Problems with xoops after update

Hello all,

It's been a while since i was active here. But i'm making a XOOPS site again.

After i updated my site to XOOPS 2.0.12a i've had some problems, i made a welcome block, with html, some text and pictures in it, it worked fine before, but since i updated to the newest xoops, the block looks empty on the site. But if i look in admin, everything is still as it's supposed to be in that block.

I tried to make the block again and to make a bb code instead of html, but in both i still had the same problem.

And now.. suddenly, i can't change blocks anymore at all, if i try to it says "Valid token expired ", same with adding a new block.

I did update to 2.0.13 now, still the same problems. I also overwritten all XOOPS files, except the mainfile.php from the newest XOOPS version. But it still doesn't work.

So, if anyone could helpe me with this, it would be appriciated.

This is the site:

Thanks in advance,
Gilian

Update the system module in modules admin, and if you have cloned templates check the system templates to see if any need to be generated.

HTH.

update system module didn't work and i only have to generate templates for modules i don't even use, but if i do try to generate them, it says "Valid token expired " again
emptying the template_c dir works neither

i never had this problem before.. i don't even know what is ment by "Valid token expired"..

Do you use a custom session? Try turning it off.

Do you have a very high number for the custom session expiration time?

yeah, i have the max (2147483647)
i've done that for the auto-login hack, so it works for a long time
never had problems before with it (and i have the login hack for XOOPS 2.013)

Re: Problems with xoops after update

That might have something to do with the Security Token problem.

I'm mixing things together, but think I did not try to fix it in 2.0.x, but I know I did for XOOPS 2.2

Try setting the session expiration time to a lower value (10-20.000 perhaps) - you'll probably have to go directly through the database (prefix_config table) to do so.

ok, i changed it to 10000 in the xoops_config table
thanks, it works fine now, i can change things again :)

but not i still have one problem left:
if i make any custom blocks, the content isn't visible, doesn't matter if i make it in html, auto fomrat or whatever, i don't see any content on the main page.
This also worked fine before the update.. but not anymore

Re: Problems with xoops after update

Now that you have the invalid token problem fixed, you should update the system module, and generate any missing system templates in your cloned templates. The content will come back then.
