I think we've seen this before.

Two possibilities:

a) Caused by php running out of memory, often because the site has a whole series of hacks overloaded onto vbulletin.
b) Caused by the php.ini open_basedir being set and the new admin settings are in conflict with the part of the web directory tree that php has access to.

If one of these is the case, it's easy enough to fix - am happy to take a look at your site if you want - will need an account with admin privs.

Just solved my problem by removing the database entries and re uploading the product file, all looks ok apart from a small problem.

Which is.........

If I create a category and within this category I create a forum thats linked to the local_links.php file. As soon as I click the forum it takes me back to the forums main page and not showing me the contents of the forum.

Or am I doing something wrong?

I took a look at your site, and made a small modification to the webthumbs addin, so that it cannot get stuck in a loop.

I created a test category and put five new entries in it, all of which now work fine.

Let me know if you still have problems.

I'm having some difficulty uploading some attachments. Didn't really ever try to do this and did some moderations to the board and found I can't. Deleated the mods in hope to fix this issue but still have the same problem. Every time I try to upload certain file types, for example .zip or .mpg I then get

Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

( no error message or anything else..just straight to the page )

Although jpg seems to work fine. Any ideas on what this could be? I have double checked the MIME settings, set permissions for usergroups and while viewing other threads to troubleshoot myself I have attempted to run a upload dianostic which took me to the exact same page.

Not sure if there's some .php file that I can reupload from VB before I made changes. Any help is appreciated.

Version 3.6.7
Mods I Installed were Downloads II and Links and Download Manager
Tried with the hooks on and off.
In 'file suspect' diagnostics, doesn't report any customized files. Only thing different was

.includes
functions_forumlist.php (states: file does not contain expected contents)

As far as I know all users...since we really don't have too many users....just other Admin and I are using forum at this point in time.
Happens in Firefox as well.
All styles were always set to no parent.
Attachments are stored in database.

Tried working on all of these possible scenarios but still no luck and it only seems to be on new attachment files that we manually add or fix.
:confused:

This is a general problem with vb? Not specifically with LDM?

Are you sure that it's certain file types, and not files bigger than a certain size? If it's big files, then the problem will be caused by the upload settings in your php.ini.

Beautifully, now everything functions to thanks again to 100 per cent.

Yes i'm sure it's the file types.
I tried with a zipped small text document and it still wouldn't work.
I can upload a large pdf file no problem or text document without fail.

I was on Vbulletin.com and they suggested I try over here to see if anyone else had this problem with this mod...so here I am.

Any other ideas or suggestions?

Thank you.

If you like, send me a PM with site details and an admin account (full access to the vb admincp) - am happy to take a quick look. I guess it will turn out to be something with the server settings.

PM sent... thanks

Hi Andrew, this is such a great add-on, thank you again for putting it together.

I just have a couple of questions. I've looked through the instructions and searched through this thread but can't seem to find the answer.

Popular Entries During Last (so many) days - where do I go to make it say 7 or 14 days. I haven't got it up and running on my forum yet so that my members are using it, but everytime I look at it, it just says Popular Entries During Last 0 days. How does that work.

Also, is there a way to only allow one category to be selected when a user submits a link. I don't want my members posting under more than one category. I have looked in the user permissions and in the settings and I can't see where I can only allow one category selection. Is this able to be done?

Thanks again,

Clancy
