It all works fine except when you upload an image it does not display it. Instead I get a red X. Looking at the database the row is there BUT the size of the "data" field is 0. Any ideas? Please?

I managed to make this work so here is how if anyone else runs into the same problem:

My guess was that uploads were failining due to the fact that my service provider is using SAFE_MODE. Looking at the file upload code of vbulletin I did the following changes to vbgarage.php:

Look for

$name = $_FILES['src']['name'];
$data = addslashes(fread(fopen($_FILES['src']['tmp_name'], "r"), filesize($_FILES['src']['tmp_name'])));
$type = $_FILES['src']['type'];

and replace with

// make up a temporary name
$tmp_name = 'vbupload' . substr(TIMENOW, -4);

// check file exists on server
if ($vboptions['safeupload'])
{
$path = $vboptions['tmppath'] . "/$tmp_name";
if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['src']['tmp_name'], $path) AND file_exists($path))
{
$filename = $path;
}
}
else if (file_exists($upload))
{
$filename = $_FILES['src']['tmp_name'] ;
}

$name = $_FILES['src']['name'];
$data = addslashes(fread(fopen($filename, "r"), filesize($filename)));
$type = $_FILES['src']['type'];

Now... this worked with my server that uses SAFE_MODE. I am not sure it will work if SAFE_MODE is not used, I haven't tried it!

Try looking here; https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=640

It wouldn't take much effort to change the field names, etc.

I apologise to bump, but this is so frustrating to have to keep navigating back through the board just to get back to the page you was on, it really does need a redirect after submit has been pressed just the same way it would redirect if you posted to a thread, please someone help. with 3500 budding members wanting to post and edit the garage, its rateher annoying not being able to have the knowledge to make the fix on my own. i tried to fix this and broke the board all repaired now though)

Please help if you can.

If you PM me login information for your board, with access to the hack, I'll see what I can do.

I've never heard of this kind of bug before, as, usually, when you hit the submit button, you're taken back to the "Edit Garage" page.

Yup. That's how it works for me too. Sounds like someone did some "fixing" that created this problem...

Is there a way to have more than one car per user?

[r6xual]

Looks like everything went well as far as the install goes, however when i go to edit the vbgarage in the User CP, i am unable to save the info. After i click on submit i get the following error

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/gpf/public_html/forums/includes/init.php:866) in /home/gpf/public_html/forums/vbgarage.php on line 183

Anyone have an idea why this is happening?

also now when i try and log out i get the following error

Unable to add cookies, header already sent. File: /home/gpf/public_html/forums/includes/init.php Line: 866

Arrrrrg.

That is supposed to be available in the next version

[Zilvia]

I just installed vB Garage on two of my forums http://www.zilvia.net and http://www.boostaholic.org and now I cannot logout, when I try I get this error "Could not find phrase 'logout_missing_userid'."

I know in one of the last steps it asks you to update any phrase to update the system.

Any help?

You most likely have whitespace before or after php tags. ie. before <?php or after ?>.

when is the new version coming out? update planned yet??

[Odoin]

Version 3.20 is done and working on the developers site... He asked a few weeks ago about someone making a upgrade script for the DB and I said I would. He said he would send me the files but I have not gotten anything... I hope this version comes out very soon as well .
