Hi,
thanks for the news.
I got one more question. Where can i download the Adfree 6.1.2 Version? As i see you only provide the link for the patch.
Is the new version updated on your products link?

Just made the update a few minutes ago on a fresh installation of Dolphin 6.1.1 but now I have a problem with the licenses.

After adding the license codes, I still have a powered by banner at the forum and only there. Th license key is only a few weeks old and is shown as active until 2009.

Mail is already out, hope you could have a look at that problem.
LeonidS
Try to re-enter to admin panel again. Waiting your replay to your requests also.

Thanks for the update.
My current version is 6.1.0.
Can you please confirm if this 6.1.2 patch is all that is needed or do I also need to apply the patch 6.1.0 - 6.1.1?

Regards
Paul
LeonidS
Yes, in this case you should apply 2 patches - 6.1.1 and 6.1.2.

-= Dolphin Upgrade Pack =-


Release date: 17.06.08
Source version: 6.0
Destination version: 6.1.2
Installed version: 6.1.1

Beginning upgrade.

Error: Version installed is incorrect. Cannot continue the upgrade
LeonidS
Are you sure that you were trying to apply patch, not upgrade pack ? Because patch hasn't similar checking.
SergeyZ
Hello dolphin_jay!

You tried to apply "6.0.5 to 6.1.2" upgrade package to your 6.1.1 version. It is incorrect. You should take another package - "6.1.1 to 6.1.2" patch.

Good luck.

I have error in orca :

Warning: fopen(/home/rela2/public_html/orca/conf/params.conf) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/rela2/public_html/orca/inc/util.inc.php on line 263

I upgrade 6.005 to 6.1.2
in this folder not have any file (orca/conf)

I try too compile orca but have this error :
language file compilation have ben failed

Do you can help me ?

http://www.rela2.senior.eti.br
LeonidS
Try to change permissions to this file to 666 and recompile Orca language again.
SergeyZ
Hello rogerbr9999!

Probably you should set permissions of /home/rela2/public_html/orca/conf/params.conf to 666.
Maybe you didn't set permissions before running upgrade script (for web version).

Best regards.
rogerbr9999
thanks friends, I not set permission 777 to folder classes and conf before install ...

Now I have only problem in MENUS in top if I click in articles
I have this mensage :

profile not available for view !!!

and in featured members not show the photos ...
I will try to put delete users featured and put
dolphin_jay
never mind i just need to look better sometimes...
annabel
There's 1 thing I don't understand. In folder 'plugins' there's changes we have to upload.

Then in the instructions is said to remove the folder PLUGINS/TINY_MCE ???

I think I'll better leave it there until further notice ...
Stuart038
I too was also very nervous about deleting the plugins/tiny_mce folder and replacing it with the updated folder... but it worked fine and saved me hours (millions of files...)
AndreyP
Heh,
upgrade always contain new tinyMce plugin,
so better replace it to newest version that your Tiny will roek :)
Stuart038
I have just completed the Dolphin 6.1.2 upgrade, all seems to work well...
I was also very nervous about deleting the plugins/tiny_mce folder and replacing it with the updated folder... but it worked fine and saved me hours (millions of files...)

I still cannot upgrade the membership as admin???
AndreyP
In admin, choose profiles, and click at any (calling pedit.php), and in top of this page here are possibility to change membership of profile
Recheck
Can anybody else object or confirm it?
handsconnect
Upgrading membership works, (but does not show the change in admin area) from members profile set membership to new required level then save (at bottom).

It will not show as changed in admin area, but if re check the members profile you will see the membership level change as been made for the member.
annabel
What do you mean replacing ???

In the instructions first come the changes to upload. Then it says delete the folder tiny_mce.

