As far as I understand, you have sources written by somebody and you want to know if all sources are released under GPL. Am I right?

Actually, it is not required by GPL. Everything depends on the connection between PunBB and other sources.

http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.htm … tarySystem:

However, in many cases you can distribute the GPL-covered software alongside your proprietary system. To do this validly, you must make sure that the free and non-free programs communicate at arms length, that they are not combined in a way that would make them effectively a single program.

You can download the last version from here ("Download in other formats: Zip Archive" link at the bottom of the page).

You have to turn Maintenance mode on in the admin panel (Administration » Management » Maintenance mode) during the update.

Ok if commercial license is available - please could you send me a link to it.

There is no explicit commercial license. But if we knew what you want to do with the PunBB code we could offer such a license. Please, send me a PM or email with the description of your project (or how you want to use the PunBB code).

If I wish use the ./include/dblayer/mysql.php in my open-source project, I must leave a comments in it's, that this code in base is from the PunBB project, and that's all?

Yes. And the license of your project is to be GPL.

If this is a single installation on your server, you can do everything you want.

But if you want to distribute a software that includes PunBB code, you have to release it under GPL license. If you want, I can ask about a commercial license.

EDIT: Please, describe what exactly you want to do with the PunBB code.

Maybe it's because of safe mode restrictions? The owner of the folder can change and it affects the file access.

PunBB is compatible with E_ALL. The bug in pun_antispam caused the first issue. I fixed it yesterday. Maybe the bug in online users tracking cause the second one. It was fixed a long time ago, you can test the last version from SVN.

The query in question is "SET NAMES UTF-8". It specifies the encoding for the data obtained from MySQL.

Try to install the latest version of pun_antispam (1.3.3).

1. Go to  Administration -> Users -> Searches
2. Search this user (you can search all users in the Administrators group)
3. Select the user and press the "Change group" button.

As far as I know, there are no files with 777 permissions in PunBB. So, everything is ok.

Try to edit the $base_url variable in config.php. Seems like it should be 'http://www.forum.banglalibrary.org'.

I've already written about .htaccess.dist.

If you do not use URL schemes just forget about it smile

If you had no .htaccess before you have to create it and write there

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^forum\.banglalibrary\.org$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.forum.banglalibrary.org/$1 [R=301,L]

Are there any error messages? Please, post here what redirect code you are trying to use.

For example, this could happen on a virtual hosting when all scripts are running under one user and someone has a site on the same server as you and he knows your login.

Please, ask your hosting support ("I want to install PunBB, but it writes executable PHP scripts into a directory with 777 permissions. Are there any security issues?").

Usually no, but depends on your hosting.

Actually, PunBB has the get_remote_file(...) function. It uses curl or sockets if enabled.

You may use this function in your extensions.

No (simple and working in all cases).

    <install>
        <![CDATA[
        ]]>
    </install>
    
    <uninstall>
        <![CDATA[
        ]]>
    </uninstall>

By the way, you may not write install and uninstall sectios in manifest.xml if they are empty.

I think it's a little bit late for adding new hooks because the final release of PunBB 1.3 was about a year ago smile

Hooks could be added in the next version of PunBB, 1.3.5. But noone knows the date of this release.

Please, write the lines numbers where you want to add hooks.

The warning message about enabling cookies makes sense only for guest posting. For other actions a user must be able to login and that's why he should have cookies enabled.

And I've added the message in this changeset: http://punbb.informer.com/trac/changeset/1401

So what does your extension do? Or I didn't get something and it does somesthing else?
