources.
Same here...I upgraded to 1.0.2 but shows I'm running 1.0.1. Any ideas?
Jim
chmod thos files to 777
Puchu, the downloads from this site are not packages.
Curmudgeon, try "localhost" for the hostname.... and make sure the path starts with what you see in your FTP client. An example might be "www/smf".
Flapper, just use the package manager update and all will go well.
Jiminoregon, are you clicking continue? Is the FTP information going away? Did it say "installed successfully" after you clicked proceed? Remember, the screen where it says "success" next to filenames is just informative, it doesn't do anything yet.

Used the Package Manager.
Worked Great!! No Problems!!
Thanks Guys!!!
Just upgraded through package manager, no problem at all. Took all of 5secs. Thanks.
The strangest (coolest) thing I noticed is that the only mod I've ever done was change this line in load.php
'registered' => empty($profile['dateRegistered']) ? $txt[470] : strftime('%b %d, %Y', $profile['dateRegistered']),
Now, I see that it is standard. How sweet is that?!? I wonder if I influenced it? ::)
Oh, one side note, I'm still using a couple of custom templates from 1.0 RC2, has any significant changes been made to any of them? Thanks.

Thanks, Unknown -- did that but still no joy. For path, my FTP client tells me "/home/rudegnu/public_html/lgsa-forum" What would be the correct path to enter in this case?
(One other wrinkle is that I'm using Port 8888 -- could that have a bearing?)

Thanks, Unknown -- did that but still no joy. For path, my FTP client tells me "/home/rudegnu/public_html/lgsa-forum" What would be the correct path to enter in this case?
(One other wrinkle is that I'm using Port 8888 -- could that have a bearing?)
Port makes no difference, or shouldn't... you mean HTTP port, not FTP, right? Either way it shouldn't matter.
Hmm... it's probably public_html/lgsa-forum. When you log into your FTP, what folders do you see immediately? If you see "public_html", then it's definitely what I said to the left....

I meant FTP port, 'cuz that's what I have to use when I log in with my FTP client. What I see is the "rudegnu" folder which contains the "public_html" folder and many others.

Didnt we already do this?
Its because they have a veriety of files and havent yet updated the copyright to say 1.0.2 as they are running some files from 1.1 :)
something very weird, like the last upgrade i went to http://www.simplemachines.org/download.php and dowloaded smf_1-0-2_update.zip to my PC. Then on my forum in the admin cp went package manager and Upload a Package, found the file on my pc and clicked on upload, but get this error:
An Error Has Occurred!
The package you tried to upload either is not a valid package or has become corrupted.
it has never done this before
help!!!!!
Unzip the files
FTP them overwriting current files then in the browser goto upgrade.php and it will work ;)

Same thing -- computer thinks about it for half a minute and then just presents the same screen.
I note that the uploaded file smf_1-0-2_update.tar.gz is owned by nobody and has permissions set to 666. Coould this be the problem, I wonder -- would it not need to have execute permission?

Why wont the pacage manager work anymore, also if i upload using ftp will it knock out my mods like arcade and chat.
1. It works fine, your using it wrong, goto the package manager and theres a package manager update package :)
2. Uploading would probably kill your mods
Thanks SMF team :)
I upgraded today through the Package Manager on Windows XP running IIS. It worked flawlessly. Didn't lose a single setting. I was pleasantly surprised.
Had a problem deleting upgrade.php but all sorted and working now,
Thanks for help and advise everyone

Ok...now for a dumb question...if you look at this persons signature...you get a clickable banner. I can figure out how to post responses on my site with a clickable link or with a banner pic (using an attachment).
But how do you combine the two and come up with a clickable banner like Xrd?

Huu, so funny...
I got this error message while upgrading:

The rest was successful. But the forum is not working, there is an error message stating "cannot load "errors" template".
I just have uploaded the Themes folder and have overwritten the previous folder. Maybe I deleted too many files. How should I proceed?
If you download the upgrade download from the downloads page and upload the themes folder, does that help?
Sounds like you are currently missing the errors template.

