Topic: The biggest PunBB?

I was just curious, aside from the official forums here, what are the biggest PunBB forums out there?

Rows: 74701
Size: 90.96 MB

but put it up during the summer(middle of july), and isn't open to the public ... yet smile

Rows: 103820
Size: 121.75 MB

Guess people will catch this pretty fast when I now have released the attachment mod big_smile

Re: The biggest PunBB?

Not bad. What's the purpose/theme of your boards?

Re: The biggest PunBB?

an inofficial forum for a computer sim (that's why I have an AC Cobra in my Avatar... I have made that car for that sim)... so I have over 300 files attached and so ... that's why the size of the db is large...

The reason for the small size is that it's only availble inside my LAN, it will go online soon tho.

Re: The biggest PunBB?

Pretty good for my board, although I can't seem to get a password emailed to me for this one smile The only problem I've ran into is a "unable to delete search results" that some members claim they get when they try to do searches, but I personally haven't ran into it yet. It does seem to operate quite well though, even when the boards have a heavy day. Highest amount of hits taken by that board in one day has been 50,000 impressions

Re: The biggest PunBB?

About the e-mail not working. I checked my SMTP server logs and I found a lot of:

Oct 12 21:46:15 [postfix/smtp] 21A94A2B4E: to=<gduncan229@aol.com>, relay=none, delay=3610, status=deferred (connect to mailin-04.mx.aol.com[64.12.136.153]: No route to host)

and a few:

Oct 15 12:00:00 [postfix/smtp] 21A94A2B4E: to=<gduncan229@aol.com>, relay=none, delay=227635, status=deferred (Name service error for name=aol.com type=MX: Host not found, try again)

Can't really say on which end the problem lies though.

The "Unable to delete search results" has been reported before. I have, however, not been able to replicate it. Do you think you could enable DEBUG in your forum and instruct your users to save the error message when/if they encounter the problem again?

Re: The biggest PunBB?

ok I got the error coding for you.

File: /usr/www/users/customs/forums/search.php
Line: 428

PunBB reported: Unable to delete search results
Database reported: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 's Dream','68.236.57.53','Crash006','171.75.52.181','68.48.165.1 (Errno: 1064)

Does that help?

That looks like a search that included a username which in turn includes a single ' . Perhaps :)

Re: The biggest PunBB?

Yes, of course! I have forgotten to run addslashes() on it.

gduncan: It will be fixed in the next version of PunBB. If you want to fix it yourself, open up search.php and go to line 426. Replace

$old_searches[] = '\''.$row[0].'\'';

with

$old_searches[] = '\''.addslashes($row[0]).'\'';

Thanks for the help in tracking this bug down.

Re: The biggest PunBB?

I just figured out why the e-mail to gduncan above never got through. My ISP (Telia) blocks all outgoing e-mail to aol.com as a part of their fight against spam. Go figure :)
