#1299 Bug: displayed MySQL Server version on administration

[Muki]

Error in modules/system/themes/zetadigme/zetadigme.php : MySql access data wrong Data.
My Errorcode Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost'. My select admin theme = zetagenesis.
In administration the MySQL Server version is not displayed.

What version of XOOPS do you have? What version of PHP?
Is this a new installation?
I just tested it on the 2.5.8 Beta from SVN, and there is no problem.
I am not sure I understand the issue here...

Please note: Zetadigme will not be supported anymore, please use the Default Admin theme.

First install was V 2.5.6

What version of MySQL do you have?
Is this a local PC or hosted domain?
Do you use password, or just only user name?
What else can you tell us about your installation?

I have never experienced anything like this.

Does it work when you use the "default" Admin theme?

[Muki]

The error is in the default theme.
MySQL version is 5.5 and the home page is installed on a hosted domain.
Registration is with user and password.
I am experiencing something similar the first time.

It might be that your web host has disabled this "feature". You can see if it's been disabled by copying the following script to a file (say test.php), copy it to your server and executing it. See if 'mysql_get_server_info' is listed as one of the functions which has been disabled. Some hosting companies disable this as a security "enhancement".

<?php
$iniDisabled = ini_get('disable_functions');
var_dump($iniDisabled);
?>

Thank you for the script. It's like you had guessed, this function is switched off by the provider.
Perhaps it would make sense to check whether a value is returned to avoid an error.
Here in Germany the providers emphasize more and more security.
