NETJUKE 1.0 BETA CHANGE LOG: Keeps track of the changes made
------------------------------------------------------------------------
VERSION 1.0b15.2: 2002-09-21 (EST: Montreal, PQ, Canada)
As of 2002-09-29, there are new files in cvs if you are
having problems with this 1.0b15.2 package.
See http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=739534&forum_id=137462
For info on how to get the cvs from cvs.
1. THIS VERSION IS ONLY COMPATIBLE WITH PHP 4.1 AND ABOVE.
This updated package fixes a lot of problems that people
were experiencing with 1.0b15 or b15.1, depending on their
platform, and brings 2 important new features (see points 9 and
11 below). Thanks to the bug fixes, I was able to install and/or
configure 2 windows hosts to date, both running Win2k, IIS, PHP,
and MySQL, and this without any modifications. First steps toward
official Windows support (not tested with apache on windows or
other windows distributions yet).
2. There are 3 ways to install/upgrade the application. Pick
the one that is appropriate to your context.
+ UPGRADING FROM 1.0b15 or 1.0b15.1:
You DO NOT HAVE TO RUN THE UPGRADE PROCESS of the installer.
You will only have to replace the files.
See netjuke/docs/UPGRADING.txt for details.
+ UPGRADING FROM 1.0b12 through 1.0b14:
You MUST RUN THE UPGRADE PROCESS of the installer to add the new
database columns required by this version.
See netjuke/docs/UPGRADING.txt and notes on 1.0b15 in CHANGELOG.txt.
+ CLEAN INSTALL of 1.0b15.2:
If you already have an install of the netjuke, but want to start
fresh, remember to drop the existing netjuke database, or create
a new one to be accessed by this version. You can also use the
delete scripts delivered in the netjuke-toolkit if you cannot
drop and create databases.
After that, see netjuke/docs/INSTALL.txt for details.
3. Real-time path generation bug fixes for windows hosts (IIS/apache)
at install time and when running the netjuke. This update will also
help on systems where the SCRIPT_FILENAME and/or SCRIPT_NAME php
predefined variables were somehow not available.
Users wanting to run the netjuke on a windows server instead of *nix
should now be able to do so. More testing (and possibly updates) is
definitely needed, but this should be a good start. It is advised to
run the binary version available on the php site rather than the
installer-based one, or choose "Advanced" in the installer, and select
"Display all errors" when prompted (last option).
4. Bug fixes for systems where the "find" command line tool cannot be
accessed (windows). There is still the potential for updates on
non-windows systems where php cannot process shell commands such
as "find" or "whereis" (safe_mode?).
5. Bug fix for web servers using a custom page for "404, file not found"
errors. In this context, most server redirect to the custom page, and
do return an official 404 error. This was creating problems with the
real-time generation of the web path to the root of the netjuke.
6. Removed obsolete version checking code and version file in installer.
7. Global stylesheet and javascript inclusion is now done on the
server-side in php, instead of on the client-side by relying
on the server. This can speed up the application on some systems,
and helps with cross-browser compatibility.
8. Checks if data directory is both existing (new) and writable
(previous), and only if necessary (ie: not in case of direct
db import in the Recursive Audio File Finder).
9. Enabled automated login and scheduling features
Please see netjuke/docs/GLOBAL_LOGIN.txt to see how you can now login
to the netjuke without passing by the login page, schedule automated
music imports and/or database maintenance tasks, as well as access
these features from other scripting/programming languages.
10. Upgraded to getid3 1.5.1.
11. Added support for WMA (MS Windows Media Audio) format scanning
in the recursive audio file finder, thanks to getid3 1.5.1.
People ripping their music using the Windows Media Player
will now be able to add their music automatically.
Also added supported file formats to the page header in the Recursive
Audio File Finder in Admin.

VERSION 1.0b15.1: 2002-09-09 (EST: Montreal, PQ, Canada)
1. THIS VERSION IS ONLY COMPATIBLE WITH PHP 4.1 AND ABOVE.
2. Bug fix for people running the netjuke at the web root of host
(ie: not in subdirectory such as /netjuke/).
