Discussion about: Joomla! 1.0.8 Released

[martijn189]

@cozimek :

The problem is that with MOSCE 1.0.4 and joomla 1.0.8 most of the editors features are lost, due to errors when trying to use features as the image manager or the link manager: you get errors like:

Code: Select all

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /var/www/g4225/gatenet.nl/HTML/includes/joomla.php on line 802

[stingrey]

So question is: how can this default value be set, if all I do is upload (and thus maybe replace) some files, as I take it config won't be overwritten by the patch? How does the system know this value exists if I do not open Global Config and save or apply (or: how does this var/value ever get written?).. just wondering.. I might be tired..

If params are not found in config file (like these new config params) than it will utilize defaults set in the system.

I ugraded my site from ver 1.0.7 to 1.0.8, but now I am getting javascript error in 'Administration' panel on evry page. It gives 'Object Expected' error. I am not able to make any changes in my current module and other stuff.

Trying clear your browser cache.

This is most likely due to the changes in session handling in 1.0.8

I have updated both my sites and pretty much everything works great. Thanks very much indeed!

Three things I have identified since the update to 1.0.8 is:

1) One one site the login does not work on my http://www.[domain] but it does work on http://[domain]. Is there a way around this as most of my users visit the site through www.

2) On the other site I have the '0' problem identified above. One thing I have noticed here is the URL, after login, changes to http://www.[domain]/http://www.[domain]/

3) I have the parameters for author, date and modified date set to 'hide' for my frontpage content but, since the update, all this information is showing despite the fact that my parameters are still set to 'hide'.

Any possible suggestions/solutions would be gratefully recieved and once again, thanks to everyone at Joomla for all your hard work and a fantastic CMS product!

Best wishes,

Gary

Can someone post the mysql changes between version 1.0.7 and 1.0.8? I had to do a manual installation because I've made numerous customisations to my Joomla! site.  In the new configuration file, $mosConfig_session_life_admin halts execution.

Tx for your help,

LEW

There are none.

For stability releases we do not make any changes to the database structure

hello,

it seems to be an error:

">" is missing i guess.
in a blog category, the display of an intro text with an image and a caption is bad;
________________
edit: this is true for ie; the div style of the caption is "text-align:middle" , and because the tag is not closed, all the text in the cell is centered, and the image is before the text, not floating in the left/right

Once more, thanks for this great cms

Ups, i have the same problem on varios sites.

Beat,

You are absolutely correct!
I have replaced sef.php 0.8 with the sef.php file from 0.7 distribution and everything works just fine. No more site-name prepended

Thanks

[Beat]

The problem with the mail links is that the domain is added before them:

Code: Select all

http://www.spiritofhouse.net//mailto:%3Cscript%20language='JavaScript'%20type='text/

Correct would be:

Code: Select all

mailto:%3Cscript%20language='JavaScript'%20type='text/

Mike

Mike,

Does this problem appear with core SEF activated ? and also with core SEF deactivated ?

Looks that mailto: are treated similar to the javascript: problem reported above.

Can you please confirm which SEF mode you had (on/off, 3pd sef), and if problem arises also in the other mode ?

I have the built in SEF enabled. The problem also is present when I disable it.

Mike

Mike,
I noticed that all links on your site http://www.spiritofhouse.net have a double // at the end of the site name.

e.g.
http://www.spiritofhouse.net//content......
instead of correctly:
http://www.spiritofhouse.net/content.....

It looks like your livesite config has an extra / at the end, which is wrong. This *might* make a problem in the sefing (even with sef off, 1.0.8 now correctly provides absolute links instead of relative ones).

Can you please try by removing the ending / from your live-site url (in configuration.php, search for $mosConfig_live_site) ?

Also noticed on your homepage an email address included in the text, which translates wrong. How did you insert this one in the text ?

I tried on a correctly configured test site, all is fine here in the contact form email for instance. So can't reproduce yet.

thanks for the hint with the livesite, I fixed that setting. But still I've got the same problem with the mailto links. But I'm not sure what you mean with

I'm using TinyMCE to create the content and add the ilnks there. Now since TinyMCE is not properly working, I cannot create a test entry... (getting the "Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/httpd/vhosts/spiritofhouse.net/httpdocs/includes/joomla.php on line 802" error...)

[guardian2k1]

pretty much what all the mce users are getting.  The editor itself works fine but the advanced link and advanced image plugins require a permission check.  That's where the issue seems to be.

[Hotzi]

How can these problems get fixed?

Should we open a case in a bugtracker or something? I am not familiar with this, but i would try it, if someone could give me a hint how to do it.

This thread is becoming intransparent. please excuse my poor english.

Best regards

The core team is following this thread, and the issues raised here. It is certainly a good idea to open bugs for *confirmed* bugs on the Joomla 1.0.x bug tracker after having checked if the bug has not already been notified. There you can set monitoring for fixes.

Sorry, I'm not familiar with TinyMCE, so I can't help on these ones.

Also 3PD developers will have to adapt their extensions for the new authentication and session management. Half of the problems described here are in fact 3PD problems where they didn't or couldn't use Joomla! APIs, or did not use it in the right way. This seems to be the case for MambelFish and TinyMCE at least (and maybe also for a few of the others).

1.0.8 is an incredibly vast improvement over any other release before, and the small bugs left/introduced by other bugfixes are really peanuts compared to all fixes made by Rey and rest of core team. Kudos . I'm sure core team will come with fixes for these pretty quickly.

After Rey, my turn to head for some sleep.

[Chris]

Installed perfectly.

Login module on 1.0.8 has some strange issues.

After the update from 1.0.7, on a IIS server it redirects me to http://www.domain.com/https://www.domain.com

I'm now using login module from 1.0.7 and it works just fine.

Didn't have the time to look for differences between them. Haven't found another issue yet.

Anyway, you've done a great work.

Sorry for that, I'm slowly learning the way of this forum. Thanls for your patience.

Confirmed Bugs discussed here are being split from this thread and moved to the 1.0 Quality & Testing Forum for easier tracking for the Team.

People should check that forum before posting any new bug reports here.

Same problem for me

Seems to be only when the caption align value is blank on the editor mosimage setting tab

thankfully only a few of my content items had images with captions

Great work team. Ready for 1.1.

If your post suddenly disappears from this thread, it means it is being shifted to a more appropriate thread, either as a confirmed item here:
1.0 Quality & Testing Forum for easier tracking for the Team.

Still facing the same problem. I am getting this javascript error on every page of 'Administration' panel. Not able to make anymore changes now.

Hey, all files in patch archive from 1.0.7 to 1.0.8 (tar.gz format) have chmod set to 755..  why not 644??

It wouldn't matter what they are, if you are uploading by ftp then the server should change them.  If not, just use Joomlas global permission change.

Oh, too late, just untared on the server. 
Where ist this "Joomlas global permission change" feature for existing files located?

Now I need to manualy fix those "everybody can enter my dirs or execute files" permissions on the shared (php-cgi) webserver, right?

How to do that? And which dirs/files require o+x?

Good work!

On the announcement there were a couple typos;
http://www.joomla.org/content/view/940/74/

Backing up:
... "we cannot garuantee"

Package Integrity:
... "on the Ofifical"

All the best!
