This is a problem with CrackTracker catching the 'sent'.

Look for:
Code: Select all
define( 'IN_PHPBB', true );


Then insert below:
Code: Select all
define('CT_SECLEVEL', 'MEDIUM');$ct_ignorepvar = array('sent');


That should fix you up. But before you do so, turn on CrackTracker debug and hop into chat. Use chat for a few minutes even if it doesn't work. View the CrackTracker debug logfile, to verify the issue was with 'sent'. Sorry I can't show my log, but I clear that log for my own debugging purposes periodically.

The change I suggested took place in <forum>chatspotmessage_interpreter.php.

Nope, still doesn't work, thanks for the help though, Iv notice the room is also always loading, when do to send a message, i notice in the status bar, it goes writing for a second and then goes to reading, i also cannot switch to a different chat room, Refresh page works though. iv left it on for a few min with no debug errors, also tried it from Firefox to Internet explorer with same issue, any idea?
Edit:// also another thing i noticed is the window where the text should show up at shows the system message and if ur mouse is over it, it has the arrow with hourglass in it, just an observation if it helps, iv also tried recreating the Databases in mysql for chatspot and re-uploading all the files and messing with chimed on the chatspot stuff, and verified all my chmod is correct for the whole server.

Just an FYI. I had the problem with a decent amount of my chats not sending the messages correctly. I added in the code from Omni-Lee and it worked.

Thanks!

I already have this script in the file that omni-lee suggest. When I type and hit enter nothing displays. This is a complaint from all users who attempt to use the chat function.

The chat has worked well in the past but not anymore and I have made no script changes since the ;last time it worked..

what mods are on your board? You dont have to edit the chat js to cause it to fail. If you add another js or include a file.js for a different mod that uses the same vars it will just hang.

Thats what I am saying, I have not added anything since original install.

I have noticed that all my integramod installs are behaving the same way. The chat spot is no longer displaying the sent messages.

Since it is more than one site and I have not changed anything I am left to assume that it is a server side issue out of my hands.

I use Bluehost if any one has a clue I would appreciate the help.

try this updated version. The old version uses many functions that were depreciated in php 5.3.0.

rename your current chatspot folder. Unzip the attached file and upload the contents to your forum, over-writing your current files.
browse to http://www.your domain/ChatSpot_db_update.php
go to acp/chatspot/Configuration and check and save your settings

Seems I'm having the same problem....but this is an old thread and I didn't see if the problem was solved or not. Does this fix the problem?

Ok, apparently it doesn't. I've adjusted for the deprecations in php, and ran everything successfully after making sure to back up the entire database before making changes.

Everything executed successfully, I have the new chat window, new options, etc...

But still no messages sending.

Any ideas?

[Edit] On a side note, CTracker didn't catch any problems with 'sent' variable on my site.
[Edit} Seems there's a problem with sessions. I noticed that even after logging out of chat, the portal block still shows me logged in. Deleted session via phpmyadmin and logged in/out again (still can't send msgs), and the sessions are not being flushed when logging out.

Also, getting a warning on your site right above my "Edit Post" box.
Code: Select all
Warning: ini_set() has been disabled for security reasons in /home/importal/public_html/forum/config.php on line 20

Then, at very top of page, I get Image

d.vanheeckeren

Are you running this on a local host server or a paid host?

If it is a paid host, that ini problem is because they have it disabled. If you speak to them they may enable it, but I doubt it as most never do.

If it is on a local host, you will simply need to edit your php.ini file.

As for the headers error, I found that most of the time I got that error, I had a white space before or after the closing php tags on a page that I edited.

On another note, I always quickly did away with chatspot chat and installed tufats Flash Chat. It is a paid .script that is like $5 . It integrated real nice with Integramod/ImPortal.
