[Srtool-users] Code-(X)HTML separation...

[Drew N. <dre...@ma...>]

If you'd like I can take a look at doing the code/content separation.
I've been doing this using the dom/domxml (php5/php4) functions in my
code lately.
Also, I've been playing with making the code function with
register_globals off--it hasn't been pretty, but I'm making progress.

[Srtool-users] 0.4.3 is released!

[<dkn...@ma...>]

There are lots of changes from 0.4.2 such as mysql authentication,  
registration page, improved documentation, easier installation,  
etc... There is a sql_update_0.4.2-0.4.3.sql file in the etc dir to  
upgrade an older db schema to be compatible with version 0.4.3.

One thing to note: in php.ini you need to have register_globals set  
to 'on' for the app to function correctly (thanks to rvnphnx for  
pointing this out). This will be fixed shortly (some of the issues in  
this release are already fixed).

To upgrade:
1. Replace the code in /path/to/srtool (except conf.php and any other  
files you changed)
2. In the etc dir there is a sql update script that will need to be run:
     mysql -h <yoursqlserver> -u <statusdb_username - 
p<statusdb_password> statusdb < sql_update_0.4.2-0.4.3.sql
3. If you are going to use mysql authentication, you will need to  
either register (from the login page) or create a user in mysql:
     log into mysql - mysql -h <yoursqlserver> -u <statusdb_username - 
p<statusdb_password> statusdb
     run this sql command - INSERT INTO users VALUES  
(1,'sradmin','SRtool  
Admin','management','5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99');
     (the password for sradmin is password)

[Srtool-users] mysql authentication

[David K. <dkn...@ma...>]

The newest revision in CVS includes the ability to use mysql  
authentication, in addition to the ldap authentication. This will  
make installation a lot easier for folks that only have access to a  
mysql server. A registration page has also been added if you are  
using mysql authentication, to allow users to create their own  
account for the application. There are also a lot of other updates  
that are listed in the readme.

For upgrades:
1. Replace the code in /path/to/srtool (except conf.php and any other  
files you changed)
2. In the etc dir there is a sql update script that will need to be run:
     mysql -h <yoursqlserver> -u <statusdb_username - 
p<statusdb_password> statusdb < sql_update_0.4.2-0.4.3.sql
3. If you are going to use mysql authentication, you will need to  
either register (from the login page) or create a user in mysql:
     log into mysql - mysql -h <yoursqlserver> -u <statusdb_username - 
p<statusdb_password> statusdb
     run this sql command - INSERT INTO users VALUES  
(1,'sradmin','SRtool  
Admin','management','5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99');
     (the password for sradmin is password)
