Subject: [geeklog-users] PHP in static block 1.3.9sr1, static page 1.4
Message-ID: <288CB304-4423-11D9-80FF-000D93AD20F4@mac.com>

Hi,

I'm having a problem with embedding php code into a static page block, 
using the centerblock option. The code displays OK, but the site header 
and left blocks don't appear. The right blocks appear below the static 
page. I have tried this using both the second and third php option 
(return and execute).

Static pages without php work fine on my install.

Any ideas?

Here's a code snippet (generate_obfuscated_mailto is a custom function 
to hide the e-mail addresses and is located in lib-custom.php):

$retval ='';
$retval .= '
<table align="center" border="1">
	<tr>
		<td>President</td>
		<td>Name<br>
			Location<br>' .
			generate_obfuscated_mailto ('e-mailaddy','e-mail me')  .'</td>
	</tr>

</table>';

Thanks in advance,

Norm

Never mind. Figured it out right after sending my request. Sorry.

Blaine, FWIW, I don't see upgrade instructions for 2.3 in the upgrade 
section of the forum installation document.  I see a blurb about 2.3 RC 
releases but not 2.3.  Am I missing something?

If you have the final version of the 2.3.2 release and not a RC version then 
the following is in the install_doc under Upgrade:
Existing Version 2.3 Forum Users:

  1.. There are No SQL changes.

  2.. Copy over the updated files

    a.. Replace all files as per the install steps or review the changed 
file list  changes_2.3.1.txt

  3.. Copy the lib-portalparts.php to your geeklog-dir/system folder

  4.. Copy the themefiles/navbar files to {yourtheme} directory - each theme 
directory

    a.. Example XSilver/nabar

  5.. Update your theme CSS - added new CSS for the Admin Navbar

Hrm, ok, lemme look.  I'm upgrading Iowa Outdoors as we speak and I have 
two copies of the forum code so I won't rule out the possibility I was 
in the wrong folder.

Subject: [geeklog-users] Several RSS feeds within a primary feed
Message-ID: <000801c4df01$37551260$8a811c0c@breddie>

Hi, 
Am building a feed for the viewers of my website. Have found several free feeds from other locations that relate to the content of my site. These feeds contain on average around 8-10 items per feed. 

What I want to do is make my own feed the 'umbrella' under which all other feeds are listed. For example: 

PRIMARY FEED 
Channel Title: Too much Stress- Anxiety- Burnout? 
Item #1. Feed from an outside location 
Item #2. Feed from another outside location 
Item #3. Feed from yet another outside location...and so on. 

In using this procedure, there are no publishing infringement issues because the above mentioned feeds are offered free so long as each points back to its original author. 

However, this procedure raises several questions: 

(1.) Is it incorrect to make each item a feed unto itself? 
(2.) Will doing so create bandwidth problems? Other problems? 
(3.) Would it be better instead if each Item contained only 1 article from each of those 'outside' feeds? 

So far, I've not found anyone who will (or can) answer these questions...so I'm hoping to luck out here at Geeklog. 

Thanks for you help!

Subject: [geeklog-users] GL2 Framework
Message-ID: <41BDBE33.9080406@tonybibbs.com>

I've yet to hear anything substantive since the original 12/2 email I 
sent on the topic.  In the interest of time I'm going to move on but it 
is worth noting one thing.  The GL2 progress has been embarassingly 
slow.  I take full accountablity for this.  This latest effort to move 
forward on the codebase will be my last. ..if things stagnate again I 
will formally put my GL coding days behind me and leave the entire long 
term vision of GL to Dirk.  To help keep things moving I am hoping to 
delegate as much work as possible to those with more time...however you 
might note that quality help is a rare commodity.  The progress that can 
be made is directly tied the help I cant count on.  I've had a number of 
nibbles from people willing to help but none of them panned out, nearly 
all sighting time commitments.  So to expand on what I have already 
said, unless I can get other developers to devote some amount of time to 
GL2 I will need to officially kill the notion of GL2.  To that end I am 
setting a Februrary 1st deadline for myself and any that choose to help 
on producing the complete GL2 framework code so that plugin development 
can begin.  Anything short of that I will view as failure.

I've cc'd the users mailing list in the hopes that some on that list 
might consider contributing to GL2. 

My apologies if this all sounded a bit dramatic...I simply wanted to, 
one last time, assert my hopes to get the project moving and my 
willingness to step aside for the lack of progress.

Ok, it's in CVS but it wasn't pretty.  In short, I have no f*cking clue 
how CVS branches work and all the Googling in the world didn't help.  
Given I have no need for the old PHP4 version of the code I simply 
deleted the repository and import the new, good stuff.

We may want to consider using Subversion instead of CVS for GL2...I'm 
really tired of the vague nuances of CVS.

I've been using subversion for all my content versioning needs for the
past month or so.  It has my vote if you're willing to move to it. :)

Message-ID: <41C1BB47.5090905@btiadmin.net>

Hello,

I'm a bit confused.  When a user posts a story on my GL site, it has to 
be "moderated."  When I log in to approve a story, the time listed for 
the story is two hours earlier than when the story was actually 
submitted.  And once approved, the time is off by two hours.

My server is in the same time zone as I am, and the time is set properly 
on the server.  So I don't _think_ the "Timezone Hack" I saw in the 
forums applies here, but I'm not sure.

Any hints?

Thanks,
Jason

Hello again.

Never mind.  I think I have found my problem.  The time on the web 
server was perfect.  The time on the SQL server, another box entirely, 
was off by hours.

When you say SQL Server I assume you mean the MySQL server.  I didn't 
want to give users the false impression that Geeklog runs under 
Microsoft SQL Server.

LOL... you're right.  MySQL.  I haven't wasted my time hacking GLto work 
in MS SQL Server.

