Hi all,

my host(surpass) has upgraded php to 5.3.17 and it seems to have made the xorewriteModule hack not work.

It seems to be the rewriting of the urls to remove the /modules/ part that is not working e.g <{$xoAppUrl /modules/article/}> in the theme should point to sitename.com/news/ but it points to sitename.com/modules/article/.

I can still manually type in sitename.com/news/ and it will work fine, but the rewriting has stopped working.

I have turned on xoops debug and i get the following 6 errors:

easiest fix ever. After a quick search of google it seems that indentation can sometimes casue the end of line errors. So in xoRewriteModule.ini.php line 13 where it has
[xoRewriteModule]
there was a indentation of one space, simply deleted that space and everything seems tio work now, no errors at all.

Not sure how it works but it works, hope this can help anyone else with similar problems.

I think many xoops modules need to be compatible with php 5.3

It didn't work for me. But I found another fix.

I read that php ini parser cannot parse a php file. So I removed the php tags and comments.

Now the file looks like:

[xoRewriteModule]
modulename="newname"
...
