1.3.1 Distro - broken

Post by LazyBadger »

There are 2 big problems with dowloadable archives
1. Biggest - all *.php files ended with smth. ugly instead of php-closing tag, f.e
serendipity\index.php

Code: Select all

if ($global_debug) {
    /* TODO: Remove (hide) this debug */
...
}

/* vim: set sts=4 ts=4 expandtab : */ 
2. Ugly - In all Tar'ed archives empty files (under Windows) after extraction have size of 15MB *each*

Please, create good version or - fix my broken hands

Hi!

1. PHP closing tags are optional. This is fine, there is no problem!

2. This seems to be a problem of your extracting utility. Try to use 7-Zip, I get no problems with that here.

Well, maybe... But I got 3 errors about "some problem in line 0" only, when tried to run install only (yes, all was uploaded fine, I checked it twice). I'll try to repeat all process from scratch now

OK, mea culpa, not yours. Fine

Hi!

A "line 0" problem relates to PHP core code, usually a missing extension. Make sure your PHP Session module is loaded!

HTH,

Just to note: "Open/Close door" method works fine... I killed all files, re-upload from same source - and all OK (for me, as I see)