Thanks,

Read Theme FAQ. Followed directions to copy professional into a folder then 
copied Blue Evolution. Made changes.

When I select:
1) email story url is http://example.com/article.php/20041216210943375
2) print story url is: http://example.com/article.php/20041216210943375/print
3) article read more url is: http://example.com/article.php/20041216111925490
4) link in web resources url is:  
http://example.com/portal.php/link/2004121611341696 

In each instance, the message error is:

"Object Not Found!'  The requested URL was not found on this server. The link 
on the referring page seems to be wrong or outdated. Please inform the author 
of that page  about the error.

How do I correct this?

I've seen this with quite a few themes in the past.  I'm guessing that 
the themes are just sort of half-baked and not all the required files 
are present.

I've fixed it by copying the missing files from a similar theme into the 
new theme directory.

Just guessing, that might not be your problem.

It definitely does not support LDAP natively.  I have not heard of a
LDAP plugin either, but one may exist that I don't know about.

Message-ID: <A511CC08-5542-11D9-A177-0003939F0CD2@anavidesign.com>

Strange thing this is. I moved my install of GeekLog to a new server 
today and at first thought that everything had gone smoothly. I copied 
the files and the database over and adjusted the config files to 
accommodate the file structure of the new server. The site came up fine 
and everything looked right. Users were able to log in and all of the 
data was being displayed correctly. Later, however, when I tried to 
create a new account and when I tried to edit a static page, I 
discovered that I cannot edit or create anything. For example, when I 
go to the Users admin panel and click "New User" the page just 
refreshes instead of taking me to the add new user form. Another 
example is when I try to edit the text on a static page. After editing 
the content in the webform, I submit the page and everything appears to 
function as it normally does, but when I return to the page to see the 
changes, none of them "took" and it appears as it originally did.

I gave gone though the config files exhaustively looking for something 
that I missed... something that could be different from how it was 
before, when it was working on the other server... and am at a loss.

Does anyone have any ideas? or any pointers of where I might look?

I am running GeekLog 1.3.9sr2.

The first thing to check is to make sure that new server has
register_globals enabled.  If you haven't already, you should make
sure that your browser's cookies and cache have been cleared out.

It is a silly, even stupid note, but I've made that mistake before ;-)

Ah, yes, register globals! I had completely forgotten that GL required 
those. I turned it on and it appears that everything is good to go. 
Thanks for you help.

Subject: [geeklog-users] geeklog performance
Message-ID: <41D2B815.5060907@robinbowes.com>

Hi,

I wonder if anyone could help me out with a performance problem I'm 
having with my geeklog site (http://robinbowes.com)?

According to the timing at the bottom of the page, the front page takes 
between 1.5-2 seconds to create, which I think is rather slow. Some 
topic pages load in around 0.5/0.6 seconds, but I think even that is a 
little slow.

The box is a dual CPI PIII with 1.5GB RAM.
Storage is software RAID created from 6x250GB SATA drives.
System is Fedora Core 3, with apache 2.0.52, php 4.3.9, mysql 4.1.7.
geeklog is latest from CVS as of about 1 hour ago.

Load average is barely above 0.0, 375MB RAM is used (excluding cache and 
buffers).

I've tried disabling plugins (RDF blocks, images, etc) but that didn't 
seem to make much difference.

Any sugestions?

R.

Most of the load is, undoubtedly, on the database.  Do you have MySQL's 
query cache feature enabled and optimally configured?  I'd start there.  
I'd also strongly encourage using a php accelerator like APC:

http://pecl.php.net/package/APC

I'm hoping you aren't doing either of those yet and if that is the case 
you can expect significant improvements from both.

FWIW my site, http://www.iowaoutdoors.org is averaging around 1.5 load 
times on the homepage and significantly worse in the forums.  Only thing 
I have going for me is a fast pipe to the server.  Performance is going 
to continue to be an issue in the foreseeable future.

Just a side note, we really should contact the groklaw.net folks and
try to figure out which (if any) of the changes they made to speed up
groklaw.net are implementable in geeklog.  I'm sure they have at least
a few tricks for speeding things up.

Tony,

I'm already using turck-mmcache but not cached queries.

I turned on cached queries and didn't see any noticeable speed up. I use 
the following settings in my.cnf:

query_cache_type=1
query_cache_size=20M

It's definitely turned on:

mysql> show variables like '%query_cache%';
+------------------------------+----------+
| Variable_name                | Value    |
+------------------------------+----------+
| have_query_cache             | YES      |
| query_cache_limit            | 1048576  |
| query_cache_min_res_unit     | 4096     |
| query_cache_size             | 20971520 |
| query_cache_type             | ON       |
| query_cache_wlock_invalidate | OFF      |
+------------------------------+----------+
6 rows in set (0.00 sec)

If I load my home page a few times I see the following cache status:

mysql> show status like 'Qcache%';

8 rows in set (0.00 sec)

So, I'm getting cache hits, but it doesn't seem to be making much 
difference.

Any further suggestions?

Hi,

I've looked at your site a couple of times over the last couple of days 
and from what I can see, your link is just slow, I don't think you'll 
speed it up a lot by changing anything related to PHP, MySQL or even 
Geeklog! Your network connection is slow.

Another issue to consider is the outbreak of the new variant of the Santy
worm (also known as PhpInclude worm or Spyki) which is now attacking all
PHP scripts (not just phpBB). 

Check your logfiles for unusually long requests, often with "LWP::Simple"
as the user agent. This can slow down a site considerably. I posted some
countermeasures over on geeklog-devel:

<http://lists.geeklog.net/pipermail/geeklog-devtalk/2004-December/000767.html>

This site lists some more: <http://castlecops.com/article5642.html>

bye, Dirk
