  • Followup: RE: broken install

    Please check config.php. It should include your MySQL username and password, and the following line: define('MELTDOWN_INSTALLED', true); If it doesn't, something has gone wrong during the install.

  • Followup: RE: strange characters when import echomail

    Hello and thanks for reporting this issue. From, To and Subject are supposed to be null-padded strings, but apparently this is not always the case. To fix the problem, just find these lines in import-echomail.pl: $from =~ s/\00//g; $to =~ s/\00//g; $subj =~ s/\00//g; and replace them with: $from =~ s/\00.*//g; $to =~ s/\00.*//g; $subj =~ s/\00.*//g; You may do...

    Dang! It was just pointed out to me that install.php is missing from the archives of the new release. Anyway, that was just fixed - please redownload the file.

  • Meltdown BBS 1.0 alpha 4 released

    The new release fixes some bugs (hopefully). The Fidonet-technology networking and maintenance functions are now combined in a single package named Meltdown BBS Utilities. The new release of Meltdown BBS Utilities is done entirely in Perl; binary releases have been discontinued.

  • Followup: RE: Here's a new one...

    Well, apparently PHP doesn't have MySQL enabled. Here's what I found in the PHP documentation, hope this helps: By using the --with-mysql[=DIR] configuration option you enable PHP to access MySQL databases. In PHP 4, the option --with-mysql is enabled by default. To disable this default behavior, you may use the --without-mysql configure option. Also in PHP 4, if you enable MySQL without...

  • Followup: RE: Admin - timeout ?

    That's weird, because I can't reproduce the problem on my PC. I start with a clean install, and it works finely... maybe it has something to do with PHP's configuration. I'll continue looking into it. Well... that's why it's still an alpha release :-)

  • Followup: RE: Security

    Well, that depends on the server you're using. For example, in Apache, you can deny remote access to the file by creating a file called .htaccess in the directory, with the following lines in it: <Files *.inc> Deny From All </Files> I've not tested that, so if it does not work, check your server's documentation.

  • Followup: RE: Admin - timeout ?

  • Meltdown BBS 1.0 alpha 2 and Meltdown Tosser 1.0 alpha

    The new releases provide some bugfixes, interface improvements, and finally - complete Fidonet functionality (i.e. Meltdown BBS can now be used in a fully working Fidonet node). Meltdown Tosser is currently only available for Win32 platforms. Any help with porting the software to another OS will be appreciated.
