Search Module don't work..

Posted: Sat May 22, 2004 5:30 pm

Hi,
My search module is stopped to work..
when I do a search It's show only the last news page resaults.. Question

My last interventions are :

1-Changing the path of my site from Admin Panel
from mysite.com/html/ to mysite.com/html

2-Changing My_Accont index file from Raven's Autoactivation hacked index file to the standart index file (with activation)

Thanks for any advise..

Usişng : 6.0 ----> 7.0 patched (4 sites running on same db if help )

Are you using Fortress by chance? I've seen it reported to cause wierd errors with certain languages?

If not try using the old 7.0 search as a test to see we can narrow down to a time where it did work. You could even try the file from the 7.3 version of the patched Series.

But if we can get to a version that works it would help to locate what has changed. If you've tried some of those already with no results we'll have to dig deeper. But all the new filtering I could see where the language could be raising a hidden issue.

When I tried it I was able to get other then the first news story but never more then one result.

Actually I tried again searching
"et" and it returns 4 results from News so its working to search news somewhat. Though I'd have thought it would return a huge number of results for such a common string. (and 3 results for weblinks)

That's true ..
I get only one result and only from the last new page..

1-I tryed 7.1, no effect.
2-I just figured out that It can't find even in the last news page..
3-I changed back my sites' path : no resault..
(In this case ,nothing to do with the path modification...)
4- I changed back Raven's Autoactivation hacked index.php in Your_account Module index.php) : no resault ..
In this case ,nothing to do with with Your_Account index.php change

It's strange.. Confused

Yes its strange and no I don't think the settings or account files should have any effect on the Search module. I'm at a little bit of a loss here assuming that all the tables are ok because your sites active and you'd notice if the authors table or stories table was corrupt and not responding and the search would throw some error message.

I don't think the Patch files have anything in them that would cause this behavior I did a quick compare and see nothing that stands out and they work on the test site.

Which leads back to whats being truncated here the query or the result? I'm guessing the query. Lets try taking mainfile.php and removing all the new filtering from it once just to verify there isn't any issues there.

Try commenting out this Union Tap in your mainfile.php its about the only recent addition there. If there is no improvement let us know maybe we can get some more input from someone else. Be sure to put them back if there is no improvement.

Code:




//Union Tap


//Copyright Zhen-Xjell 2004 http://nukecops.com


//Beta 3 Code to prevent UNION SQL Injections


unset($matches);


unset($loc);


if (preg_match("/([OdWo5NIbpuU4V2iJT0n]{5}) /", rawurldecode($loc=$_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"]), $matches)) {


   die("YOU ARE SLAPPED BY <a href=\"http://nukecops.com\">NUKECOPS</a> BY USING '$matches[1]' INSIDE '$loc'.");


}

Have you tried running a REPAIR on your database using phpmyadmin? Also, I assume that everything was working? If so, what changes were made that stopped it all that you can rememeber?

No I couldn't ..Since 4 days my hosting company has tons of problems, so I can't acces to my DB Sad

Last modification that I did :

Quote:

1-Changing the path of my site from Admin Panel from mysite.com/html/ to mysite.com/html

2-Changing My_Accont index file from Raven's Autoactivation hacked index file to the standart index file (with activation)

(I restored them back but no improvment)
In addition to those, if I remember well, I was tryed to resolve 2.06 BB2 Avatar issue changing site paths at Admin cp and following the instructions on this Forum , but I couldn't repair it and restored back .. Confused

Right now I am going to try one more time to acces to my db..

Problem with my search Module which doesn't search before 16th May 2004 is Resolved..

Hi,

Yes my search module problem is resolved:

In those days (16 th. May), after an hack attempt (author injection, before installing Sentinelle ), for security reasons, after creating a new one, I was deleted my hacked Admin ID which was created during the install of new phpbb2.0.6 to Nuke...*

This was the reason of such bizarre behavior...

After recreating my old deleted Admin ID, averything working fine now.. Laughing

Thanks a lot four your valuable time and support

Raven and Sixonetonoffun

--------------------------------------
*Nuke Version 7.0 (upgraded from 6.5 ) + phpbb2.0.6 to Nuke..

In those times BB Forums wasn't included yet to the official Nuke 6.5 package...
So, manual install of BB was needed and during this install, "dublicate" Admin ID was necessary...
(dublicate : First one for "normal" PhpNuke Admin, second one - same - for BB2 first admin login..)
