Sorry to write again, but I am now in an admin loop that I can't get out of. I seem to have a mixture of 2.2 and 2.3.1 files in my guestbook.
I have spent a couple of hours checking out the other posts, but no real joy. Any suggestions?
Besides shooting myself in the head?

Hi I have done this,
Thanks so much for your help, both of you. Really did appreciate you holding my hand like this.

Fingers crossed all will be well now.

I tried that, changed gb_name as advised to gb_visitor, kept getting error "please enter your name" when testing as a new entry,no matter what I tried!
Cant get it to work for me!

Is that something he can patch in the next version?

Also I saw in the admin area when I was changing my password that it says enter current password when its supposed to say enter new password, the next box down it says confirm new password

mysql version is 4.1.8 standard it says.

That worked! thanks!
I checked phpmyadmin and the numbers under password have changed and it has a * as the first character

Hi
I downloaded the guestbook and had it all working before on another site, but now I can't seem to get it working on the site im currently working on!

First I log into my webspace and create a new mysql database, usually called Guestbook and give it a password (I've tried calling it guestbook_1 too) then I open up the config.inc.php

$GB_DB["dbName"] = "Guestbook";
$GB_DB["host"] = "localhost";
$GB_DB["user"] = "Guestbook";
$GB_DB["pass"] = "password";

(That isn't my real password I use and yes its the same password as my mysql database)

/* misc */

define('IS_MODULE', false); /* running as POST-Nuke 0.x or PHP-Nuke 5.x addon? */

$GB_PG["base_url"] = "http://www.fuzzydigital.co.uk/scripts/guestbook"; /* e.g http://www.yourdomain.com/guestbook */

$DB_CLASS = "mysql.class.php";
$TEC_MAIL = "mike@fuzzydigital.co.uk";
$GB_UPLOAD = "public";
$GB_TMP = "tmp";

^ Just showing what I edit in that file

I upload the guestbook folder

Then I goto : http://www.fuzzydigital.co.uk/scripts/guestbook/install.php
And fill in the details click create table (the other button returns an error message even when I haven't created the mysql database beforehand)

Then chmod the directories.

Then goto the admin page and type in test as username and 123 as password but it says invalid username and password.

I have phpBB2 working with a mysql database
In phpmyadmin I can see the username is test and the password is 773359240eb9a1d9 it also has session and last visit with some numbers too.

Its strange as it was working before on the same webhost (same account!), just with a different domain name

Thanks
Mike

I just figured it out....

Thanks !!!

Myriam

Thank you. I've made the changes to the 3 files (addentry, form, add.class) but there is something wrong.. I think with the form.php and I can't figure it out.

Can you please look what it did to my screen: http://www.koen-myriam.com/guestbook/addentry.php

What do I need to change to have it look "normal again", I have this black area on the right and no "name" field.

Thanks so much,
Myriam

I hate to say this, but...

No I haven't applied your patch, how do I do that and where can I get it.
A link to an answer would be fine as I hate to put you to even more trouble.

I am happy to do that, but my concern is the risk of getting hacked again.
I have disabled HTMl code, is that going to be enough do you think?

Have now re-instated my old 2.2 guestbook, while I try to solve this problem.

Will upload a second copy of it uing WSFTPro. Call it conversation1

Then the gbookphp.zip that I downloaded, I open in WS... and select each individual file including those in the subfolders and overwrite the original 2.2 contents with them. Right?

Then I make sure that tmp and public fiolders are 777. Right?

Then I open admin folder and edit the admin/config.inc.php file as shown in the page: http://proxy2.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3654

So:
$GB_DB["dbName"] = "databasename";
$GB_DB["host"] = "localhost";
$GB_DB["user"] = "databaseusername";
$GB_DB["pass"] = "databasepassword";

Should be changed to:
$GB_DB["dbName"] = "conversation1";
$GB_DB["host"] = "localhost"; *Does this stays as localhost or do I type something here?*
$GB_DB["user"] = "my admin username goes here";
$GB_DB["pass"] = "my admin password goes here";

Then further down where it says:
$GB_PG["base_url"] = "http://www.yoursite.com/guestbook";
$DB_CLASS = "mysql.class.php";
$TEC_MAIL = "email@yoursite.com";
$GB_UPLOAD = "public";
$GB_TMP = "tmp";

This changes to:

$GB_PG["base_url"] = "http://www.rickynelson.co.uk/conversation1";
$DB_CLASS = "mysql.class.php";
$TEC_MAIL = "email@yoursite.com"; *Change this to my e-mail*
$GB_UPLOAD = "public";
$GB_TMP = "tmp";

Is that right or should I be entering the same details as on my previous 2.2 admin/config.inc.php file

I have tried both.

Then I either download upgrade.zip or install.zip (which one should I be using?) Then which ever one it is I overwrite that into the folder conversation1

Then I go to either
www.rickynelson.co.uk/conversation1/install.php

or

www.rickynelson.co.uk/conversation1/upgrade.php (which one)

And then follow instructions

I can get to an area in install.php where it askes me for the info needed and then there are two choices
Create Table

Create New DB Table

Is this right and if so which should I be clicking
(Neither work mind!)

I know I'm doing something wrong (possibly several)
It shouldn't be this difficult.
Have searched the forum but still stuck.
Thanks for your help

thanks.

It works.

as to do my book of visits to translate for Portuguese, yours of the brail and presizo of the book for mine the site of my city...

Yes I was uploading the whole folder. What's the difference between uploading the whole folder and only uploading the files contained within?

Are there only certain files that I should be uploading?

Thanks for taking the time.
