I was told I have a bad error here:

Quote
/home/warrior/public_html/Sources/Subs.php on line 3065

I don't know what the error is, would anyone know what might go wrong on there?

Illori

what is the whole error message? it should tell you what the error is on that line, and without your file we cant tell you what the fix may be.

This is what I got:

http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=380927.0 seems to be the only thing related to this, in trunk that line has been changed to what is in the last post in that thread

Can you give us more details regarding this, as who produced the error "guest" or "member".

Also is this error generated frequently?

I'm sorry...you guys totally lost me. I don't understand, and right now I have no further information. I have attached the file. I don't know what to do to fix it.

Yes, it is a frequent error.

As illori suggested, have you tried the code change provided in this reply?

That error is on a different line, so I didn't want to do anything yet until I spoke to Flamer, who is the one who found the error.

Illori

that is because you have mods installed, it is still the same code that needs to be replaced.

wynnyelle

Oh it is? I'm sorry! I didn't know.

I will try the fix and get back to you.

I totally don';t know what I am supposed to put into that line. Where does it actually tell you what to change it to?

Make backup of file before editing it

Sources/Subs.php

Line: 3065
Code (Find:) Select
$_SESSION['USER_AGENT'] = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];

Code (Replace it with:) Select
$_SESSION['USER_AGENT'] = empty($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']) ? '' : $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];

I tried it and the entire site wouldn't work. I re-uploaded the old file.

wynnyelle

The code editor won't input the edits without wiping the file. That's why, I discovered. I'm helpless here. I can't fix the file and when I try to open it in notepad on my own computer, the entire thing's a mess.

You need something that recognises Unix line endings, ssuch as Notepad++,  not the one that comes with Windows.

live627

I edited the file accordingly.

wynnyelle

Thank you. Would I be able to get Notepad++ for free, or does it cost something?