So at this moment I don't have a folder TINY_MCE anymore on my server.
annabel
OK, I just uploaded the complete TINE_MCE folder from the patch. Hope this won't give any errors.
LeonidS
Yes, Stuart038 gave you right answer. If you make upgrade from 6.0.000X to 6.1 then you should completely delete old tiny_mce (2.1 in 6.0 Dolphin) and upload new (3.0 in Dolphin 6.1).
annabel
I think something has been changed in the lang file. On my homepage, instead of a published date in events and news, a string is appearing _day_of_5
rogerbr9999
I have this error too - do you solve this ???

I have problem too in featured members in home - show all members not only I put featured ... do you have this problem too ?
bss1
Yes dates are appearing in _day_of_5 format is several places
HikeMaster
I have applied the patch from 6.1.1 to 6.1.2 and everything is working great.
aviatrix
YEY !!1 upgradet successfuly from 6.1.1 to 6.1.2 !!!
SingleFling
After upgrading from 6.1.1 to 6.1.2 all seems to work , besides the fact my licensing in Ray is not working at all. Every widget through out my site states " Widget is not registered " . I have even registered all new licenses deleting my old ones. Help!
araaaa
You are Screwed.. Just Like I am.. All these upgardes make no sense.. when we cannot make use of licences we paid money for.. Unfortunate... I have the same issue.. Not sorted.. for 8 weeks now.. Now I'm paying someone $50 to do that... yet not happened..
CitizenKane
Try to register all widgets. Usual reason of "not working licenses" - using Free keys in AdFree packages and vise-versa. So first of all you should check - may be you applied patch for not yours type of package ?

It relates to you too, araa, first of all check your package first and then only pay $50 someone
triuneity
I had the same problem. I had to reinstall the entire patch and change the permissions as the should be in the instructions. Then I re-registered all the widgets and that got it to work. Good luck.
lrepton
Sounds like folk of are having some probs with this....

I think I will leave my live site alone until I get a thumbs up from someone who upgrades from 6.1.1 to 6.1.2 .....
TeethDown
Another shitty update to fix bugs. Causing more bugs. The guys seem to never understand that they can't write software.
CitizenKane
It's very interesting to see example of your software firstly. Everyone from this community can test it and check that you're not empty forums-sitter.
houseperu
first of all let me tell you that you guys make fantastic job

Download Dolphin 6.1 Patch 2 Free Version, Ad Free Version or SmartPro Version which one do I choose? I chose Ad Free Version because I installed the FREE version then purchased a license but now I have upgraded patching using the Ad Free Version and my RAY Widgets ALL state "This Widget Is Not Registered".

Can someone help me figure out why the only issue I have since the upgrade is " All the free licensed widgets that were working fine before patching now do not work at all "? see more

I have even deleted all of my old licenses and created new ones, registered them in Plugin Admin area and still no change.

I just purchased my first license for Dolphin last week, hosted with your recommended host and I haven't heard anything after two short e-mails to support... Sigh
CitizenKane
Everything is simple - you should download patch according current type of package - Free patch for Free etc.

If you apply wrong patch then you can replace it with proper but in this case don't forget to set proper permissions as required in manual.
triune51
Funny, I purchased Dolphin and installed it a week before the patch came out. Every Ray widget worked fine with no problems. Now after the instal of the Ad-Free patch, none of the ray widgets work. I am getting the error, "this widget is not registered". What is the solution to this problem? Should I reinstall all the Ray widgets? Any help would be appretiated.
kevmartin
Great to see the upgrade out, but I have to ask ... is there a reason for this:

"Note: Do not upload the folders from the patch overwriting the ones existing on your site. "

I take this to mean each folder has to be manually opened and have its files uploaded separately. Things would be so much simpler if we could just upload everything - would save an awful lot of time. Is there some issue with permissions getting changed if you upload a folder as well as all its subfolders? If see more so, I have never noticed it, using various FTP clients?
gameutopia
kevmartin:
"Note: Do not upload the folders from the patch overwriting the ones existing on your site. "

I don't have any issues overwritting all files/directories with ftp.

