With one of our websites which has MediaGallery 1.5.1 installed we get the following error when we try to add a picture to a media album.

Text Formatted Code

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: stripos() in /home/hosting/public_html/domain/mediagallery/getid3/getid3/getid3.php on line 17


Does anybody knows where this problem comes from, we had no problems with installation ....?

By the way we run Geeklog 1.5.1 ...

stripos is only available as of PHP 5. My guess is you're on an older version.

True my hosting is not yet upgraded to PHP 5, is it possible to work around it?

If it does what I think it does (trying to protect a file against direct execution), then you could either change the stripos to a plain strpos if you're on Unix/Linux with a filesystem that is case-sensitive. Otherwise, also use strpos but stick an strtolower in there, like we do in Geeklog 1.5.1 now. For example:
Text Formatted Code
if (strpos(strtolower($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']), 'lib-plugins.php') !== false) {
    die('This file can not be used on its own!');
}

bye, Dirk

Place this in you lib-custom.php:
Text Formatted Code

if (!function_exists('stripos'))
{
    require_once('PHP/Compat.php');

    PHP_Compat::loadFunction('stripos');
}
