Here are the important details:

Pun version: 1.3.2
db: MySQL
server: Apache/2.0.52 (Red Hat)

httpdocs\{forum-root}    ~ http://{base-url}  -> working perfectly
httpsdocs\{forum-root}  ~ https://{base-url} -> authentication issues

The https is kind of working. If already logged into the http version you can can the url to https and browse the forum and read posts no problem. If you try and post you recieve the error msg:

Warning! The following errors must be corrected before your message can be posted:

    * Unable to confirm security token. A likely cause for this is that some time passed between when you first entered the page and when you posted the form. Clicking "Submit" again should solve the problem.

Clicking Submit again just repeats the message.

The real issue. When logged out of a session and trying to log into the https version of the login page you get the following messages on the login.php page:

Please confirm or cancel your last action

Unable to confirm security token. A likely cause for this is that some time passed between when you first entered the page and when you submitted a form or clicked a link. If that is the case and you would like to continue with your action, please click the Confirm button. Otherwise, you should click the Cancel button to return to where you were. 

'Confirm' 'Cancel' (buttons)

When clicking confirm you get the following Security Warning popup:

Although this page is encrypted, the information you have entered is to be sent over an unencrypted connection and could easily be read by a third party.

Are you sure you want to continue sending this information?

After clicking the Continue button I am redirected to this url:

http://{base-url}:443/login.php

with the following message:

Bad Request

Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.
Reason: You're speaking plain HTTP to an SSL-enabled server port.
Instead use the HTTPS scheme to access this URL, please.

    Hint: https://127.0.0.1/

Apache/2.0.52 (Red Hat) mod_ssl/2.0.52 OpenSSL/0.9.7a FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server at 127.0.0.1 Port 443

Is it a matter of getting the above url to read

https://{base-url}/login.php

minus the :443 or is it something more complicated.

Here is the config.php file for the https install (which was just copied directly from the http install with the config file changed accordingly)

<?php

$db_type = 'mysql';
$db_host = 'xx';
$db_name = 'xx';
$db_username = 'xx';
$db_password = 'xx';
$db_prefix = '';
$p_connect = false;

$base_url = 'https://url.org';

$cookie_name = 'forum_cookie_5ca60a';
$cookie_domain = '';
$cookie_path = '/';
$cookie_secure = 0;

define('FORUM', 1);

I was mainly trying different combination of $base_url, $cookie_domain and $cookie_secure = 0 or 1 but to no avail. I have a feeling it's something fairly simple in the config file that has to be properly set. After searching for a while I couldn't find any previous anwsers to this problem if they exist.

Sorry for the length of this post if you read through it all. I thought it'd be best to include as much relevant details as possible. Apologies if this is in the wrong section, mods please move if it's not.

Thanks for taking up your time value time. I look forward to any help or hints in the right direction that anyone can provide.

If the solution is something trivial please take great pleasure in pointing it out and I shall act sufficiently bashful

I just installed the new Pun Poll extension (version 1.1.7.), but I'm struggling to change its language.

How am I suppose to do that? Even if I change de lang file in the extension folder, it makes no difference. Is there something I'm missing?

Some members got an error trying to change them :

"Count of options can't be less than 2"

What it means ?

mysite.bla/img/header.png

seen the 1.2 info, but header.php is different in 1.3.x

Thanks.

I am about to upgrade the forum from 1.2 to 1.3 but while testing I have found I have to click the index link on ie7, mozilla after logging in to get the error message to go away. I found ie8 nothing you click makes it go away.

I dont suffer these issues with 1.2 on any browser so I would really like to know what changed from 1.2 to cause this anomolly in 1.3 so I dont have anoyyed users.

I can't ask them to try all listed ideas I have read nor ask them to change browsers if the issues never existed prior to 1.3 can I.

the problem: if i click any link on index.php it generates an absolute path to http://localhost/forum/..
so it doesnt work as hidden .onion service anymore. (fheiuhf83f09f3f9.onion/forum/...)
i think i need the board working with relative paths to get it work properly.

any hints?

thanks for help!

help,

Help me Friends.

I know the extern.php can display alot of stuff but I can only see how it displays the topic?

I want to have just like the punbb.org website

This is a topc
This is the message it self...bla bla bla
posted date | comments

next message...and so forth...can it be done with extern.php or must I do the rest with php/mysql code?

define('FORUM_ROOT', './community/');
require_once FORUM_ROOT.'include/common.php';

The issue I am running into is if we try to post a form on the site (outside of the forum directory) it seems to trigger a series of events and loads the community/header.php etc...

Obviously this interferes with everything else which is being loaded as it is outside of the workings of the forum..

Is there a simple method I can implement to prevent this without breaking the internal workings of PunBB

thanks in advance
John

DO I need to change their file permissions?

THanks
