[Split] Problems with RC6 / Release of RC7

[Tripp]

I still can't make posts on my forum. Boooo. I think this is the most trouble I've had from any of the RC's.

The submitted form was invalid. Try submitting again.

Could this be due to my template?

did you read the start of this topic??? If the template is not up to date then that is the error you will get

What? So I just download the auto-updater and run it?

Yes, it updates your database if I'm correct.

And thanks for the answer. When I got my original errors I just scanned the beginning and none of it, at the time, pertained to me.

More than one issue was covered if you are using a custom template you need to do the following to it

To make a custom style compatible with RC6
FIND:

Code: Select all

</form>

REPLACE

Code: Select all

{S_FORM_TOKEN}</form>

And to make sure users can login to the ACP:

Find:

Code: Select all

<dt><label for="username">{L_USERNAME}:</label></dt>
<dd><input type="text" tabindex="1" name="username" id="username" size="25" value="{USERNAME}" class="inputbox autowidth" /></dd>      

Replace with:

Code: Select all

<dt><label for="{USERNAME_CREDENTIAL}">{L_USERNAME}:</label></dt>
<dd><input type="text" tabindex="1" name="{USERNAME_CREDENTIAL}" id="{USERNAME_CREDENTIAL}" size="25" value="{USERNAME}" class="inputbox autowidth" /></dd>      

Find:

Code: Select all

<dt><label for="password">{L_PASSWORD}:</label></dt>
<dd><input type="password" tabindex="2" id="password" name="password" size="25" class="inputbox autowidth" /></dd>      

Replace with:

Code: Select all

<dt><label for="{PASSWORD_CREDENTIAL}">{L_PASSWORD}:</label></dt>
<dd><input type="password" tabindex="2" id="{PASSWORD_CREDENTIAL}" name="{PASSWORD_CREDENTIAL}" size="25" class="inputbox autowidth" /></dd>

If your forum is modified you are still going to have to use the patch or auto updater which means doing the RC5-RC6 update later on and then the RC7 update and etc.....(assuming there is more RC releases) My honest opinion is you would be better biting the bullet and getting it updated now

Sorry, Im just not very good at all this php stuff and a lot of what is even posted in this thread is a bit confusing as to what is even being talked about.
Basically I know how to install the software by following the instructions, how to set up the subdomain and DB by doing the same. I dont know much about how to do all this code change stuff at all.

When you say patch, does this mean I shouldnt be doing what I did from RC4 to RC5 which was basically just overwriting everything except the config file with the newer version, but instead use the patch download?

Sorry, again....its just that, as I said, this is a bit out of my department here and Im hoping to do all this at one point in time instead of spending the rest of the day today and possibly tomorrow doing it, then having to do it again, as you say, possibly with the next release as well.

Karlsemple, do you know how I could create the t.template_id in field list because that is what is reported missing, so could you give me a query to run in order to have this?

When you snip .....

Did you have any modifications installed? If not and you are also using prosilver just replace all the files with fresh RC6 ones. This should only be done however if using the the prosilver template and an unmodified board

Yes, quite a few. Vista, Probl@ck, Invander, Pro_Vision_green2, however I am using Prosilver and so is everyone else except one which is using Probl@ck.

All I have extra is a style called 'Arrow' but Im thinking (hoping) that I can delete it completely and go back to PROsilver, save the database, and then see if I can update to RC6....what do you think?

When I just went to run the automatic updater it gave me this message :

SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

...sorry, quoted instead of edit

As I have no idea what style id's they all had your best bet would be to use the query I agve you earlier to recreate the style_template tables

[The_Descendant]

I ran that a few times and it says :

INSERT INTO `phpbb_styles_template` ( `template_id` , `template_name` , `template_copyright` , `template_path` , `bbcode_bitfield` , `template_storedb` )
VALUES ( 1, 0x70726f73696c766572, 0xc2a92070687042422047726f7570, 0x70726f73696c766572, 0x6c4e673d, 1 ) ;

MySQL said: Documentation
#1054 - Unknown column 'template_id' in 'field list'

Can I create the 'template_id' in 'field list'?
