URGENT: Problem with the new 1.4 version

Postby tomfra » Wed Mar 05, 2003 12:43 am

I've just upgraded my 1.2 version to the new 1.4 and the redirection does not seem to be working any more. I have added a new category as described in the readme but it didn't help.

Just check this URL: http://test.my-pci.com to see what it looks like. The destination URL should be http://www.centrum.cz but it is not...

Thanks.

Ok, I found the problem. In my opinion it is either quite a big bug or I did something wrong.

Right after the upgrade after I followed the instructions (including creating a new category) the new redirect URL code looks like this:

Code: Select all
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Website title</title>
<meta name="keywords" content="">
<meta name="description" content="">
<meta name="revisit-after" content="10 days">
<meta name="robots" content="INDEX, FOLLOW">
</head>
</frameset>
<noframes>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000">
<a href="http://destination URL">Click here to ...</a>
</body>
</noframes>
</html>


As you can see, there is something very wrong with this code. After I went to the admin.php and "edited" the particular subdomain by simply clicking on the Save button, the code looked like this:

Code: Select all
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Website title</title>
<meta name="keywords" content="">
<meta name="description" content="">
<meta name="revisit-after" content="10 days">
<meta name="robots" content="INDEX, FOLLOW">
</head>
<frameset rows="100%,*" frameborder="NO" border="0" framespacing="0">
<frame name="main" src="http://destination URL">
</frameset>
<noframes>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000">
<a href="http://destination URL">Click here to...</a>
</body>
</noframes>
</html>


It is not a big deal for me because I do not have my active accounts, I can edit each of the account by hand but for those with 100s or 1000s of active accounts it could be a problem.

Hey neighbour!

There are few possibilities why this could happen.
First of all: when did you configure all your categories?
After signing up test.my-pci.com, or before?
Did you have any users before upgrading? And were/are their subdomains categorized?

You have to set up your categories, before starting to run your service.

The problem ist, that test.my-pci.com hasn't been categorized correctly, and therefore the scripts couldn't find any advertising information for this subdomain, so the frameset hasn't been set correctly.

Hi Alex,

All of the currently registered redirects were registered before I upgraded to 1.4, I wasn't using any categories with the previous version which is probably the reason I experienced this problem. Again, it is not a serious problem for me because there are only 36 active accounts I need to correct.

Otherwise, your script is a very good one in my opinion and I appreciate your work 8)
