Topic: SMF 2.0.8 Released

[Dav999]

Right, I didn't think of the option to ignore errors for a moment, but I imagine several support topics about people asking what to do though, since the package manager says it's highly not recommended to continue if there are errors, even if they know that they changed it. Especially the people who are not good with computers.

Sounds like an option for 2.1?

[Arantor]

Oh dear god not more options. I tried to remove options in 2.1 because more != better.

The thing is, you already have an option. You're presented with the option to proceed anyway and manually make changes. Or the package author has an option to mark certain edits not done - as in fact the 2.0.8 package makes use of, owing to a glitch in how 2.0.7 was prepared in the first place.

Please uninstall MySQL patch made by Arantor, before installing SMF 2.0.8, patch contains those changes.

Please uninstall MySQL patch made by Arantor (thanks again!) before installing SMF 2.0.8, patch contains those changes.

Why thank me? All I did was port what was already in the PostgreSQL files to MySQL. It was literally already written.

Manually installed without error on all of my forums.

For me, it has created problems. It was auto upgraded on my site by Installatron... and ever since the site disappeared and it just showed a blank page.

I tried to restore a back up of previous version auto created.. it runs till 4-6% slowly and then jumps straight to 100% saying restored.. but it shows only the header and rest of the site displays this error. "The database value you're trying to insert does not exist: cachedblocks"

I have no idea now how to restore my site onto the new version or the previous version without losing anything.

hi... this topic is not for support -- please open a topic in the support section... however. also, issues with mods should be raised with the mod author.

[Steve]

Please do not use this topic for support requests.  You will receive a much quicker and better response by posting in the relevant support board!

Does anybody read the first post or do they just read the title and think 'ooh, an upgrade' and then go try it?

[Deaks]

Steve, every time their is a release people ask for support in the topic, no matter how many times you say dont ask for support in this topic.

Yo man, try apply patch to THIS version: http://download.simplemachines.org/index.php?thanks;filename=smf_2-0-7_install.tar.gz (.tar.gz).
And you take a trouble with Subs-Editor.php and QueryString.php, because this file not equal to files from THIS version: http://download.simplemachines.org/index.php?thanks;filename=smf_2-0-7_install.zip (.zip).

Subs-Editor.php (134)

Code: (.tar.gz) [Select]

// Parse unique ID's and disable javascript into the smileys - using the double space.
$i = 1;
$text = preg_replace_callback('~(?:\s|&nbsp;)?<(img\ssrc="' . preg_quote($modSettings['smileys_url'], '~') . '/[^<>]+?/([^<>]+?)"\s*)[^<>]*?class="smiley" />~', create_function('$m', 'return \'<\' . ' . 'stripslashes(\'$1\') . \'alt="" title="" onresizestart="return false;" id="smiley_\' . ' . "\$" . 'i++ . \'_$2" style="padding: 0 3px 0 3px;" />\';'), $text);


Code: (.zip) [Select]

// Parse unique ID's and disable javascript into the smileys - using the double space.
$text = preg_replace_callback('~(?:\s|&nbsp;)?<(img\ssrc="' . preg_quote($modSettings['smileys_url'], '~') . '/[^<>]+?/([^<>]+?)"\s*)[^<>]*?class="smiley" />~', create_function('$m', 'static $i = 1; return \'<\' . ' . 'stripslashes($m[1]) . \'alt="" title="" onresizestart="return false;" id="smiley_\' . ' . "\$" . 'i++ . \'_\' . $m[2] . \'" style="padding: 0 3px 0 3px;" />\';'), $text);

QueryString.php (476)

Code: (.tar.gz) [Select]

$buffer = preg_replace_callback('~"' . preg_quote($scripturl, '/') . '\?((?:board|topic)=[^#"]+?)(#[^"]*?)?"~', create_function('global $scripturl; return \'"\' . $scripturl . \'/\' . strtr("$m[1]" . \'&;=\', \'//,\') . \'.html\' . (isset($m[2]) ? "$m[2]" : "");'), $buffer);


Code: (.zip) [Select]

$buffer = preg_replace_callback('~"' . preg_quote($scripturl, '/') . '\?((?:board|topic)=[^#"]+?)(#[^"]*?)?"~', create_function('$m', 'global $scripturl; return \'"\' . $scripturl . "/" . strtr("$m[1]", \'&;=\', \'//,\') . ".html" . (isset($m[2]) ? $m[2] : "") . \'"\';'), $buffer);

GL!

[Arantor]

Yeah, that's because that's the OLD 2.0.7 code, not the CURRENT 2.0.7 code (because 2.0.7 was withdrawn and re-released after issues came to light with insufficient testing)

[Oldiesmann]

Sorry about that! The tar.gz package has now been fixed. You can use the attached "fix" package to fix the issues without overwriting your files, which should allow you to upgrade to 2.0.8 properly.

Starting to look like a support thread after all...
