Thanks Jim!

Unfortunately, my community no longer has much activity and the cost is not something our club can continue to afford. What is the best way for me to archive the forum (database, contents) so that at some point in the future we could potentially spin up a new license / copy and restore it? Related - I cannot see how I cancel my license renewal in the client area. Do I just take the forum offline?

Also having the same issue running on 4.7.18.

I'll take a look for next upgrade.

I just upgraded - it was two versions out of date according to "Get Support" in the admin CP.

I recall on previous versions of IPB a blue (or sometimes red) banner / notification would appear when logged into the board as administrator and a software update was available. I don't seem to get those banners anymore. Were they removed or am I missing something?

Appears to have stopped and the "repeated log message" warning under support tab is gone. Thanks!

Repeated item showing up in my logs. Unclear what this is / what I should do. The URL of the page that the error occured on does change at the &url=xyz

Thank you Marc.

Invision Community - any further thoughts on this? I can reproduce when I set max image dimensions to save in the IBP settings. I believe that eliminates an issue with the resizing that happens in iOS, right? If max image dimensions are off and the "resized" and HEIC > JPEG conversion is done in iOS the photo rotates correctly. If IPB does a resize then the image rotates incorrectly.

Thanks Randy! Your exif looks the same as mine and you have photos set to resize. Have you tried uploading a photo larger than 1200x1200?

@Randy Calvert do you resize your images via IPB? System > Settings > Posting > Maximum image dimensions to save.

Further testing ... if I set "Maximum image dimensions to save" to unlimited it seems to work regardless of HEIC ("high efficiency") or JPEG ("most compatible") setting on iOS. I've tested with the original "wheel" photo and I've tested with a number of photos I have taken myself. Every time I try on my vanilla Ubuntu 22.04 install with maximum dimensions set to "unlimited" in IPS it works. Every time I restrict the max dimensions in IPS it fails.

can you share a screenshot of the exif section of phpinfo?

Circling back on this - I just installed a fresh Ubuntu 22.04 server and have a test forum up and running. Uploading the same image and it is not rotating. I can successfully rotate it from CLI. I noticed that when I view exif data from CLI it indicates exif version 2.21 on photo. phpinfo indicates support for version 220 which I understand equates to 2.20. Does hosted IPB have a php compiled that supports a newer version of exif data?
