UBB.Developers Forums UBB.threads 6 Bug Reports posting bug 5.1.6

I just downloaded 5.1.6 today and there is an error in addpost.php, on line 149 it says:
badnames = file ("$config[phpurl]/filters/badnames");
this needs to be
badnames = file ("$config[path]/filters/badnames");

that not all of the changes....

also need to make changes in lines 124,517 and 645

Was this not working for you. In php you can specify a path or an url to grab a file, so phpurl should work. The reason this was changed is path was causing some problems on some servers with the fileopen because their doc root was already getting prepended to the front of the path.

it was sensoring everything....every word was causing a [censored]

i installed it by copying only the files in 5.1.6 that had changed after i had done a fresh install of 5.1.5 two weeks ago.

Just for information, the 5.1.6 PHP version (so => phpurl) works fine on my server (Platform: MacOS X Server).

I've used the new changed version with phpurl on both types of configurations:

1) autoprepend the path
2) no autoprepend of the path

and in both instances phpurl works. I would suggest you check your config file to make sure your path to wwwthreads is set correctly. An incorrect path would result in the behavior you're seeing.

// Url to the main WWWThreads php install
$config['phpurl'] = "http://www.yourdomain.com/path/to/wwwthreads";

And be sure to see whether or not your path has a trailing slash, that too could be a problem.

I get :
Warning: file("http://www.mydomain.com/php/filters/badnames") - Success in /home/httpd/html/php/addpost.php on line 149

Warning: Variable passed to each() is not an array or object in /home/httpd/html/php/addpost.php on line 150

when I preview my new post, and then if I go ahead and continue, I get teh censor tags everywhere.

Just to add to what Zoran said, and to comment on the post before him, our url is exactly the way it should be, and the way you have said it should be.

We can't open our php forum until we know a fix for this! :(

Ok, it looks like I may have to revert to the old way of doing this, or make a config option or something. What you can do for the meantime is edit your addpost.php, lines 124, 149, 517 and 645 you will see where it says $config[phpurl]. Change these to $config[path] and you should be ok.

I would vote for a config option. It would be best for cross-compatability between various systems.
