Hope someone can help.

I have been trying to get the FUD forum working at the following location with some success but it won't allow people to register or post messages. If anyone has any suggestions, that would be great.

The forum is located: http://www.ili.ca/forum

When I try to post a message to the board, I get 'An error has occured. Contact the Webmaster.'

When I try to register as a new user, I can get past the d.o.b. page, but once I have filled out all of the information on the following page about the user, and click submit, it takes me back to the age verification page, and I loose all of what has been typed in. (seems to loop)

The installation seemed to work quite well, and had no problems at all until trying to post to the forum.

Thanks in advance for any help that can be suggested.

-Alex

P.S. The error log contains the following:

This is a rather unusual problem, could you meet me on irc ( irc.openprojects.net #fudforum) and I'll try to see if I can solve this problem.

I was wondering if a solution has ever been found for this issue. I'm in pretty much the same situation on a new install (Apache, MySQL, and PHP all current Red Hat versions...FUD Forum also current release).

Things I've noticed:
Registration returns users back to birth date page w/o error
Cannot add new categories...no error
Posting (as root...only current user) errors (same as AliMan)

The version I'm currently running is 2.2.3. It's the lastest version I could find w/o getting into the 2.3.x dev releases.

version 2.2.3 is indeed the latest 'stable' release, however 2.2.5 or better yet 2.3.0RC1 while being a development release is probably much better to use since they contain many bug fixes for issues found in 2.2.3 release.

2.3.0 will probably be marked as stable no later then Friday anyway.

Ok, tried installing 2.3.0 RC1, but no good. Still cannot register new users or post.

Registering still takes users back to Age Verification Screen
Posting (as root...only user): ERROR: SYSTEM ERROR

Can you please give me a URL to your forum, I'd very much like to see the problem, maybe it'll give me some clues about how to solve it.

Aha, I found the problem.

In your php.ini configuration the 'file_upload' has no value, this particular option (bug in early versions of php) if not set would result in loss of POST request data from forms that contain a file_upload control.
Assign a value to that option and your forum will begin to work once again.

BTW, this also seems to happen when file_uploads is set to "Off" in /etc/php.ini (FUD version 2.3.0RC2). Not sure if this is the default in Redhat 7.3 (can't remember if my php installation came with Redhat, or if I installed some rpms later - the php version is 4.1.2).

I found out by turning php-logging to highest level, the error log would then show me:

PHP Warning: File uploads are disabled in Unknown on line 0

Only after I had spent some hours locating the problem did I see that you already answered it here... ;-(

That is true, it is a bug in PHP, which is fixed in later versions.
