PHP 4.0.6

[Nobody/Anonymous]

Hi,
First, congrads for this great script ! :)

Here's my problem :
I'm using the 4.0.6 version of PHP (on a Linux box), so I changed all the $_GET, $_POST, $_SERVER and $_SESSION by $HTTP_xxx_VARS, including in header.php and footer.php of the theme I'm using.
But when I'm still unable to login...

I don't get any error message (even before getting redirected to index.php)

What else should I do ?

thanks.

Ok I found out where the session problem was and I changed this portion of code :

// Log user in if post variables are defined from form
if (($HTTP_POST_VARS['logmein']) && ($HTTP_POST_VARS['username']) && ($HTTP_POST_VARS['password'])) {

  //Make sure nobody tries to be shifty
  //unset($HTTP_SESSION_VARS['isadmin']);
  session_unregister('isadmin');
  $result1=db_query("SELECT userid,password,fullname,email,theme,admin FROM ".$prefix."users WHERE username='".$HTTP_POST_VARS['username']."'");
  $num_rows1 = db_num_rows($result1);
  list($userid,$pwd,$fullname,$user_email,$user_theme,$isadmin)=db_fetch_array($result1);
  if (($num_rows1 > 0) && (md5($HTTP_POST_VARS['password']) == $pwd)) {
    //$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['userid'] = $userid;
    session_register('userid');
    //$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['isloggedin'] = $glbl_hash;
    $isloggedin=$glbl_hash;
    session_register('isloggedin');
    //$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['user_theme'] = $user_theme;
    session_register('user_theme');
    //$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['fullname'] = $fullname;
    session_register('fullname');
    //$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['user_email'] = $user_email;
    session_register('user_mail');
    //$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['username'] = $HTTP_POST_VARS['username'];
    session_register('username');
      if ($isadmin == 1) {
        $isadmin = $glbl_hash;
        //$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['isadmin'] = $isadmin;
        session_register('isadmin');
      }
  }
}

But now I don't get redirected  instantly to index.php. I must obviously change the $HTTP_SESSION_VARS['isloggedin'] ...

I'm surprised you had so much trouble.  I was able to test on an installation of 4.0.6 (linux) and it worked without issue.  I wonder what's different between my setup and yours.

The code you modified was designed to work with 'register_globals' turn Off in the php.ini, and it appears that you have it On, or your session_register() functions would not work.

So after changing the IF and ELSE in the last part of the user.php, did everything function properly?

yes my register_globals is set to ON (booh!)

I changed indeed the last part of user.php, and everything is working fine now.

By the way, are you planning to translate phpCC ?

chicobra.

I hadn't _planned_ on it, but that could be a potential feature for future versions.  What language(s) did you have in mind?  Are you willing to help..?

[Nobody/Anonymous]

sure, I can give you the french translation as least, and maybe the german one (if I still remember...)

[Brad Fears]

That works for me.  Send me your email address so I have a way to contact you when I start working on the languages.

You can send the address to 'brad_fears@users.sourceforge.net'.

Thanks
