PBW Emergency Site files v1.51 Finished and fixed.

[Ruatha]

Sure, I can set the sender to something generic.

Working some on a admin page:
Progress here
Admin page example (work in progress)

[Ruatha]

I've set the Host's e-mail as sender, so you'll send the mail to yourself.
I've finished most of the admin screen.
Now you can:
-Change all data in configuration.txt
-Change all data in deadline.txt including deadline length
-Download all player files zipped into one, clear turnfiles dir.
-upload new turnfile and notify all players that new turn is out.

What to do before I post:
-Ability to change all player data.
-Password protect admin screen.
-Update readme.txt


=will be fixed tomorrow.

Well, generic wasn't really what I was looking for. I wanted to be able to set that and make it show my email as the return address. I imagine that's possible right? Maybe another line in the mail.php file?

Ruatha, you are doing a great job, keep it up! You're much appreciated by us addicted PBW players.

I don't know PHP, nor any programming language that well, so this may be a elementary question... but here goes anyway.

I was having a hard time getting the upload flag to work right. It looked like the IF test for the game name wasn't assigning a value to $testname if the $test1 and $test2 variables were equal. Thus throwing off the second IF statement. So I changed the code in Index.php

---From this---
$test1=strtolower(substr($file,0,-9));
$test2=strtolower("$gamename");
$ett=strlen($test1);
$tva=strlen($test2);
$tre=$tva-$ett;

if ($tre>0)
{
$testname=substr($gamename,0,-$tre);
}

if (strtolower(substr($file,0,-9)) == strtolower("$testname"))


---To this---
$test1=strtolower(substr($file,0,-9));
$test2=strtolower("$gamename");
$ett=strlen($test1);
$tva=strlen($test2);
$tre=$tva-$ett;

if ($tre>0)
{
$testname=substr($test2,0,-$tre);
}
else
{
$testname = $test2;
}

if ($test1 == $testname)


After making the changes the upload verification did seem to work OK. I changed the second IF statement so it wouldn't have to process the 'strtolower' (Convert string to lowercse I guess?) command again when the lowercase data was already in the $test1 and $test2 variables. I'm afraid to say this minor little change took me over 1-hour to figure out.

I don't know why the upload notification wasn't working for me, especially since I didn't see anyone else report any problems with it. But, I thought I would let you know incase anyone else was having this problem.

Thanks Rambie.
This site wasn't supposed to be this complex, so it's bad code.
I'm impressed you understood it, I almost doesn't anymore!

Included your change in thi s Last Version:
Complete ver 1.5

Patch 1.5

What's new?

Complete admin page, no more text files editing.
Upload and download turnfiles for the host through admin page.

Added history page.

All new readme.

Problems, report them.

I know the host get's the turnfiles in ACE compressed format, but I can't find a zip utility that supports long filenames through the command line??? (it must be a small exe file)!

The totally rewritten ver 2 is aimed at next PBW downtime, may it never come!

For all who has older Versions than 1.4 and need all files except CONFIGURATION.TXT DEADLINE.TXT and PLAYERDATA.TXT

here is your Version:
Get up to date to ver 1.5

It's the same as patch 1.5 but with MAIL.PHP included.

MAIL.PHP is the configuration file for automatic mails sent out from the server.
If you've already set up auto mails in MAIL.PHP use patch 1.5 instead.
(In MAIL.PHP data for the SMTP server and server mail account is entered, and auto mail must be enabled manually there to work!)


Hmm, I realized something - there was a Bug:
When turn was uploaded, deadline was old deadline + lenght of deadline, should be current time+ deadline length.
Is fixed now in all three archives.

Latest Version is now 1.51 (in zipfiles 1.5)

All is well ( I thought there was a bug but I had forgotten to update my own site.... )

I need to find a way to make the page refresh every time it is visited.
The meta tag I'm using now doesn't seem to work.
And I don't want it to refresh every X second.
And I don't want to use Java, only HTML or PHP.....

EDIT 1:
Problem seems solved, stand by for ver 1.52 coming soon. (hours)

EDIT2:
Nope not that easy!

Edit3:
I've tried:

code:

---

<script language=" JavaScript" ><!-- 

function MyReload() 

{ 

window.location.reload(); 

} 

//--></script> 



Then change your <Body> to say; 



<Body onLoad=" MyReload()" > 

---

and

code:

---

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-Cache">

<META HTTP-EQUIV="EXPIRES" CONTENT="Mon, 31 Dec 2001 23:59:59 GMT">

---

Still don't work.
If players after uploading their turnfiles doesn't press refresh on their browsers they think the upload has failed!
Needs to fix this!

Ruatha,

Problems with the 1.51 files on my game. I can't change the admin password. Get errors in the log:

[30-Oct-2003 16:14:30] PHP Warning: fopen(password.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/spaceemp/public_html/pbw/geoschmo/kothasvge/setpassword.php on line 5

Also, the link to download turn files and clear the directory doesn't work. I get a 404 error on that one.

The button to upload the new gamefile works partialy. It uploads teh new game file, but it doesn't move the old one to the backup folder. I end up with both of them in the gamefile directory. Not sure if the players get their email. I am checking on that.

error log for this one:

Hi, sorry Geo.

The upload button doesn't move the old file, it stays there as backup until the directory is cleared (stupid but so is it), the players will still get the right file though.

All the others is due to missing files, my fault, thought they where included in the older Versions but in some they where not.

Here is the fixed archives:

(Geo, use the patch below, not getuptodate!)

patch 1.5 fixed

complete 1.5 fixed
