Hey

I installed this today. Have not tested it yet (no opportunity to) BUT I did do the update post counts which is where I was able to get the error before and it is now fixed. So seems to me you figured it out dude. I voted for you as mod of the month. You deserve it.

after installing the mod, I get error 500 when a user tries to register. The username is created, but e-mail is not dispatched and member isn't notified. Also when deleting a user form admincp I get error 500 as well. Disabling the product makes everything function normal. Any suggestions?

500 is an Internal Server Error. Which usually means a file permissions or .htaccess issue. You can check or have your server admin check the logs to see what they say regarding the Internal Server Error. Maybe your host can fix it for you. But befoe asking them, you should try to re-upload the files per the install documentation. Perhaps you are missing something or something was corrupted during your FTP session. Once uploaded make sure you have the proper permissions set and that the file is owned by the correct system user..

kinda off subject but i use glow host for all 4 of my forums and been with them 3 years plus. great service and great people for those looking for hosting. them knowing vbulletin is a big plus also

VIPER-MAN 09-25-2010 06:55 PM

Unfortunately, after installing the latest version (and upgrading to vb4.07) this breaks the user editing function after you ban a user and ask to include their posts to be deleted. If I try to edit any user via the control panel, I get a DB error. If I try to send a PW confirmation reminder, same thing ... database error. I disable the product and everything works normally.

Database error in vBulletin 4.0.7:

Invalid SQL:
DELETE FROM tfltm_post WHERE userid=4388);;

The userid is the banned user and his posts. Now, on any user editing function, this error is generated.

GlowHost.com 09-26-2010 11:30 AM

I have not tested 4.0.7 yest because it just came out, but really because I had not planned on it due to it being a maintenance release.

I generally don't update our forums unless there is a security release or major bug fix for reasons such as this. In other words I don't like introducing more bugs into my forums unless it is really important reason to upgrade, like a security release.

I will have to see if any others on 4.0.7 have this issue. That said, if any 4.0.7 users have the same issue please let me know and I will see about getting a fix out there.

atcspaul 09-27-2010 08:31 PM

after installing version v1.2.7 i went to log out to test things and got this message

Warning: require_once(includes/functions_ghsom.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/includes/class_dm_user.php(1853) : eval()'d code on line 3

after i uninstalled i was able to log out no problem. i am using the latest version vbulletin 4.0.7. i hope we can get this working with it

GlowHost.com 09-27-2010 08:43 PM

Paul, did you have this working before on an earlier version or just tried to install it now?

The first error says that you have not uploaded the files to the correct location or that they are corrupt. Please checkout the readme file and make sure you have uploaded everything correctly.

Since I see from a previous post, that you are a GlowHost customer we can probably handle this for you if you are not sure how to get the files where they need to be.

atcspaul 09-27-2010 08:50 PM

ya i need some help. all i did was upload the html file. guess i did it wrong let me see if i can figure it out. thank you for quick reply. gonna try again now. you all see why i like glow host. service is awesome.

atcspaul 09-27-2010 09:09 PM

ok not sure what i am doing. so i uploaded each file separate to my root from upload file which would be. this is my first try. i never did before

glowhostspamomatic.php in admin cp file
functions_gshom.php from includes fil
bitfield and cpnav files from the html folder

last but not least uploaded the product in admin panel and it still didnt work. got errors. i am sure i am doing something wrong but not sure what (:

GlowHost.com 09-27-2010 11:01 PM

Hi Paul,

It looks like one of the techs has your vBulletin admincp logins at our helpdesk.

He is going to do a fresh install of this mod on your 4x board.

GlowHost.com 09-27-2010 11:08 PM

Whoops, I spoke too soon. I see you didn't provide the logins...

My understanding of the ticket is that you want instructions on how to do this correctly yourself. I think its a good idea. Learning the basic principles is commendable.

I am eager to hear your report.

atcspaul 09-28-2010 12:09 AM

awesome we got it working with 4.0.7 and i tried most functions and everything works great. thank you glow host. just nominated this mod for motm. i tried the banning, editing threads, banning a member and unbanning and it all works fine. thank you for the great support glowhost. as you know i am an older gentleman with very limited computer skills but learning every day

atcspaul 09-28-2010 02:20 AM

i just installed by myself this time on vbulletin 3.8.3 forum :) no problems i can find. it actually stopped 2 registrations within the first 15 minutes it was installed. thanks for your help.

Alecsmith 09-28-2010 09:00 AM

excellent tool i am facing less problem with spammers after i installed this add on thanks :)

TeknoSounds 09-29-2010 12:44 AM

Greetings, I have found a bug.
When looking at the logs I came across this as a link:
Found in Akismet Database. Held for moderation:

When clicking it it doesn't redirect to the right location. The link points at: http://website.com/modcp/moderate.php?do=posts
vs
http://website.com/messageboard/modcp/moderate.php?do=posts

Looks like it was hardcoded vs trying to pull the bburl variable.

onehost 09-29-2010 12:59 AM

I do not say this offten, but I think this is one of the best spam mods you can
have on your forum, and if you do not use this, then you deserve the spam
you get :) and I do not even fully have it enabled. My forum has been up for
40+ days, and not one spammer bot has gotten past registeration. I see more
spam bots try, rather then real traffic...I wonder if i should just open a spam forum :)
Use this mod along with duplicate accounts, no proxy, and you cant go wrong.

