The issues that are fixed with 1.3.7sr2 should not enable anyone to upload files to your site. You may have another problem in your setup (see, for example, the comments on issues with Gallery in this thread).

Also, there is a geeklog-announce mailing list - the update was announced there. And, of course, the "GL Version Test" link in your Admin menu.

bye, Dirk

i made changes yust now
i still run v1.3.6.
i hope i don't have another problem

i'm going for geeklog anounce mailinglist right now

version test tells me only abut my current version and currently the newest version of geek.

i know that i'm running old version, but i had a nitemare upgrading to 136 (i got thru yust all the bugs there were, the one that emptyed my database all ower again (couse of incomlete language file) harased me most), and i wanted to upgrade to next clean version, that would be 1.3.8., but it seems that i will have to upgrade to 137 first.
i won't even ask when the 138 release will be released.

nevertheles

i must upgrade one more install of geek that i administer, this one is version 137r1
that means that i can replace old files with new ones.
the only trouble is with config.php
is there any new stuff in it besides warning about alowable html???

i upgraded all files that are in tarball except config.php
version test tells me that i'm still running version 137sr1.
i see that version is read from config.php ...
i suppose i'm encouraged to look at cvs or something for changes of config.php.
if there are yust these two changes, pls let me know.
it's too late now for a 'cvs jurney'.

Yes, the only changes in config.php were the version number and the warning about allowed HTML.
