Hi lisalife

can you give specific details about what isn't working with the wiki? Take
your time to document the steps you're taking

Hi conz,

Using the last allocPSA version 1.8.6 2012-08-27.

In Wiki, I choose New File in Document path i typed
D:/xampp/htdocs/allocPSAlast/attachements/wiki/info01.txt , typed some text
and hit Save Document and I get this:

%3Cdiv+class%3D%27message+warn+noprint%27+style%3D%27margin-top%3A0px%3B+margin-bottom%3A10px%3B+padding%3A10px%3B%27%3EBad+filename%3A+D%3A%2Fxampp%2Fhtdocs%2FallocPSAlast%2Fattachements%2Fwiki%2Finfo01.txt%3Cbr%3EPath+is+not+writeable.%3Cbr%3ENo+description+of+changes+entered.%3C%2Fdiv%3E

Also, in Tools Security, I have this error: Fatal error: Class
'invoiceRepeatDate' not found in
D:\xampp\htdocs\allocPSAlast\security\lib\permission.inc.php on line 40

Thank you so much for your interest.

Hello,

I am jumping in here because I have this error as well - but running on LAMP -
so I suspect it may be a bug - also see my previous thread...

Re: Second error -

Tools Security, I have this error: Fatal error: Class 'invoiceRepeatDate' not
found in D:\xampp\htdocs\allocPSAlast\security\lib\permission.inc.php on line
40

Alex or Con, have any ideas on this one?

TIA, Keith Waldron

Keith, lisalife,

we're investigating these now.

I've fixed that permissions error that was popping up in alloc 1.8.7. You can
wait till the latest version release or just dump this code into this NEW
file: invoice/lib/invoiceRepeatDate.inc.php

class invoiceRepeatDate extends db_entity {
  public $classname = "invoiceRepeatDate";
  public $data_table = "invoiceRepeatDate";
  public $key_field = "invoiceRepeatDateID";
  public $data_fields = array("invoiceRepeatID"
                             ,"invoiceDate"

I don't have a windows box available that I can test the wiki error on... so
my diagnosis is going to be a bit poor. But if the path you are trying to
write to is:

D:/xampp/htdocs/allocPSAlast/attachements/wiki/info01.txt

When you're using the wiki interface are you actually typing all of that path
out? Because you shouldn't be. "D:" will be local to your desktop, not your
webserver.

Check that your webserver can in fact write to that path.

Maybe look through the code for the bit that prints out the error message:
"Bad filename" and just remove that validation check altogether. You probably
only need it if you have a malicious user base that is actively trying to hack
you :-)

And lastly the error is saying that there was No Description of Changes, so I
guess enter a description before you hit save.

We'll try and make all this a bit easier in the future.

lisalife, Keith,

how are you going with this issue?

Hi lisalife, Conz, Alance,

Thanks for the fix:

• I created a new file named: invoice/lib/invoiceRepeatDate.inc.php
• Pasted the code listed above
• logged out and closed all allocPSA instances (not sure if this was necessary)
• logged back in as usual
• went to tools - security - and the security list displayed all data without errors
  --> fix works for our 1.8.6 installation

--> issue resolved

Thanks for your persistent and timely assistance - allocPSA continues to get
better all the time!
