My 3.4.x installation was happily ticking until the last couple of weeks when I have started noticing delay when post submitting and liking content. - Loading and reading - no problems - Editing - no problems - Submitting in new threads - usually fast - Submitting and liking in old threads - slow I felt that it is somehow related to notifications, because otherwise I do not understand why submitting is slow, but edit is fast. I assumed it is because submitting needs to send a notification to all thread subscribers and thats a lot of people, especially in the large topics. I tried to limit the stored amount of notifications, but it didn't help. Tr…

Is there a list anywhere of all of the contents of the various .htaccess files that get created when locking down directories with .htaccess using the security center step or as part of the friendly URL setup? I would like to turn allowoverride off to improve performance and put all the .htaccess content into my VHOST config. I can't seen to find a list though.

Hi all, I've been screwing around with moving from Apache prefork w/ mod_php to event w/ proxy_fcgi and php7-fpm. My server is running ubuntu 16.04LTS. Couple issues I could use some advice with: http://www.geoffstratton.com/ubuntu-1604-web-server-apache-php-and-mysql this guide suggests that "if you install Apache and PHP-FPM simultaneously, Apache will be configured to use Event as its multi-processing module". I've found this to be true on a clean install, however, the server I want to upgrade already has apache 2.4 installed with prefork and mod_php. Is there a clean way to switch over? The only guide I can find is https://www.digitalocean.com/com…

So we have a new update. I'm getting the following at the bottom of my passed system check: You are running PHP version 5.6.30. While this version is compatible, we recommend version 7.0.0 or above. For those of you using the latest version with 7 or above, how's that working for you?

CHMOD 0777

So, setting up IPS4, the steps include setting permissions on certain directories to 0777. Is this still considered acceptable on an otherwise secure server, or is there another way of achieving the same ends on apache? I have a one user, one website server. My current setup has everything served from /var/www/website.com/public_html, which directory is owned by curret $USER:$USER per the tutorial here: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-apache-virtual-hosts-on-ubuntu-16-04. Is there a different/better way of doing things such that the software has write access to the folders without needing 0777? Would making the public_html fo…

Since changing from myisam to innodb my forum has been sluggish, the search index is going to take almost 4 days to complete. I tested a simple installation of IPS4 which took 10 minutes and importing a theme took 1 minute. It is also sluggish saving the theme. Clearly something is amiss. My server uses a Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5550 @ 2.67GHz processor with 32GB of ram and ssd hard drives. I've read a post by @Dave MacDonald here https://invisionpower.com/forums/topic/430990-looking-for-mysql-help-happy-to-pay/#comment-2645151 where he gives his my.cnf file which apparently helped his forum. Can someone help me? This is my current my.cnf file. [mysqld] p…

Okay. After a lengthy upgrade to do a lot of issues, My forum is at http://tennesseeanglers.com/forums. I used to have Portal installed on my 3.4.6 so that index.php was in my root tennesseeanglers folder. I removed it and still need some kind of file in there to make it all work as intended when people go to tennesseeanglers.com. While support has been helping and did do the upgrade, nothing was put into my root folder and they're probably busy helping somebody else at the moment. If I can get this working now...I'd love to. What do I need to do (without doing a redirect through my domain host) exactly?

Hello, As much as possible i do not want anyone to know my server's password. and the support staff says they cannot help me with my situation unless i give them access. the only problem i am encountering is HTTP 500 error with a blank page, upon accessing /admin/install this is frustrating me, is IPS Board really this hard to install? Someone please tell me giving passwords to staff of IPS is okay. Thanks

Hi all, someone tried to mount a self-hosted CDN on IPS4.x? A self-hosted CDN parallelize downloads across domains because all the dynamic (PHP) as well as static content (CSS, JS, Images) were getting loaded from main domain which was causing it to load a bit slow. Creating a CDN cookie-less domain for all these static contents is very useful on WordPress, no one has already done it on the IPS? all the best for all

We have bigint(20) type of member_id field in db on old forums (3.x). Start convertion. But when script go deeper to member_id, then it do lesser and lesser members by one mr-step. I am found cause of that. In /applications/core/setup/upg_40000/upgrade.php on line 240 we have this select: $select = \IPS\Db::i()->select( 'core_members.*, profile_portal.*', 'core_members', NULL, 'core_members.member_id', array( $limit, $perCycle ) ) ->join( 'profile_portal', 'profile_portal.pp_member_id=core_members.member_id' ); where $limit - is last count of member_id offset (not last member id) and $perCycle is constant 350.

Hello, if i move my forum from http to https, using those instructions: https://invisionpower.com/news/avoiding-google-security-warnings-r996/, a 301 redirect from all pages with http to https should not be done (for SEO purposes)? Something like: RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301] should do the redirect, right? What do you advise me to do? Thank you!

We are using latest board, hardware is 8 core Xeon with 8G memory and M2 SSD ... top online around 150 users. But it takes ages, that "online" page produce results. I made various optimisations found in this sub forum and our forum generally works well, except this. I found this in /var/log/mysql/mysql-slow.log SELECT count(*) FROM `armcore_sessions` AS `core_sessions` WHERE ( core_sessions.id IN(SELECT MAX(id) FROM `armcore_sessions` AS `s` WHERE s.running_time>1488722103 AND s.login_type!=3 GROUP BY `member_id`) OR ( core_sessions.member_id IS NULL AND core_sessions.login_type != 3 AND core_sessions.running_time > 1488722103) ) Any hint how to fix it…

Right now (We're on SMF and in the process of moving to IPB) we have emails disabled as it exposes the server origin in the email headers. Has anyone else had a similar problem in having to hide their server origin, and how did you resolve it?

I can't really figure out what rules IPS uses for leveraging browser caching. More specifically, I don't get what's going on with the generated CSS / JS files. Since the files are recompiled to disk with a new filename every time they are changed, it seems like the software should have very aggressive caching rules to prevent a user from redownloading them. However, just a simple F5 on a page shows that (almost) all the CSS and JS files get redownloaded *anyway*. (This is with a basically-default install, no custom htaccess rules or anything like that.) I say "almost" because there is one exception, which makes the whole thing more baffling. Request for the…

I have read the memcached can be faster if the connection is made by socket instead of TCP: https://guides.wp-bullet.com/configure-memcached-to-use-unix-socket-speed-boost/ Is there a way to set socket connection to memcached on IPS? On AdminCP, the only available option is by TCP.

Help, I am having high loads all of a sudden and I don't know why. Enabled "under attack" with cloudflare. didn't help much (not sure it's even working) reboot server. ... nothing is helping. How do I tell if I am under attack or just have high traffic? Did something else break? Who's Online 263 Members, 18 Anonymous, 100 Guests (See full list) That's pretty normally for maybe, maybe just a tad high but shouldn't be overwhelming the server.
