Hey guys,

Version: 2.0.10

I am not sure what the problem is but any link that uses "op=blahblahblah" fails.

New Module --> Topics Manager is one example.

I believe it might be a problem with my hosting company (AGAIN). Perhaps that have fopen commands turned off in php or something. I am a newb.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Explain "fails". Do you get an error message? If not, do you have PHP debug turned on?

When you click on the link it automatically redirects you to the module's generic "Customization" menu.

For instance, if you click the rectangular news icon on the left side of the admin menu you are presented with the "News Configuration" page.

Than if click "General Configuration" you are taken to the correct "General Configuration" screen. This link uses a "fct=blahblah" command.

The other two links "Topics Manager" & "Post/Edit Articales" just refresh the generic "General Configuration" screen. Both of these links use the "op=..." URL.

This sympton is present in other modules as well such as "Downloads"

Hope that helps.

Ok, it would be nice for somone to verify my findings/assumptions.

1) "op=" & "fct=" are variables that transmitted through the URL address.

2) If the php script does not recognize the variable then it simply runs as if you just called up the php file itself.

So I believe the problem is that the "op=" variable is not being recognized, thusly causing the script to run as if no variable is present in the URL.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Using PHP5 with the php.ini directive "register_long_arrays" disabled?

The modules included with the full XOOPS core packages are not updated to work with PHP5 since XOOPS 2.0.10 is the last release featuring these modules.

In the case of News, version 1.3.1 is out and improves the standard module greatly.

You are correct. I am running PHP 5.0.1 with register_long_arrays disabled.

I have contacted my hosting company about changing this.

I am wondering how many problems I am going to encounter trying to get a fully functional XOOPS site + modules up and running on PHP 5.

I tried searching for a good article on this setup but did not find anything.

Any advice?
