Profile Video is connecting for ever

Make sure the RMS works good.
Diddy
I have hired Rayz to fix the issue since I had it before as well on 6.1.4.
The RMS was Boonex RMS.
I will run my own RMS

You can check whether your RMS is working properly by the tester at http://www.boonex.com/rms.html

On Install I am getting permissions errors, even after changing all so that all options are green, on next step I get this error message in a red box:

Next files have inappropriate permissions:
ray/modules/shoutbox/xml/config.xml;
ray/modules/shoutbox/xml/langs.xml;
ray/modules/shoutbox/xml/main.xml;
ray/modules/shoutbox/xml/skins.xml;

Also these items dissappear from the permissions list.
Tried various permissions and notheing can get me past this glitch.

My installation is the same with dougbr2005, I just skip it!!!
AndreyP
Seems you just forgot set permissions to shoutbox.
Just because shoutbox files array always present in installation file (lines 381 - 384)

I uploaded all files and then went to upgrade.php and i get the following error

Error in adding language key

I have tried importing the new database and everything seems to work but it says i am still on 6.1.4 and i still have widgets which i thought had been removed.

Here is the fix! I was having the same problem and this took care of it.

Hi MEZLOH,
could you please repost the link, I get only to an error page

I face that into orca/groupsforum, the tiny-mse is not loading anymore. LOADING POST TOPIC PAGE... there it will be hangup.

Good to see a patch being worked on, well done. Big thumbs up here.

A couple of problems I found after upgrading to 6.1.5 from 6.1.4 are as follows:

1/ All contacts incorrectly show as 'online' in presence.

2/ Boonex Unity link showing in movie player and profile music player plugins. Replacing player.swf with 6.1.4 versions fixes issue.

I am happy to help test any bugfixes for these issues for the 6.1.6 release.

Regards.

DM.

I wonder if everybody else is noticing this link on the top of the music and video player.
kernelpaniker
I can confirm the same problem with Presence. All contacts show online.
grv
There is still a link on the music and video player...How can it be removed?

3/ Change all short tags to long tags - many hosts disable the short tags function and increasing compatibility is a good thing.

4/ Change the RSS feature used for aggregating forum posts to utilise either a local function call to get the RSS data or at worst case a relative path. The RSS issue that many experience (constantly spinning icon for forum posts) is due to WSP's disabling loop-backs. Again - this increases Dolphin compatibility and is both worthwhile and probably a relatively easy see more fix.
CALTRADE
I really like the long tags idea also. I find that the short tags are almost useless - there are too many compound words.
AndreyP
During changing sources we change these tags too.

"Member Login" link from header don't work.

Yes, indeed, I found some problems. I resolved.

## Can you save a file with newlines (KEY Langs) inside the ZIP file. because I find duplicates.

or lang-en.php (6.1.005 ou 006)

So far after upgrading, my admin panel still tells me I am on version 6.1.4
Diamax
I had showing the same version after upgrading.
AndreyP
LOL, current version filled in inc/header.inc.php file. Upgrade pack is changed sources. Header file not included in dolphin files, just because it generated by installation process. So you should change version manually. Corresponded remark was made in upgrade manual.

cPanel issue!!!

ok you can do 2 things (i would do both)
1. open the .zip file with winrar and get it to scan or use your Anti-Virus to scan the .zip file.
2. inform your host and ask the if they could upload the zip file for you then you can extract the files as needed

Hi Victor,

I haven't had time to test 6.1.5 to see if these changes have been made, but one of your "unsung heros" on the forums - "Okweb" - has done some enhancements and bug fixes that really improve Dolphin.

This one fixes the way alerts are sent on private messages, and in my opinion makes it work properly:
http://www.boonex.com/unity/forums/#topic/Email-alerts.htm

This make the search function much more logical:
http://www.boonex.com/unity/forums/#topic/Don-t-understand-how-Dolphin-search-functions-work.htm see more

I didn't use this one, but it allows upgrade from non-standard accounts:
http://www.boonex.com/unity/forums/#topic/Upgrade-from-non-standard-accounts.htm

Also, while not technically "a bug" it would be really nice if we had the option to use use TinyMCE in the profiles "DescriptionMe" field. There are mods that do that on the forums, but there are security issues that are not well understood, and it would be nice if you could supply this as a feature, and ensure that is is secure.

killerhaai

After upgrading from v6.1.4 to 6.1.5, i had some weird looking Admin login page, no link to the actuall Admin Panel (I coded that myself in), and other weird looking links showing in the admin panel and in the footer.
I decided to do a fresh install with 6.1.5
Now I cannot even complete the installation.
First in the instalation I get a message telling me to turn off "register_globals". Done that thru custom php.ini, then when I try to continue with the installation I get: "safe_mode see more is on, disable it".
The safe_mode on my hosting company it is off.
From that point there is no way I can continue with the installation. I installed the previous version very smooth, but this is going nowhere.

It seems dolphin needs some professional developers since 6.15 was supposed to 'fix' problems with 6.14; yes "every" version is an 'upgrade' but has more bugs than the version before it. 6.16 will probably be even more buggy than 6.15, given past boonex experiences. Why won't they ever just fix a certain version instead of ignoring it and moving on to a totally different version every time??? Can't they just admit that they don't know how to fix their own software?

Profile video doesn't seem to work as mentioned earlier. My RMS works fine with everything else.

Write permissions that show in the installer are buggy. Apparently it's worse on Windows but they showed wrong on perm-rollbacks with my Linux install too. I was able to skip that part and install was successful, but thought I would mention it.
CALTRADE
Would you be able to get rid of the directory name "orca" and just call it "forums" or something like that, since you are getting rid of orca anyway.
AndreyP
This realized in dolphin 7, But in current version you can just rename this 'orca' folder to 'forum' and change navigation menu links, nothing more.

I have a new installation of Dolphin which was not an upgrade from the previous version. My php.ini is configured correctly, in that:
register_globals is off
allow_url_include is off
get_magic_quotes_gpc is on

I am getting Cron messages sent to me from .../periodic/notifies.php falsely reporting that they are on, on and off respectively. Is this a bug?

In addition, I have several domains hosted on the same server, and having to turn off allow_url_include now means that one of my other sites see more doesn't display correctly :o(

However, as RMS does not appear to work with my web host (Host Gator) I'd like to know if anyone else who uses Host Gator has RMS working properly. If not, it seems I'll have 2 reasons to get my Dolphin site hosted elsewhere.
tyke
I dont know if you have been on the hostgator support forum recently (in the shared server private forums) there is a topic in there that states from hostgator staff that the dolphin software is not welcomed on their shared servers and you must go to hostgator dedicated servers. So if you are on the shared servers at HG, its probably best to find somewhere else.
Diddy
HostForWeb.com has all you need and an excellent support.
for 6.1.4 is even a 5min. install. They will add the new dolphin version when it is stable :-)

Enjoy and have fun!
adizagdon
Please fix this problem !

The instant messenger hangs on startup - just like the profile videos.

There is a javascript error that shows in IE
