Package: phpbb3 Version: 3.0.2-4 Severity: normal Tags: patch Hi,
Persistent/automatic logins were not working for me on a brand new install. After debugging, it turns out that request_var() in functions.php does not return cookie contents. I searched around and found this explanation: http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=1725065&start=0 which suggests applying the patches in revisions 9728 and 9729: http://code.phpbb.com/repositories/diff/phpbb/branches/phpBB-3_0_0/phpBB/includes/functions.php?rev=9728 http://code.phpbb.com/repositories/diff/phpbb/branches/phpBB-3_0_0/phpBB/includes/functions.php?rev=9729 After applying both patches, automatic logins work fine. -jim -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages phpbb3 depends on: ii apache2-mpm-prefork [httpd] 2.2.14-5 Apache HTTP Server - traditional n ii dbconfig-common 1.8.44 common framework for packaging dat ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.28 Debian configuration management sy ii libapache2-mod-php5 5.3.1-5 server-side, HTML-embedded scripti ii mysql-client 5.1.41-3 MySQL database client (metapackage ii mysql-client-5.1 [mysql-clien 5.1.41-3 MySQL database client binaries ii php5-mysql 5.3.1-5 MySQL module for php5 Versions of packages phpbb3 recommends: ii exim4 4.71-3 metapackage to ease Exim MTA (v4) ii exim4-daemon-light [mail-tran 4.71-3 lightweight Exim MTA (v4) daemon ii php5-gd 5.3.1-5 GD module for php5 pn php5-imagick | php4-imagick <none> (no description available) Versions of packages phpbb3 suggests: ii mysql-server 5.1.41-3 MySQL database server (metapackage ii mysql-server-5.1 [mysql-serve 5.1.41-3 MySQL database server binaries -- debconf information: * phpbb3/database-type: mysql phpbb3/remote/newhost: phpbb3/mysql/admin-user: root phpbb3/remote/host: phpbb3/pgsql/manualconf: phpbb3/dbconfig-remove: phpbb3/db/basepath: phpbb3/internal/reconfiguring: false phpbb3/httpd: apache phpbb3/internal/skip-preseed: false phpbb3/db/app-user: phpbb3 phpbb3/remove-error: abort phpbb3/pgsql/authmethod-user: phpbb3/dbconfig-reinstall: false phpbb3/db/dbname: phpbb3 phpbb3/upgrade-error: abort phpbb3/pgsql/admin-user: postgres phpbb3/install-error: abort phpbb3/upgrade-backup: true phpbb3/remote/port: phpbb3/pgsql/authmethod-admin: ident phpbb3/dbconfig-upgrade: true phpbb3/pgsql/no-empty-passwords: phpbb3/purge: false * phpbb3/dbconfig-install: true phpbb3/mysql/method: unix socket phpbb3/passwords-do-not-match: phpbb3/missing-db-package-error: abort phpbb3/pgsql/changeconf: false phpbb3/pgsql/method: unix socket -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
