Site is working once again

[WebGuy]

Some server settings were updated yesterday through normal upgrades and our forum script didn't like it one bit. I wasn't aware, but this older VB can not run with registerglobals turned off. (it's a server thing) anyway, we need it off for security reasons and the site wasn't able to run properly. I didn't even notice until I got a phone call. I just got home from work and I modified our code with a snippet of the newer VB code so it's able to run. Sorry for the confusion. please let me know if there are any other issues.

[WebGuy]

well, I can see the time is way off

[WebGuy]

ok, thats better. I had to do a very wierd fix but at least it worked

[Ed Bonk]

Thanks for fixing the problem. I appreciate your time and efforts.

I order the upgrade and sent you three e-mails from Jelsoft Enterprises. We will own the license for $xxx and I purchased the first time installation for $xxx ( I had no choice but to purchase this). The total was $xxx.

When you are ready I will send out a global e-mail as well as put a post on the web site to have everybody save their signatures, pictures, etc. before you implement the upgrade.

Hey WebGuy - thanks for all the hard work. Just an FYI, when I click "MARK ALL FORUMS READ", I get kicked to the Password Recovery Form. Also, if I click on "Get More" of the smiles, a blank screen appears.

Again, thanks for all the effort.

I can't get into "Edit Profile" or "Options". It takes me to the screen that requests my password be changed (seems it's happening all over the site). I also can't get into the "Moderator CP", it says I'm not logged in and it won't accept my password.

[WebGuy]

you guys just need to reresh each page and make sure you log in. you are seeing cached pages of the broken pages. they all work now, I just checked.

except for the smilie window?!!?

[C5pilot]

We're logged in (or we wouldn't be able to post). I can download the gascap, it says I'm a moderator, and I refreshed all my pages. I then tried to re-login, and it brings me to the password recovery page just like the others. I tried another browser and it goes immediately to the password recovery page as soon as I try to login.

Frankly, I'm afraid to reset my password in fear I won't be able to get logged back in at all. Please look again or better yet, get us upgraded because you'll probably have a whole host of other issues to deal with instead. Thanks.

I'm having the same problem with my getting into my profile. I'm on the site so I'm logged on.

I also notice the view conter is showing a high number of hits with some posts, like in the thousands.

[WebGuy]

ah, I see yoiu can go into the usercp but not edit options. well, we're upgrading to vb3 now anyway.

[WebGuy]

OK, I lifted some more code from the new VB to get member.php working. it handles logging in/out, user cp options/settings

still have to see whats wrong with smilies

[WebGuy]

ok, I fixed misc.php by once again stealing some code

it handles get more smilies and the FAQ

[WebGuy]

ok , so we have some upload issues as well
