Help! I've updated my forum but my skins wont correspond..

[GreigScott]

Right I updated to 3.7.3 last night. & my skins wont save cause i made them in 3.7.2,
this comes up:


Required variables have gone missing and execution can not continue. Please try again.

This error can sometimes occur as a result of Suhosin / Hardened PHP being installed on your server. If you know that you have Suhosin running and you have access to the PHP configuration, try increasing the value of the following variables:

* php_value suhosin.post.max_vars
* php_value suhosin.request.max_vars


how do i sort it.

Try adding these lines to .htaccess in your forum directory:

php_flag suhosin.cookie.encrypt Off
php_value suhosin.request.max_vars 2048
php_value suhosin.post.max_vars 2048

theres nothing in the file atm and when i add to the .htccess in the public_html folder a error comes up on everything.

I'm guessing your getting a 500 internal server error, not all servers are configured to allow php flags/values in a htaccess file.

Use this in the htaccess file:

suhosin.cookie.encrypt Off
suhosin.request.max_vars 2048
suhosin.post.max_vars 2048

OR

Create a php.ini file and put it in the required directory:

php_flag suhosin.cookie.encrypt Off
php_value suhosin.request.max_vars 2048
php_value suhosin.post.max_vars 2048

The 1st one didn't work in .htaccess
and the 2nd one takes no offect
(i put a new file called php.ini in public_html)

If neither option above works, then you need to contact your host and have them check the log files to find out what error is causing the issue when you try to save the "skins". They will have to modify the server to allow what is needed.

I am my host..

If you are your own host, then you should try modifying the actual php.ini with the above lines. You should also check your error_logs.

[snakes1100]

1. ssh into the server as root

2. find / -name php.ini -print

3. edit php.ini (ie... nano /etc/php.ini)

4. scroll to the bottom of the file and paste in the following:
suhosin.cookie.encrypt Off
suhosin.request.max_vars 2048
suhosin.post.max_vars 2048

5. exit and save

6. /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd restart