I am thinking maybe for those that are trying to use something like cpanel file manager this might cause issues or be confussing.

This patch did fix a number of issues but it did break a few more, and I haven't fully tested yet, so I am sure I'll come across more as time goes.

What it did mess up is im see more and chat. Now they no longer work right. Welcome message is messed up in IM, and in chat I click in the text box to type but it wont let me type in there. It's like I can't no matter what I do. Both worked prior to this, with a 3rd party rms. So many other pages did not. Now I have to backup and combine the 2 6.1.1 and 6.1.2 into a combination of files, database, and try to make them work. Bummer...I had my hopes up for a little while.

I tell you if it's not one thing it's another....oh well back to the drawing board I guess!!

There is one more error. If you are loged in as admin or any other user and visit the menu "Polls" suddenly there appears the "Login" or "Join Now" at the header top, even if you are loged in. At all other menu points it works fine.
mikesta
Okay, once more, it only appears if you are logged in as Admin. Also at the Whiteboard, there you get the message that you have to login.

Does any one know how to fix the date , ever since i upgrade ito 6.2 i get _day_of_6 how i fix this.
Hi all, ´The Patch have work great for me, but after the Ecard Mod links doesnot work, can some bady telme how do I fix it, no one of the Send_Ecard_Links works(Top Menu Link or Member Send_Ecard_Links)
handsconnect

Orca is is not allowing edit from user or admin, after clicking submit, returns: Access denied. You must have special permissions to access this area or you are not logged in.
triune51
I am having the same problem. Just bought the ad-free dolphin and installed it. Then installed the patch 6.1.2 and all the Ray widgets wont work. Am getting "Widget is not registered" for all the widgets.

The Free widgets worked well before the update and now they do not function at all. I can not unregister it or even put in a new license. Please help!
mkradio
Resolving the problem with _day_of_6 _day_of_5 etc...

There is an error in upgrade.php

If you already executed upgrade.php open it with text editor , if not go to step 2.

Step 1. Remove this line

execSqlFile( './upgrade.sql' );



Step 2. Then find this in upgrade.php

$iLangID = (int)db_value( "SELECT `ID` FROM `LocalizationLanguages` WHERE `Name`='English'"

Replace the word 'English' with 'en' (or the abrevation for your language pack.

Run again see more http://www.yourdomain.com/upgrade.php

That's it...

No more _day_of blah blah...

It will show exact day... 22 June, 2008
HikeMaster
Hi, I'm not sure I understand what to do. I am only getting _day_of_6 error in my blog date. The date shows up normally everywhere else. I have already executed uprade.php and the upgrade completed. Should I execute upgrade.php again after I make the modification you suggest?
sirius76
I am having a problem with the captcha on the join page. It doesn't display the security image. Instead it says 'problem generating security image'. Otherwise, everything works fine till now. Can anyone help? Thank you.
sirius76
I have been able to solve the problem by disabling use of GD library for image processing in the advance settings from Admin, but noticed that image processing is quite slow. Any solution hint on how to solve the GD library problem? Thank you.
buci17
Hi, I have the same problem and found that solution of my problem is to change CHMod ( it was 755 ) to 750 of dir public_html/simg and now its working fine. I hope that this will help you. Bye.

What I am fining besides the above is should another user enter the Chat it as if they are the only one there... Cannot Create Rooms...etc.

Posts see more in Groups Still give the [L[New Topic]]

Thanks

Issue with forum groups - you should login as admin and then go to URL your_site/groups/orca and compile language file as in original orca.

About chat and IM - need to check, provide me via Unity mail URL, FTP, Cpanel and SSH accesses of your site.

Bug in getting help on date formats in the advanced settings of the admin panel. It tries to open admin/help.html, but the page is already in the admin section so it looks for admin/admin/help.html and gets error 404.

Clean install with same-day purchased ad-free license still shows ads, even after applying the ad-free license in the advanced settings.

