I haven't see this posted here. There is a nasty root exploit that affects CentOS and CloudLinux. From various discussions I've read no one has yet found the cause. The rootkit puts file /lib64/libkeyutils.so.1.9 on 64bit systems and /lib/libkeyutils.so.1.9 on 32bit systems I know CentOS is pretty popular and many hosts use it so if I were you I'd check the thread at http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1235797 and also this blog post http://www.cloudlinux.com/blog/clnews/sshd-exploit.php.There is a link to a bash script to clean this up, however, since this is a root exploit it's probably better to reload the OS. Those files might not be the only nasties th…

Noticed today that MySQL v5.6 is now out as a General Availability (GA) release. Just wondering if IPB should be fully compatible with this release and if anyone has had any success / failures upgrading to this version of MySQL?

I've got LDAP turned on using the same settings that other applications of mine are using, but I can't seem to authenticate against our Active Directory. Is there a debug mode or somethign similar so I can see all of the messaging going on? All I've seen in the log is the message that an error occurred. I don't know where the error is occurring.

Hi, the other day we test upgraded a db copy of our site. We also decided we would like to test and make the switch to utf-8. Please note: This convert is only done on a test version of our forum with a test db. We did this by commands like: mysql> ALTER TABLE ippbe_posts CONVERT TO CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_swedish_ci; Query OK, 19203896 rows affected (2 hours 48 min 33.23 sec) Records: 19203896 Duplicates: 0 Warnings: 0 On all the tables. As you can see, it appearantly executed successfully. Testing it later, it worked but... then I made the switch of the document character set to utf-8 and then it didn't work anymore. Causing errors like: A…

Now my forum is hosted on a server that uses MySQL 5.0.77 and PHP Version 5.2.16 Because I had some 503 Service Unavailable error, technical support from hosting company offered me to migrate on a sever account with PHP 5.5 and MySQL 5.3, with next generation hardware. I want to know if IP.Board 3.3.4. is compatible with these specifications and is recommended to do this migration. Thank you.

Hello, i had setup replication again, this time i had chosen to ignore some tables, but im not 100% sure if its ok to ignore them or i should add others. I do this to reduce some load on the slave and have a smaller backup. replicate-wild-ignore-table=MyIPBdb.gacontent_cache_posts% replicate-wild-ignore-table=MyIPBdb.gasearch_keywords% replicate-wild-ignore-table=MyIPBdb.gasearch_visitors% replicate-wild-ignore-table=MyIPBdb.gasessions%

Hello, Hopefully you guys can help me since IPB support has not been able to figure this one out and I was referred here as well by them. I have a minecraft server and were trying to add IPB as the website/forum for it. We were on CentOS 6 and then my server admin moved us to Debian. When we were on CentOS everything worked, we then made a backup of everything and once Debian was loaded he then got everything running again except for IP. Content. We have made sure we did everything correctly and the IPB tech said he wasn't sure what else we could try it should be working. Also a note when I enter the URL in the advanced area all of IP. Content breaks if I don't have …

Folks, I am running ip.board (and a dozen or so wordpress sites) off of my dedicated server in my business. I have a static IP. The current server is an OS X server (10.6 flavor). I have put together an Ubuntu server box, with just MYSQL installed. This second box is currently on a router on my home setup (Non-static ip) just for setting up purposes. Can anyone give me a general overview of getting this Linux box to act as a mysql server, accessed by my IP.board (and wordpress installations). I don't know if it is as simple as setting up a router on the static IP, or if there is more involved. Any pointers to how-tos or links explaining would be most helpful. Basicall…

I am attempting to facilitate a reasonable max upload size to my forums to allow members who cant be bothered to resize images the facility to load the largest images. Currently server side it is set at16mb which will easily swallow the largest image sizes, which by default using IPB setting are being nicely resized to a reasonable memory size. The issue I have is that images up to about 6 mb load but anything larger creates a website not responding due to a long running script error. Can this be tweaked server side to prevent this or is this a browser issue ?

Host experienced a hardware failure 3 days ago and their backups were also affected ... Now that they have the server back online the backups they have are not loading the site correctly. I am getting > Driver Error ... There appears to be an error with the database. When I check the log file I see numerous lines that say > Error: 1054 - Unknown column 'member_id' in 'where clause' Does ipboard have any files that will check the integrity of the database? Really hoping I can salvage my database as I did not have a backup of it :( Thanks!

Hi everyone ! Actually, I'm the owner of a French website named Manga Destiny (http://www.mangadestiny.com/ for the welcome page or http://www.mangadestiny.com/index.php?app=forums for forum index) and, regarding Alexa's traffic analytics, it is very slow (says 88% of site are faster, and that page load is now 3.621 Seconds). So... I was wondering what to do. Is it due to the fact we have a great database, with lots of stuff ? Or may it be because of my shared hosting plan (Baby plan, hosted by HostGator) ? How may I speed up my website ? Many thanks to all of you ! :D

Hi! We run a forum using IP.Board, and after the upgrade to 3.4.2. we have a problem when trying to transfer between servers. Previously we did upgrades on an offline server, and once complete simple transfered database and files to the production server. However, after the 3.4.2 upgrade we get an HTTP Error 500 Internal server error when trying to transfer, with no further error messages in logs (we've checked apache, php error logs and more). Any ideas on how to fix the problem would be highly appreciated!

I am switching hosts and the new one is all the way back on mySQL 5.0 and my current one was 5.5! Is it going to be too annoying getting the database transferred and compatible? I will see if they have other versions they can put me on, but who knows.

I've been searching the net and can't find any conclusive way to do what I'd like to do, the following things: 1) Setup a daily cpanel full backup with a cronjob. 2) Same as 1, but to then send the backup via FTP to a storage server. I'd be happy enough with #1, but #2 would be great. Any ideas? I have next to no knowledge of coding. Thanks.
