I'm trying to create a static page and get this error.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in /home/super-cr/system/lib-webservices.php on line 520

I've tried uploading a fresh copy of the file, no luck.

Hmm. Are you trying to create the static page from within Geeklog? Since that function should only be executed when you're using the webservice (AtomPub).

Also: Which PHP version are you on?

bye, Dirk

Is this a recent change? I've never used an AtomPub service and have created other static pages. Having a "Create New" link under the static pages makes little sense if this is the case.

My php version is 5.2.5

There's a bugfix in 1.5.2 that pulls in the lib-webservices.php to do a check. It seems to have something to do with that. Looking into it ...

bye, Dirk

Thanks Dirk,

I'll stay tuned for updates.

Hmm, are you sure? This is a bug, but I can only reproduce it on PHP 4 ...

Here's a quick fix:

- open plugins/staticpages/services.inc.php
- search for lib-webservices.php and remove the required_once line (in function service_submit_staticpages)
- search for WS_makeId and change the line where you find it to read

Need to find a better (and compatible) solution for the final 1.5.2 ...

bye, Dirk

Absolutely sure on the version, checked it just before I posted. I'll try the fix and let you know how it goes.

Just changed the line and am still getting the same error. Just checked the PHP version again to make 100% sure and it is definitely 5.2.5 at least that's what the control panel on my site says.

There are two changes you need to make. See above.

bye, Dirk

Sorry I missed that first bit of info before, I was in a rush to get out the door.

The changes worked. Thanks Dirk.