Now that I have a clean install, how do I migrate my users from the current database to the new database? I can't find info on this in the installation document.
sammie
hope you backed up your site, or did the upgrade on the database at least.

or did you just delete your site and installed a clean install of 6.1.2 and hoped for the best?

Upgrade 6.0.5-6.1.2 resets to default all settings. So you should again go to admin panel->moderation settings and unchecked option "Automatic profile confirmation without Confirmation Email"

Upgraded to 6.1.2 adfree with no problems but I can't see a way to get to chat admin to kick/ban etc. If Admin tries to go to chat, he is asked to log in as a member. Gave moderator status to 2 members but their chat screen are normal.

Ray Base A/V Chat Admin just gives a blank screen.

Can someone advise on access to chat admin?

mods in chat just click on the user name it brings up a popup and lists profile and other things, at the bottom it has kick and ban user

Widget is not registered !!! what is it ? why i can play video or music ?
LeonidS
It's very informative post - where you can play music and video, and what widgets aren't register? After what actions you've got this situation ? If upgrade - then from what to what versions, what package do you have? Next time provide more details plz.
Hello, those who have issues with _day_of_6 _day_of_5 and so on and didn't help also:

Step 2. Then find this in upgrade.php

$iLangID = (int)db_value( "SELECT `ID` FROM `LocalizationLanguages` WHERE `Name`='English'"

Replace the word 'English' with 'en' (or the abrevation for your language pack.

---------

Then like me you have own language compiled. You can try to
use other string aka not 'en' put 'rumenia* or whatever named u did give when you first time compiled your language.

Also see more you can directly add new lines to your language file.
Those lines you can find upgrade.php file aka array part.

But don't know.. if later when you recompile they will be added
again.

Just bought the ad-free dolphin and installed it. Then installed the patch 6.1.2 and all the Ray widgets wont work. Am getting "Widget is not registered" for all the widgets.

The Free widgets worked well before the update and now they do not function at all. I can not unregister it or even put in a new license. Please help!

I just bought the ad-free dolphin and installed it. Then the patch for 6.1.2 came out and I installed it just as the directions said. I used the proper patches, Ad-Free for Dolphin and Free for Ray, and now all the Ray widgets wont work. Am getting "Widget is not registered" for all the widgets.

The Free widgets worked well before the patch and now they do not function at all. I try to unregister it by typing "not registered" in the main.xml so i could re-register it. The see more Ray admin console takes the license and says that it has been registered but when I go to view any of the widgets, they all say "Widget is not registered".

Please help!
triuneity
I got it to finally work. I reinstalled the entire patch and the re-registered the widgets. Thanks

Hi there, I have an issue when creating an HTML Block, I thought the upgrade may fix this, but still got a problem.

When I create an HTML Block.. the website then says" Couldn't execte query!" is there a way to fix this please?

A few questions n suggestions on Dolphin;

1 - Why can't you simply embed YouTube videos onto the Video section rather than having to upload it all. Uploading everything takes up server space!!

2 - When will there be a mobile version of Dolphin? All the others are doing it - why not Dolphin?

3 - On the Promo Block, you cannot allow hyperlinks. I've got businesses wanting to put there banner on there with a link to there site, but can't - doesn't look good.

4 - Also you sould be able to see more use the Promo Block and the Custom HTML Block at the same time on the homepage.

This is a huge security item which needs to be solved very quickly !!!!!

Thought I posted a comment but it seems to be gone ...

Someone knows a solution for my problem ????

I just want to check with you guys before I upgrade.

I've bought some mods from expertzzz.com and I've modified some of the files. I noticed that some of the files to be replaced for the upgrades are actually those that have been modified for the mod. Won't this affect the mod itself?

Does this mean that I'm doomed to stick to 6.1.1 forever?
reading all of these I will never upgrade till Armageddon hehehe
