Icy Phoenix

Hi, Icy people, long time no see :mrorange:
First of all, I want to congratulate MG and all of the contributors on this brand new release. Way to go, guys :loveit:

Also, I would like to start a new thread about problem that appeared on my board after an upgrade to 1.3.0.53.
Update from 1.2.0.27 went smoothly, at the first look it was all OK. But when I tried to open one of the forums, boom - I got the blank page. Then I tried to open some topic directly (via viewtopic.php), and the same thing happened. And it happens with every forum or topic I tried to open. Home page itself looks OK, all posts are there and displayed normally. Also, all forums and categories are displayed on main forum.php page, problem appears only when I try to open some of them. All other modules and standard pages work perfectly, only those called through viewforum.php and viewtopic.php are giving a blank output.

I uploaded package once again, just to avoid a possibility of corruption during upload, problem stayed. I doublechecked file and folder permissions (even install script confirms that everything is OK with CHMOD), problem stayed. I checked auth_access (even truncated this one) and forum tables in database, everything seems normal. Cache was cleared many many times, but the problem stayed. I tried all of the applicable solutions for blank pages mentioned on icyphoenix.com, but to no avail.

So basically, I have "almost" fully functional portal, which works as usual, BUT as long as you don't open page that call viewforum.php and viewtopic.php.

After all these tries, I updated to 1.3.0.53a, update also went smooth, but after replacing files with the ones from the patch, whole site goes blank. Searching the forums, i found tat it could be caused by new common.php file, so i tried to narrow it down, and found a critical line. It was new timezone function MG introduced in patch (line 144):



Aftef I commented that line the site came back, but the abovementioned problem with viewing forums and topics still exists. BTW, that was only change I did to original 1.3.0.53a files. And here are some environment data:

Version of Icy Phoenix: 1.3.0.53a
Version of PHP: 4.4.7
Version of MySQL: 4.0.27-standard
Size of the database: 33.15 MB
Gzip compression: ON

I have run out of ideas for fixing this one (during 3 sleeples nights :cry: ). Could some of you guys try to figure this one and help me out? Also, if there is something I forgot to mention, just ask :).

Take care and keep the IP going :wink:

Hi !

Try to go adm/erc.php and do some fix ...

Hi, Informpro that was lightning fast :wink:

But unfortunately, I already tried all those fixes (through erc.php and some of them again manually), but still no change. Blanks are still there :oops:

Well, was this some kind of epiphany, or what :shock:
After posting this issue, I stumbled across this topic:
And there was the solution. Although in ACP » General » Force Topic Read » Deactivate FTR » I disabled FTR function, apparently it wasn't enough. I had to disable MASTER FTR switch (set ACP » Config » Icy Phoenix » Posting and Messages » Completely disable Force Topic Read » switch
to YES), and after that everything went back to normal. No more blank pages on viewforum.php and viewtopic.php.
