La Jobe

Hi everyone,

I've come to ask for your help because I've just taken over the management of our forum, and I'd like to migrate the forum from version 3.1.4 (yes I know it's been a while since there's been a major release) to a more recent version, but running on a version of php 7 not php 8. Looking around, I think I need to stop my migration to a version of ipb lower than 4.7 (if I'm not mistaken, this corresponds to the version using php 8).
Is there a way to find a file with migration only up to this version? I only have the latest version of ipb from my client area.

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Ok I found how to make this, thanks for your patience.

But this field to be filled in is only a title? Don't I have to give it as a key?

I have already created a key with well defined endpoints. Do I have to give the name of this key in my GET request?

Does anyone know how to resolve this ?

Thanks in advance.

I have configured, in my oAuth client, my endpoint. However, when I make a GET request, I give it my access token. But to configure my endpoint, I had to create a key with my desired endpoint. Do I have to give this key too? Or the access token is enough.

Hi everyone,

I am trying to connect my website to my forum, therefore I want to use the logins of my forum on my website.

When my user logs in, he enters his forum credentials, and I go through an oAuth system to check if those credentials are good.

I manage to retrieve a custom access token, but when I request GET with the bearer authorization, where I enter the retrieved access_token, the system returns :
 
{
    "errorCode": "2S291/3",
    "errorMessage": "NO_PERMISSION"
}

Does anyone know why the system is denying me access?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry, I made a mistake, the error code is 2S291\/7 and not 2S291/3

Thanks.

Yes, rewrites are enabled on my server.

Hello everyone, I am developing a small forum and I need to generate API keys to access the information of my forum on my website (retrieve members,...). However, when I generate my keys from the admin interface, it gives me the following message:
"The API endpoint is not giving the expected response. Check you followed the instructions correctly."
I followed the tutorial as indicated, I renamed my .htaccess file and put it in the right folder /api .
Is there anything else to do?

Thank you very much for your answer.

Sincerely

What tables do you have in which there is a word - status?

I found it, but I don't have any duplicate columns. I have "status_id" and "status_author_id".
But, namely, I have several databases with the same structure. Is this where it comes from?

I have a question, which may seem silly, but do we have to go through version 3.4.7 to upgrade to version 4?

Try to find "core_member_status_updates" 

In my database, I have "core_" tables but no "core_member_status_updates" table

There's a core_member_status_updates database table in 4.x

 

BTW, are you sure that you're upgrading from 3.4??? The step in your error indicates you're on IPB 3.2

 

Sorry, I got my applications mixed up.
The forum version is 3.2 and not 3.4.

@La Jobe if you still have access to ACP, I prefer to disable all plugin and application by third-party and try again. If the issue occur again, then you should submit a ticket to IPS staff. 

I disable all third party plugins and the problem is still there. I have already contacted the IPS staff for more information.

Open PHPMy Admin - find in your database table "members_status_updates"

Find these two columns with this name - status_author_id, and delete one column

Continue with the upgrade

Looking through all my databases, I could not find any "members_status_updates" table. Is this normal ?

Hello,

We are currently updating our forum. We are doing this upgrade manually, but the error "Duplicate column name 'status_author_id' " occurred during the process. Does anyone know what this is due to? If so, what should we do to fix it?

Thank you in advance for your reply

I have just used the Valtasar's script that run slow (+6h to complete) but smooth. Thanks, for this great Job !

To fix the "mysql has gone away" error message (that happened opening my 260.000+ posts on ibf_posts table), i modified the php.ini with "mysql.connect_timeout = 600"

After a successful conversion (+ modify the class_db_mysql… 2 files) i now have 2 problems :

1/ The display looks like this : <{F_NAV}> <{F_NAV_SEP}>Forum Category<{F_NAV_SEP}>Forum name

2/ I can't log in in the PCAdmin because of a "Email address or password incorrect" error. Of course i know my log/pass by heart (and it's in automatic completion)

How can i rebuild caches without login in the PCA ?
How can i fix the login problem ?

Thanks for your help

[Edit] : i'm using IPB 2.3.6, not Converge and all this running on a local copy (with a hosts file targeting the real domain name on 127.0.0.1)
