With the release of E-Blah P8.02, comes a brand new image set, a brand new search engine, and several bug fixes from 8.0 released a two weeks ago.  This is a minor release, but should be installed as it fixes several minor bugs found since the release, which was somewhat rushed.  Download the new E-Blah today!

:) good work Justin... Have to say, aint it strange that no matter how much work you do, there will always be the odd minor bug or two...

Yeah.  :P  There is no bug free software ... there will always be SOMETHING you can tear up.  :(

Smooth upgrade, great work Justin.

only one problem:

There was a problem loading a part of the E-Blah software. The system administrator may be upgrading this forum. If you continue to receive this error after several minutes, please contact the system administrator. Further information relating to this incident is below (file information).

./Admin2.pl

Can't find string terminator "EOT" anywhere before EOF at ./Admin2.pl line 180.
Compilation failed in require at Blah.pl line 94.


Software Error: This problem is caused by the software currently running on this server in one of the core files that are loaded. The system administrator must fix this error.

Reupload Admin2.pl ...

I uploaded all Code, including Admin2.pl and it solved the problem.

I did a clean install and everything went very smoothly. P8.02 is the best yet.

Sniff sniff :( only thing now to fix the image uploading.  Aside from that - top notch dude! Great job! :D

I haven't had a chance to install it, but I will say this, I am happy that you fixed the css path in the template.  Did notice that you changed it in the smiles template to, but it is different.  None the less, I will let you know what I think on the weekend.  I'm back at work now...vacation is over:(

Well, I changed it in Smilies template diffrently because normally you only go there if the path is right anyway.  :P

I understand why, but regardless, if the path is wrong...the template will not show.  Nothing you can do about that ;D

I know you've said you can't do anymore with the image uploading thing...

But would it help you to fix it on windows servers if I set you up a test account and webspace on a windows 2003 II6 server with full permissions?

I'm a reseller so it's no problem.

I have a Windows server, here, and it works fine.  :-/  I spent hours the first time I coded it ... :-/.  I don't know what it could be.  :'(

That's a shame but que sera.  If u ever decide to reconsider, gimme a eblah mail eh?

Well, I finally got around to upgrading from 8.0 - 8.02.  Fixed a lot of stuff I see.  Great job again Justin.  Images were a little tricky though...you renamed a few things:)

 I am a little worried about the name changes with the image folder, is there a tutorial for us mentally challenged eblah users??  If not maybe I can whip one up when I sit down this weekend to make the change to this new version.  Once again Justin, great job!!  Every thing looks great as normal!

Yeah, that was an issue I had myself.  If you have any problems Craig has helped many people with this issue.  He knows the new format like clockwork by now I think.  ;)

are you able to release details on all the scripts you have changed in this patch as i a lot of mods on my site and i need to know which ones i have to fix before i install the patch eg one of them i know of is the search one which i have to reworkout what does what in order to reaply my mod.

I'm not sure about which files have changed from 8 to 8.02, but there might be a way you can find out. If you have a 8.02 test board somewhere, upload the mods and do a "test install" in the mod center. I think the results page will tell you which parts of each mod will install correctly and which have errors that need to be fixed before installation.

This may not be what you are asking, but it's the method I used when I was updating a mod from P6 to P8. :)

With 8.02, it should be no problem.  A big push in the right direction is to just upload blahdocs to your server not htdocs/blahdocs.  This will help cut down on your problems...or at least it did for me ;D
...and of course, if you have any issues, post them on the board.

I think you should do this Justin.  That way you could nail down a good doc file on how to set up a windows server to work 100%...that way I wouldn't have too:)

*cough cough, COBOL or OpenBSD O/S???

there is no template.html provided with the new release?

Yes, it's in blahdocs/template ... read the readme.  ;)

thanks a lot for infoo..
