It was reported in different places about critical unfixed issue with IM. It is highly recommended to disable some functions until the IM developer will issue the fix. Enter the following code to: /etc/ImageMagick/policy.xml <policymap> <policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="EPHEMERAL" /> <policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="URL" /> <policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="HTTPS" /> <policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="MVG" /> <policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="MSL" /> <policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="TEXT" /> <policy domain="coder" rights="none" …

Hi, I will ask to a service provider to update PHP 5.4 to PHP 5.6 I ran IPS requirement checker, and there are only these 3 advices : - You are not running a compatible version of PHP. You need PHP 5.5.0 or above - You do not have the cURL PHP extension loaded or it is running a version less than 7.36. While this is not required, it is recommend to make calls to external API services faster. You may wish to contact your hosting provider or system administrator to ask for it to be installed - You are running MySQL version 5.5.37-0ubuntu0.12.04.1. While this version is compatible, we recommend version 5.6.0 or above, but this is not essential. You may …

I did a "test" upgrade of our website from version 3.4.8 (patched) to 4.1.10. The database storage requirement went from ~3GB to ~18GB, resulting in our server running out of space and trashing the MAIN site's database (thankfully I'd kept the main site on 3.4.8 and haven't rushed to upgrade), requiring around 4 hours site downtime and work which involved restoring a previous backup, then copying some .frm .MYI and .MYD files directly from the restore's storage location to the main database's location, then running a repair. So, on order not to crash the site again, I've had to delete our test area to free up enough space to properly run the overnight backups. Has an…

So, I got myself the demo version that contains all the applications... and I saw the guide on making the pages appear in my root... but I noticed an issue. I created a custom page using the app... made it my default page so that it appears as my root... but when I was fooling around and created a release notes section like the one in the guide... the page doesn't load properly. Mainly because of this: The domain is www.example.com... my forums is in www.example.com/forums. So the page I made default, my custom page, appears in www.example.com which is totally fine because thats how it is supposed to be done, but when I go to the release notes thingy that I created..…

Wondering why IPS4 doesnt come with robot.txt? In my site I am still having old one and I think it need an update to manage certain stuff that we really dont want to get crawl like empty profile pages, admin area and few testing pages. Not sure wht all we have added overtime in 3.X.X so appreciate if someone can help cleaning in below robot.txt please with bare minimum entries, as we are seeing lot of crawl error from GWT, and doubting it may be because of this wrong robot.txt. Thanks. User-agent: * Disallow: /admin/ Disallow: /cache/ Disallow: /converge_local/ Disallow: /hooks/ Disallow: /ips_kernel/ Disallow: /retail/ Disallow: /public/style_captcha/ Di…

So basically I moved my forums from a subdomain to a sub folder under the main url (forums.example.com --> example.com/forums). When I did that, I moved everything properly (I believe), changed the URLs, made sure everything was HTTPS and not HTTP since the main domain has SSL. Now for some reason, on FireFox and Chrome, I keep getting an error: - Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'get' of undefined inside my root_framework.js - Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'argsToArray' of undefined inside my root_framework.js This blocks the use of posting, viewing chatbox, etc. etc. but on my Safari browser... I don't get this error. Like I …

Hi I'm trying to rebuild our environment, following the death of a dearly beloved server, on CentOS 7. We used to use windows, we've actually got a centos7 cloud server running on softlayer at the moment, no problem. But the new centos install I've created on our replacement physical server refuses to play ball. We're using nginx 1.9 with php-fpm 5.6 and mariadb 10.1 (that's the same as the cloud environment we're using) php worker processes are running as user nginx. The Install script for IPS falls at the first hurdle with; The directory /usr/share/nginx/html/applications needs to be writable. Please change the directory's CHMOD to 0777 …

Hi, due to the fact that we can't have mod_deflate on our server (no, we don't want to change the provider) we activated zlib.compression in our php.ini. zlib.output_compression = On; Compression level is set to -1. So far so good. It's working, but .... ... only with our Wordpress installation which is on the same domain but just using a different directory. All the files and all the output from ipb isn't being compressed. What can be the problem? Thanks in advance for any help.
