Hi All,

I've succesfully installed Geeklog to my hosted space (hosted by www.oneandone.co.uk).

I am however experiencing an error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: isvalidinetaddress() in /homepages/3/d83945532/htdocs/www.dummy.co.uk/public_html/lib-common.php on line 3118

I've changed the path and domain name here, but I've checked them, they are correct.

I've also checked lib-common.php, it's not corrupt and is in the Unix style of text files.

The error appears to manifest whenever an e-mail is sent from the site.

The server is running PHP 4.2.3 and I've set Geelog to use the Geeklog included PEAR library.

I am running Geeklog 1.3.9 rc1.

Does anyone have a suggestion on how to progress?

Thanks,

Matt.

A search brings up:

You can try the fix there and see if it works.

The problem occurs when running 1.3.9rc1 on a PHP version older than 4.3.0. In lib-common.php, around line 198, you have

Text Formatted Code
    $curPHPIncludePath = ini_get( 'include_path' );                            

    if( ini_set( 'include_path', $_CONF['path_pear'] . PATH_SEPARATOR          

                                 . $curPHPIncludePath ) === false )

The problem is that PATH_SEPARATOR exists only as of PHP 4.3.0. Replace it with ':' (if your on a Unix system - ';' for Windows):

Text Formatted Code
    $curPHPIncludePath = ini_get( 'include_path' );                            

    if( ini_set( 'include_path', $_CONF['path_pear'] . ':'          

                                 . $curPHPIncludePath ) === false )

bye, Dirk

Thanks for the quick and positive replies Guys.

I'll attempt the second fix suggested (PATH_SEPARATOR to ':') this evening (when I have access to the site).

I'll report back on my success/failure then....

Best Regards, Matt.

Hi All,

Just to report on how I got on. I changed lib-common.php as Dirk suggested above.

This solved the problem I was seeing.

But when I tried to signup a new user I saw the following error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /homepages/blah/www.dummy.co.uk/public_html/lib-common.php on line 3211

I overcame this by changing the 'backend' setting in config.php from 'mail' to 'sendmail'.

It all seems to work fine now.

Thanks for your help Dirk.

Regards,

Matt.

I have this:

Text Formatted Code

198-203

    $curPHPIncludePath = ini_get( 'include_path' );

    if( defined( 'PATH_SEPARATOR' ))

    {

        $separator = PATH_SEPARATOR;

    }

So I must change to this?:

Text Formatted Code

    $curPHPIncludePath = ini_get( 'include_path' );

    if( defined( ':' ))

    {

        $separator = ':';

    }

No, you shouldn't need to change anything. You are running 1.3.9rc2 where that bug has been fixed.

Which version of PHP are you on? What's your setting for $_CONF['have_pear'] (i.e. are you using the PEAR classes installed on your server or the ones that ship with Geeklog)?