GlowHost.com 09-29-2010 01:02 AM

Hi TeknoSounds,

Your are correct. It is already fixed in 2.0 along with a slew of other log fixes. Thank you for the report in any case. We will hopefully see you back here in a couple of weeks when 2.0 becomes public. :)

Using v1.2.7 with vb4.0.7.

Maintenance > Update Counters > Update User Titles and Ranks

Generates the error below.

Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent (output started at [path]/includes/adminfunctions.php:285) in [path]/includes/functions_ghsom.php on line 378

Hello, my vbstopforumspam have stop blocking spam registrations (Unverfied but allowed by policy) and i have seen from stopforumspam.com that you plugin is still supported. I decided to try it.

First of all I wanted to test to report spammer. I go to admincp - user profile and checked:
Remove user
Remove All Posts
Submit to StopForumSpam.com

Then I've got this error:
Quote:

Database error in vBulletin 4.0.5:

Invalid SQL:
DELETE FROM post WHERE userid=18432);;

MySQL Error : You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ')' at line 1
Error Number : 1064
As you can see there is syntax error. Now I've got this error everytime I try to post something new. How to deal with that?
In spite of the error the post is completed.


After I install your plugin I've got 2 logs with "Unverfied but allowed by policy" but after this it seems to start working because I've got:

I will be happy if in log there are all registration attempts. I will see.

Thanks.

GlowHost.com 09-30-2010 12:47 PM

Instead of submitting from the admin cP, use "delete posts as spam" in the moderation tools and it will take care of what you are trying to do. The options in admincp are deprecated and no longer available in 2.0 which will be released in beta in a week or so.

MyCTaK 09-30-2010 01:34 PM

Ok, I understand but can you tell me how to remove this query so I will no longer have database error screen?

Best!

GlowHost.com 09-30-2010 01:48 PM

What happens when you uncheck all the boxes?

I am putting up a version (hopefully the last one!) for the 1.x series.

1.2.8 should fix these problems for you guys and gals. I will have it up in about 2 minutes so by the time you are done reading this, it should be ready for you.

Remember, today is the last day to vote for this mod for mod of the month. It is still very close! Your vote counts.

lol, just installed the previous one. And a new one already. Updated. Thanks mate. This is a fantastic mod. Will see how it works, and nominate for sure if works!

BadgerDog 09-30-2010 09:35 PM

Updated to v1.28 by uploading files, then importing XML ....

Installed Products list under "GlowHost - Spam-O-Matic" still shows v1.27 ...

With all these small iterative updates, it would help if the change log indicated which files have changed and whether a new XML needs to be imported or not...

Regards,
Badger

GlowHost.com 09-30-2010 09:41 PM

"Updated to v1.28 by uploading files, then importing XML ...."

That is what needs to happen every time. If something changes, it will be in the readme file.

Ok, so the product installed still shows as 1.27 because?

Badger

GlowHost.com 09-30-2010 10:11 PM

Because line 6 of the xml file says this:

Code:

    <version>1.2.7</version>
You can change it there or in the product manager in vBulletin to say 1.2.8

We hadn't planned on making any more releases for 1.x so we made a hasty release to fix some minor annoyances that some users had.... and forgot to change the version number in the xml file it would seem.

It's probably not worth uploading another version to vbulletin.org to fix the typo since it was just released. If for some reason we make another 1.x release I will make sure it is updated but most of our efforts are in the important code for the upcoming 2.0

MyCTaK 10-01-2010 06:59 AM

Amazing mod! I was getting 50+ spam bot signups and 50+ spam posts a day before. Haven't had one creep through for 2 days now.

Strauss 10-03-2010 06:04 PM

once you download to site . does it work automatically or is there an on and off switch? sorry new to this thanks

joshskeety 10-04-2010 03:02 PM

Any Idea why all my RSS bots are being moderated even though their post count is WAY over the amount provided in the AdminCP??

I saw one post early on with the same problem, but the dev chalked it up to his problem, but If Im having the EXACT same problem, there has to be some sort of conflict.

Thanks,

I had the same problem and finally had to turn the moderated post function of this mod OFF to stop it from happening ... ;)

I cant tell you why. I requested admincp logins to anyone who is having this problem so I can have a look. If I cannot duplicate it, it can't be fixed.

If logins are not something you want to give, understandable but in that case I would need exact and extremely precise instructions on your RSS settings so that I can lug them into our test forum to see what the deal is.
