Perhaps you might consider requesting help a little more politely.

Who's Online is still a beta hack, it's still being worked on as we speak, please be patient and refrain from swearing.

OK. After adding line by line code to see where the error appeared, it appears when the following code is put into ultimatebb.cgi

###
### FIND:
###

my $cookie = cookie(-name=> "ubber$vars_config{Cookie_Number}", -value=> [$in{username}, $in{password}, $pubname, $dp, $profile_number], -path=> '/', -expires=> '+2y');

###
### REPLACE with:
###

undef($whos_online_invisible);
$whos_online_invisible = "hideme" if ($in{whos_online_invisible});
my $cookie = cookie(-name=> "ubber$vars_config{Cookie_Number}", -value=> [$in{username}, $in{password}, $pubname, $dp, $profile_number, $whos_online_invisible], -path=> '/', -expires=> '+2y');

and the remainder of pt1
###
### FIND:

if ($ubb eq '') {

undef (@whos_online_forum); undef ($name_of_forum); undef ($whos_online_exact_path);

if ($in{f}) {
@whos_online_forum = &GetForumRecord($in{f});
$whos_online_name_of_forum = $whos_online_forum[1];
if ($in{t}) {
$whos_online_exact_path = "Forum$in{f}";
if ($whos_online_forum[6] =~ /private/ig) {
$who_online_subject = "(Private Topic)";
} else {
@whos_online_this_topic = &OpenTopic("$in{t}", "$in{f}");
@whos_online_stats = split(/||/, $whos_online_this_topic[0]);
$who_online_subject = $whos_online_stats[4];
undef (@whos_online_forum); undef ($whos_online_exact_path);
undef (@this_topic); undef (@whos_online_stats);
}
} # end $in{t}
} # end $in{f}

if ($ubb eq '') {
&WriteUserSession("$vars_wordlets_mods{whos_online_viewing} Main Page");

###
### FIND:
###

if ($ubb eq 'forum') {

###
### ADD BELOW:

I wish I had 6.3 wink

The error is misleading... if there's an error in ANY of the code you applied, it will still appear as from ultimatebb.cgi ... I'm afraid I can't help you much more than telling you to re-apply the whole thing. frown It definately works!

You don't have a multitude of other hacks installed that could possibly interfere, do you?

No, I definately haven't tested it with 6.3
It definately works happily with 6.03 however.

Are the errors you're getting - "ultimatebb.cgi aborted due to compilation errors." ????

because I've had the same on 6.03 and I'm pretty sure my server doesn't run mod_perl smirk

It's a strange one smile

Apparantly a few others have had this error if ya read the most recent of Whose Online topics. As of yet no fix has been found.

Hmmm I'm off to redo the hack again hehehe smile

Dont bother hacking it coz i have redone it about 10 times & i still get compilation error. I did clean installation FYI. I hacked into 6.02 and it works fine thus i'm very sure i did it correctly. A lot of people got it working though - maybe due to different server environment.

I've been down the same road, definitely a "no-go" with 6.03. Wasted a whole Sunday with it too!
But I am patient :rolleyes:

FWIW, we've had problems SINCE installing 6.03 that we didn't have with 6.02 or 6.01 or 6.00. Mainly, our template association stopped working--and it WAS already working great with 6.02--it just stopped working with 6.03 (it's not a hack of course but requires some coordination within the ubb I take it.)

Me thinks the boys at infopoop goofed up something with 6.03! Just my never humble little opinion. laugh

Basically, your forum summary template must be the same as your transition page template
