SMF 1.0.1

[[Unknown]]

But we are still having a lot of Problems with pictures. Thought they are gone when everything is updated.

No Pictures can be seen when using Firefox but the boardpictures (icons, buttons aso.)
Avatars are gone, attached pictures aren't seen in threads, only the download link.
Even downloading an atteched Picture from the Board doesn't work. It downloads, saves to disk but cannot be opened in a program. "Unsupported format"

I suggest you post a new topic about this, if you haven't already.  I also suggest you try using repair_settings.php.  What is repair_settings.php?

I noticed that I didn't have the $boarddir/changelog-themes.txt or $boarddir/changelog.txt files. I assumed that they would be created with the update, but i can't find them. Should I have created blank ones before the update?

Don't worry about it.

To anyone having issues with those files, or with creating files with ~ in them... it shouldn't be that much a problem.  But, it may very well be caused by the folder SMF is installed in not being 777 itself.

Thanks SMF, we love updates. Two tiny problems I'd like to report...

Number format is still not effective. I've chosen 1,234.00 but all numbers are still displayed as 1234.00

You'll need to resave your settings to fix that, and again it only applies in a great FEW places.

Problem with pagination when displaying unread topics for a specifc board

I think I fixed that, and it works here?

Your host has set up PHP in such a way that the package manager cannot currently function.

You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ' 0)(1, 253, 25, , 0)(1, 296, 25.2, , 0)(1, 364, 27.2, , 0)(1, 3
File: /usr/webroot/swck/smf/Sources/Search.php
Line: 643

This is strange.  I can fix it, but it appears that it's *somehow* matching topics that have been deleted.  Perhaps you searched, and then the topic was deleted, but the cache not changed?  I'm not sure.

I've fixed it so you won't get a database error, but it shouldn't be a huge issue; does it happen every time?

If I upgrade through the package manager, this will replace certain key files then or does it modify them?

I have modified several files in the code in order to manually have more options in user profiles.  Each time I upgrade, I then have to recode those files.

So, does going through the package manager just merely add or correct code?  If this is so, then my code is there.

It modifies.

Can I add to this I just found that although it tells me its upgraded and I have version 1.01 it tells me the sources files and current templates are the old version? The other files are fine and I just ftp'd again the new sources etc! 

Only changed files have new version numbers.

^Raven^, you're looking at the package you want .  But it will only upgrade from 1.0.

package manger gave error : "no installation or uninstallation actions defined".  Didn't find a useful answer to that one in the forums.

It probably didn't download properly :/.

I'm reluctant to update if I'm going to have to go through it all again, for what are only minor changes to SMF. Our site uses two "home made" themes, if I use package manager to do the upgrade will it lose any of those code changes and mods I have installed ? If its a yes then i'll leave it for now, if its a no, I will complete it.

It makes modifications to the files, it doesn't replace them.  That said, 1.1 probably will not be as simple as a package manager update, so be forewarned.

Same to RyanB - it should be fine, using the package manager update.  However... remember...

BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP!

Also, backup.  And did I mention that backing up was a good idea?  I should hope I did .  Seriously - do make sure to backup, it shouldn't be a huge process and should be something you do *at least* a few times a month anyway.

I AM my own host, running my own server. How do I have PHP configured incorrectly?

Turn safe mode off

Heh, well, you can either turn safe mode off or enable suExec.  The two options nicely compliment each other, but if you use safe mode without PHP suExec you're just asking for problems like these.

worked great for me. done through the package manager.

[Winters]

Hm, we don't have it in our package manager, either.

[Owdy]

First page in package manager. Its there, not 'in' packages.

No, it won't, but... the Spanish language files were updated more than slightly.

I would use the package manager update; it won't overwrite anything.

I'm running the Board with Dutch language and not the default Theme.....Updat went smooth, BUT:
On checking the install files in the Forum admin I see that:
a) Language Files have old version (Packages.dutch.php / index.dutch.php);
b) Current Template is old version (BoardIndex.template.php / Recent.template.php).

How can I fix this?

No one?

[Ben_S]

A really great way of upgrading.

No not every time. Only when I search with a very common word in the forum. Many topics might have had this word in their topic.
The error message is diffrent depending on if I'm logged on or as a guest.

try search for corgi... (this fail)
Then the word test...

a) New language files can be downloaded in the downloads section: http://www.simplemachines.org/download.php#lang

b) If you have a custom template that you made... it will show as an old version unless you update it.

For the search error, find in Search.php:

Code Select Expand

$tmp[$ID_MSG] .= "($modSettings[search_pointer], $row[ID_TOPIC], $relevance, $ID_MSG, $row[numMsg])";

Replace:

Code Select Expand

$tmp[$ID_MSG] .= '(' . (int) $modSettings['search_pointer'] . ', ' . (int) $row['ID_TOPIC'] . ', ' . (int) $relevance . ', ' . (int) $ID_MSG . ', ' . (int) $row['numMsg'] . ')';

How do I modify files?

This won't be necessary for most people.

a) Language Files have old version (Packages.dutch.php / index.dutch.php);
b) Current Template is old version (BoardIndex.template.php / Recent.template.php).

The changes to the templates are minor, and can be ignored.  Nevertheless, to update them you would have to make the same custom changes to whatever themes you have installed.

You may wish to download the Dutch language files off the downloads page and upload them.

Darn, too slow.

Unfortunately this didn't help. Done your suggested mod without any difference

If you made that change and you're still getting a database error, it must be a different one...?

That could either be a problem with your ISP or your web host. Try uploading another set of random files, and if that happens again, that's most likely the issue.
