SMF 1.0.4 released

[xtremecruiser]

How about a list of Mods that are ok or not ok for the Update.
I have updated for the last year and never had any issues with mods ( and I Like Mods )
This upgrade makes me uneasy.

[[Unknown]]

I upgraded like I always do.  Downloaded the 'smf_1-0-4_update.zip', uploaded the unpacked files to my webserver, and ran upgrade.php

That way removes *all* of your installled mods.  You'll need to fix your theme files now, or reinstall the mod.

DDT, try uninstalling it, uninstalling Spam-me-not, reinstalling it, and then trying to install Spam-me-not again.

Mods that are not okay:
Faster Parsecode
Spam-me-not
Any mod that adds custom bbc (possibly okay, possibly not.)

Mods that are okay:
Everything else.

I m upgrading form 1.03 hope it will work fine...

[ShawnX]

I got it fixed!!

Good thing I'm a digital packrat lol.

I fixed it by downgrading to 1.0.3

I was able to do this because I moved my forums from my home webserver to a hosted webserver a few weeks ago.  Well I never deleted the old forum on my web server. 

I just uploaded everything from my home webserver overwritting the files on my hosted server. Ran 'repair_settings.php' and it works like a charm!

I'll try upgrading to 1.0.4 again after uninstalling all my mods.

Big Problem
No "Uninstaller" for Spam-me-not so all I could do is delete all the files, restore a 1.03 from backup, then try the upgrade again. Same results. I have no idea how to get rid of Spam-Me-Not, it had a file labeled uninstaller but when tried through unuinstall packages it gave message no uninstaller for this mod...
Any ideas what to try now?

Yes, I ran into some permissions problems - do all directories need to be writable?

same for me i would like to know which need to be writable so i can chmod them?
thanks

Noticed that the author of Spam Me Not hasn't been on the forums since March so if anybody has any ideas on how to cleanly remove it I would really appreciate it.

[Kindred]

damn.....   I installed this cleanly on two forums... the third has the [ img] problem though...   DO we have any idea what's causing that problem?

[[Unknown]]

How do I use chmod?
Why chmod 777 is NOT a security risk

If in doubt, Sources and the main directory of the forum.

You can upload all of the files from the "upgrade" zip file, and then reinstall your old mods.

What mods?

-[Unknown]

[Kindred]

a bunch...  none of which SHOULD have affected the upgrade...   except for spam-me-not...   and I worked around that in the other forums too...
(one line, the email change in subs.php is the spam-me-not failure. The upgrade works if you have everything except for that one line changed.)

I'm not exactly sure which line was causing the problem...  but I went through subs.php by hand and confirmed all the code changes in that file by repasting the code that needed to be in there... (except for the spam-me-not line, which I left as is)

This appears to have fixed the [ img] problem...

[[Unknown]]

Spam-me-not has been identified as causing problems.

-[Unknown]

[Kindred]

yeah... unfortunately, Spam-me-not does not uninstall easily...

but I have the spam-me-not line in subs.php unchanged and the forum now works properly... so I am assuming that at leats one other piece of code failed to install correctly....  probably the bit that moved the [img ] call up to the top of the function rather than after the quote section...

[groovie]

hello,

well i've JUST got:

- smf bridged to mambo
- coppermine gallery bridged to smf

so i'm a bit nervous about doing the upgrade. 

are there any foreseeable problems when upgrading in these circumstances?

the only smf mod i am using is the login mod i guess.

any responses appreciated, thanks


edit: to make things easier to follow groovie's probs are now in the bridge area here - http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=38154.msg279041#msg279041

[[Unknown]]

This should not affect the bridge in any way...

-[Unknown]

[Kindred]

the smf-mambo bridge does not modify anything that is checked/updated in this upgrade.

As alwasy... backup your site...  but there should be no trouble at all doing this...
(although you may want to drop out of the bridge into the forum alone to do the updgrade, since mambo still has some issues with directory and file permissions)

Sorry to be so dumb but there are several subs files and I've looked until I'm cross-eyed. Can you narrow down where to find that line a little bit.
If I understand you I can save it, upgrade, find the changed line and replace with the original, and all will work?
Thanks for the help...I need it...4+ hours & counting.

[pure]

both the forum dir and sources are 777 but i still get "Some of the files this package needs to modify are not writable. This needs to be changed by logging into FTP and chmoding the files."

[[Unknown]]

Are the actual files it needs to modify also 777?

It should list them all for you.
