Big problem after upgrade!!!!!!!

Your issue has nothing to do with Photopost at all. You have a bug in your vb2 forums. In vb the users password is encrypted with md5 as it always has been. Your vb2 forum has passwords being saved in plain text which is a big huge bug in your vb2 software and most likely a problem with some hack you have.

I have altered our vb2 file to work with your photopost but I highly suggest you investigate your problem with vb2 immediately as cookie passwords everything is being saved plain text passwords

When I click on the admin link to go to the admin CP it gives this error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_LNUMBER in /home/ggadmin/public_html/gallery/adm-main.php on line 136

Is this connected to what you fixed / the same problem? This is the first time I've been able to login as the admin.

Please let me know. Thank you!

I would say you need to upload a new file. Has no connection to what I altered for you.

[Johnny Doomo]

Uploaded the file again and it still has the same problem. It's in the main iframe, but the side iframe (admin CP menu) shows up.

Also, when I click the "Layout Options" options in the menu it shows this above the main iframe page:

Warning: opendir(templates): failed to open dir: No such file or directory in /home/ggadmin/public_html/gallery/adm-misc.php on line 1312

Warning: readdir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in /home/ggadmin/public_html/gallery/adm-misc.php on line 1316

Warning: closedir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in /home/ggadmin/public_html/gallery/adm-misc.php on line 1325

It also shows that when I click "All Options" as well since "Layout Options" is part of "All Options". It doesn't show it on any of the other option pages though.

Also, under "Global Options" the "Gallery Open?" setting off to the right displays a dropdown box that has a yes and no in it and is set to yes, but right below the text that reads "Yes for Open, No for Closed" on the left it has a drop down box that says open and closed and it's defaulted to closed. Does this have something to do with the site being set to closed before I upgraded? I believe people are able to access the site so I don't think it's closed right now.

It looks like all the other Admin CP pages are working (at least displaying correctly.)

Any ideas on how to fix these problems?

[Chuck S]

Make sure your downloading the latest download.

[Johnny Doomo]

Yep, latest build, same problems.

This is line 136 and there is no parse error in adm-main.php that I see

<td class=\"{$Style['tddetails']}\" align=\"center\" width=\"50%\" colspan=\"2\">Current Version</td>

Now adm-misc.php this line 1307

$dir_name = "templates";

should be

$dir_name = "{$Globals['TMPL_PATH']}";

[Johnny Doomo]

The $dir_name = "{$Globals['TMPL_PATH"}"; (though it was slightly messed up, I fixed it ($dir_name = "{$Globals['TMPL_PATH']}" and all is working there.

As far as the:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_LNUMBER in /home/ggadmin/public_html/gallery/adm-main.php on line 136

error I don't even know what that means, but the code on line 136 does look fine to me. (not that I really know )

Strange thing is, I remarked that line and even tried removing it, but the error stayed exactly the same.

What else can I do?

[Chuck S]

Well I would suggest you delete that file from your server and reupload from a clean distribution you just downloaded from our members area. Since there is not a parse error in the adm-main.php file I cant really suggest anything but to replace it.

[Johnny Doomo]

I downloaded and copied the adm-index.php to my server. It appears that fixed the problem.

I was checking the edit category pages and when I am on the edit pages for any category I was getting these errors at the top of the pages:

Warning: opendir(templates): failed to open dir: No such file or directory in /home/ggadmin/public_html/gallery/adm-cats.php on line 433

Warning: readdir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in /home/ggadmin/public_html/gallery/adm-cats.php on line 437

Warning: closedir(): supplied argument is not a valid Directory resource in /home/ggadmin/public_html/gallery/adm-cats.php on line 446

I tried uploading a new adm-cats.php but that didn't work this time. Here's the info thats on those lines:

433: $dir = opendir($dir_name);

437: while ($file_name = readdir($dir)) {

446: closedir($dir);

When I was about to report this I noticed that line 432 was:

$dir_name = "templates";

So I changed it to: $dir_name = "{$Globals['TMPL_PATH']}";

Looks like in 5.0.3 the template path isn't set to "{$Globals['TMPL_PATH']}" or something with upgrading a board to 5.0.3 prevented it from changing it to that. Anyway, it looks like everything is working right now.

I found out why the dates weren't showing. Appearantly after the update the date format readout was cleared and since it was empty it didn't show dates on any showgallery or showphoto pages. So that's resolved too.

Thanks for all your help omegatron. I can be a b|tch sometimes, but this is my baby. I will probably have more questions as I spend the next few days tweaking my 5.0.3 install changing colors and general appearance.

Can you please make sure to delete my security info I sent to you. (Hey I'm paranoid what can I say.)

If you don't mind my asking, does 5.0.3 support UNLIMITED (yes I mean unlimited) categories? It was what forced me to upgrade so I would be interested in knowing. I do not consider ~65000 or some max limit of some var that seems super high to some people, I would like to truly know if there is a limit, even if it's in the millions.

Thanks again for all yer help Omegatron.

[Chuck S]

There is no limitations in our code. Any limitations on anything would be in mysql.

[Johnny Doomo]

OK Thanks.