I have used the "upgrade" instead of the "update" and now everything works fine.
Hi, I used the update file and my forum totally disappeared, leaving only a blank white page. So I tried the install package instead, and that didn't work, then I tried the Upgrade file, and now when I go to ugrade.php I get this message:

Connection Problems
Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.
I've tried re-uploading the full files from a previous back-up version (smf 1.00, I think) but it doesn't work at all.
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I'm using Dreamweaver to upload the files. Any suggestions would be appreciated... :'(
Looks like something happened to the Settings.php file. Check Settings_bak.php or a backup of your own...
-[Unknown]
I put Setting_Bak and Settings.php on the server and it returned to giving me a blank white screen again, as well as redirecting me to install.php. So I deleted install.php and now when I go to upgrade.php I get:
QuoteWarning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO) in /home/futurius/public_html/futuri_plex/upgrade.php on line 59

Hello,
I will admit that for once I haven't read the whole thread... sorry, still just 2 questions:
Can we update/ upgrade from 1.0 (templates still RC 2) and how? (Our pckage manager is NOT working) Or do we have to go via 1.0.1?
Thx in advance.

Not gonna try the tool -- not running PHP in safe mode.
Tried connecting to the IP address instead of locahost (through Port 8888) -- made no never mind.
Which log would tell me, I wonder, if the file smf_1-0-2_update.tar.gz being owned by nobody is causing the trouble?

What I'm saying is this tool also fixes the "owned by nobody" issue, although that shouldn't be the problem in this case. While it's mainly designed for those using safe mode, it doesn't hurt you if you're not.
Alright, well, can you telnet to port 8888? Go to Start -> Run -> type cmd, and then in the black box that appears enter:
telnet ipaddress 8888
If it works, you should get a blank screen. After that, press and hold Ctrl, and then press ]... then type "quit" and hit enter. You can then close the window, if you'd please.
It may be that the FTP server isn't accepting connections from its own server, in which case it may be better to use the update/upgrade instead, or make the changes manually.

I gave that a shot and it didn't seem to change anything.
I then tried repair_paths/php and that didn't do anything either.
My forum still isn't showing up. :(
My hosting company just upgraded to php 4.3.10. Will that effect SMF in any way. I see that phpbb.com came out with 2.0.12 to fix some issues with phpbb and php 4.3.10.
SMF should work fine with 4.3.10 :)
One Question....
If i upgrade my SMF 1.0 RC2 to 1.0.2 i will lose my Portuguese Language pack files in server???? I need to put the language pack again???
Yeah you will probably need a new language pack
Firstly, love SMF!
Secondly, you guys have done a great job - and for free!
But for a non-techie like me it's starting to get a bit high maintenance. It seems that everytime there is even a small change which requires an update/upgrade I have to delve into my custom template and manually make changes, which is dangerous for my skill levels, and mods stop working or can't be downloaded until the mod devs have updated them.
Is it necessary that whole files need to be overwritten? Or could there be a way of just modding the parts that need changing?
You could have used the package manager to upgrade, that would have been a simple less than five click operation that would not have affected any installed mods or your themes.
That sounds like a better idea.
I can find the download files but the update/upgrade package doesn't show up when I search for new downloads in PM?
Am I looking in the right place?
If you are on 1.0.1, it should show something in the package manager about an update being available.
Cheers Ben

I have never upgraded SMF and am using 1.0 RC2. I downloaded the upgrade to 1.0.2, but am unsure what to do now. I have alot of modded default templates... so when I upload the files to my server, do I overwrite my modded templates? How does it retain my mods? The package manager isn't available, so i'm not sure what to do.
I apologize in advance.

Thanks.
Very easy. Like putting a hot knife through butter.

Ah, If only I'd just left things the way the Package Manager set them up for me, I would have had no worries. :-[ But I changed "localhost" to my VSP's IP and I changed Port 21 to Port 8888 'cuz that's the way I was told to FTP to my VSP. Trouble is -- Port 8888 expects SFTP, so no dice. Finally tried localhost and Port 21 and everything sailed through smoothly.
What an insanely great piece of work is this SMF!

Here's the low down:
Your database is
fine. The only part that is broken is the part that tells SMF
where your database is, because you
deleted that. Fixing it is as simple as
putting the information back in Settings.php. This means your
database connection information.
The repair_settings.php is a tool that will
help you do this, but it
cannot do it for you. You will
need to set up your database information again, whatever you do, so
that is what you have to do. There is
no getting around that.

Theoretically, you shouldn't have changed a single file under Themes/default, so this shouldn't be a problem. If you changed any of said files, you'll either need to redo them, or better yet make them to a new - and separate - theme.
That said, most of the RC2 templates should work fine with 1.0.2.
Heh, curmudgeon.. sorry, we were both over complicating it. Glad you got it solved!

I upgraded to 1.0.2 today using the package manager. Everything looks fine. ;D Great work!
