I just did two upgrades. One works, one doesn't. The one that doesn't won't allow posts unless I turn spam-x off. This version is very different from the last version. The only thing I can do is enable or disable it. The error page seems to indicate that alot of the old stuff is still in the db? This is what I get:

An error has occurred:
2 - preg_match(): Compilation failed: nothing to repeat at offset 0 @ /home/ginny/plugins/spamx/BlackList.Examine.class.php line 72

array(12) {
["this"]=>
&object(blacklist)(2) {
["result"]=>
NULL
["num"]=>
int(0)

Followed by lots more. But towards the end, I see some of the stuff from the old install. Did I miss something?

Thanks

Replying to my own post. I have a little more info. Turns out I have a spamx link on one site and not the other. So, I tried to go to the missing link by placing the path in the url. I now get:

Access Denied
Only Root Users have Access to this Page. Your user name and IP have been recorded.

I have tried from two accounts with the user showing 'checked' as a root user under the users panel. I even wiped out the old stuff and started over. So, I'm more than stumped at this point.

Thanks

I cleared all of my 'personal' items out of the DB and posting is now working. I just have to find out why I don't get access to configure it from the root account.

From the spamx index.php page in the admin directory:

// Only let admin users access this page
if (!SEC_hasRights ('spamx.admin'Wink) {


If I remove the ! I can login and use the page. So, I would have to think that I am not passing the correct value. Since the DB is the only hold over, I would have to think that the problem is in there some where. I have poked around using a gui interface, but I can't find anything that sticks out when comparing the working install to the non working install. Any clues on where to look in the DB?

Thanks

You seem to have lost the 'spamx.admin' permission. Check that your user account is still a member of the 'spamx Admin' group and that that group still contains that permission.

I added spamx admin to one user and logged in. Still nothing. It shows ok in the gui when assigning to the users. That is why I was wondering where in the DB the flag gets set.

Edit the 'spamx Admin' group. Make sure it has the 'spamx.admin' entry checked (under 'Rights'Wink.

bye, Dirk
