Migration issues

Post by Fan » 05-09-2011 03:06 PM

We are experiencing a few hiccups due to the migration, searches are disabled for now.

If you receive errors please contact me @ [email protected] (edit: lol) and I will do my best to fix it all up.

For now, bear with me, this is a large forum with ancient software running it. We should be ok in the long run, but there is a learning curve.

I see that PMs are also broken.

For those that are inquisitive, VB2 was written to support MYSQL4, while MYSQL5 is now standard.

I need to rewrite some JOIN queries in order to fix this stuff, I will be working on it. Hang in there.

Linnea has always had PMs disabled (Ever since i have been here anyway) so you shouldnt need to worry of that.. (Unless you do want to enable PMs that is)


Good luck my friend!

It is possible some of you may experience caching issues. If you have trouble, one of the first things to try is to empty your cache (firefox howto :: ie howto) and clear your cookies. You will have to re-login, but it may clear things up.

The smilies and some other images have been fixed, including Linnea's on the front page. If people see broken images, would you be so kind as to report them to me either in email or in this thread?
