vb.org Archive - Major Additions - ibProArcade

Aceman, I had the same exact issue that I discovered about 2 weeks ago. And I discovered when messing with the arcade, but after further investigation, found out it had nothing to do with the arcade. Its the way your server is setup and so was mine.

Alright, its the way your server is setup and you need to have your Admin of your server correct this issue.

Have them log into your account with SSH and have them run the following command:

Code:

chown -R admin123:admin123 *

Admin123 being your account. This will run through ALL your files and straighten out your server so all permissions/ownership our yours and not Apache's. This issue tends to arise when the server is NOT in High Security mode. I can't help anymore than this cuz I didn't do it, I just know that's how they fixed it on my server. Discovered this issue when I was trying to back my site up to leave that server to go to a new host.

Good luck and hope that helps. Should be enough for you to give to your server admin and send them down the right road to fix this issue.

That is how he does it now and it only works on what is there then. When a new file is untarred on the server, it gets set to apache ownership again.

I had the same problem today. I went in the admin for arcade, score settings and just clicked the start button for update league and it was all back.

If you setup a virtualhost, then only that host gets it's files written out by the user you specify. Others on the system aren't changed, they'll still be written out by the user who Apache is specified to run under.

Hi, Firstly, I would just like to say that my forum members and I love this hack. :)

However, on eor two have mentioned that when playing pacman after 10 mins or so they appear to be logged out of the forum and therefore their highscores are not recorded. The thing is not everyone is effected by this. I am sure it's not the hack but something else, do you have any ideas please?

Thanks

Ben

I've never experienced that problem from my users, but all of them click the Remember Me option when logging in, or at least I think they do. I have a couple of games that take upwards to 30 minutes to an hour to play, and no one's complained about being logged out.

Thank you guys for the great response :D

I reported straight back that they should make sure that the click "remember me" option and I have just found out that, that has done the trick. :thumb:

Thanx for your help/support, tis much appreciated :)

Are there any other known skins for the arcade? I don't like all the high scores on the skin.

I've tried to install the skin, but I can't make the changes reccomended in the install file. The files it says to change are marked in orange because they are customized in my style. How do I get around this?

Thanks...
