Mostly, the old db was corrupt and the users table was gone

Getting anything back from the old forums requires going into phpmyadmin and hoping it doesn't stall the server because of the corruption

Hi, I still have not received a confirmatino email from my real username: Laibcoms with email: Laibeus@Laibcoms.com

I prefer to use that over this one I am using for this posting.

Thanks!!

Ok, done!

Would just like to say thanks to Zanix and Zeryl for helping to get me get through my registration/activation woes via the IRC applet. Dunno why it wasn't sending the email, but I can post now, so I'm happy.

Keep up the outstanding job w/ the WoWRoster and all its extras! Every time I come to visit this site things keep looking better. =)

Thanks zanix!!

And as gift (in case you haven't tried yet).

Here's one solution in solving the domain name problem using .htaccess

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([a-z0-9-]+\.)?wowroster\.org$
RewriteRule (.*) http://wowroster.net/$1 [R=301]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([a-z0-9-]+\.)?wowprofilers\.com$
RewriteRule (.*) http://wowroster.net/$1 [R=301]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.wowroster\.net$
RewriteRule (.*) http://wowroster.net/$1 [R=301]


R=301 is permanent redirect. Will tell bots that you have a new URL and that all links in their database should be changed accordingly.

RewriteCond will automatically change the URL to the one in RewriteRule w/o affecting anything added by your script/CMS/forums after the TLD (ie .com, .net, .org, .info, .ws).

The result of the above .htaccess code will be:

If someone visits or register via

Code: Select all

http://www.wowprofilers.com/Your_Account/register/agreed=1.html

.htaccess will change it to:

Code: Select all

http://www.wowroster.net/Your_Account/register/agreed=1.html

then this piece of code (as shown above):

Code: Select all

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.wowroster\.net$
RewriteRule (.*) http://wowroster.net/$1 [R=301]


will change the URL to:

Code: Select all

http://wowroster.net/Your_Account/register/agreed=1.html

^_^


Hope it works for wowroster.net

i had problems getting it to accept my hotmail address.. i had to use the email my internet service provider gave me...

Hi,

Here's an update to the .htaccess code.

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([a-z0-9-]+\.)?wowroster\.org$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^([a-z0-9-]+\.)?wowprofilers\.com$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.wowroster\.net [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://wowroster.net/$1 [R=301,L]


Should work fine with latest server apps version (apache and linux specifically).

I am having problems downloading due to a loss of my login information.

I login with no problems. It goes to my account. If I click Download link at the top, it goes to download but now on the leftside, it shows Anonymous and has the login box. I had to fool with this several times to get the 1.7.0 version of WOWRoster downloaded as it kept losing my login system variables. However, I never could get the download for the images. I would click the zip file, it would go to a page and then I would click the download icon which would take me back to the page with the different zip files (one an upgrade and the other the current one).

As there is no email address for who to contact, this is the only way I know to inform you of this problem.

Also, I have been running Roster inside phpNuke but due to our desire to use RaidTracker and Talents, which seems to have a problem inside phpNuke, I'm trying to install a clean roster in the root and then just provide a link inside phpNuke that will open a new web browser and thus the Roster will not be inside Nuke. Any suggestions?

As the beginning of the topic says, make sure you are accessing the site at
wowroster.net

Thank you Zanix for helping me get registered. Still not sure why I wasn't recieving activation. But that's ok you made it work anyway. lol

Hey matt them email errors I see above are due to a reverse dns lookup ask your host to add a ptr record for this domain name that points back to the servers ip address.

Hi,

I've got this login problems since I registered but now they are going worst and worst. I can't play with your workaround anymore, no way
I am unable to stay loggued in and naviguate on your portal after having cleared the cache, deleted all my cookies and restarted the browser, and I have the same problem on Firefox, Opera and Internet Explorer and only on this portal so this is obviously not a client issue

Make absolutely sure you are accessing the site at wowroster.net
Any other url wowroster.org, wowprofilers.com WILL fail

well this is due to cookie settings and wowroster.net is what we append the cookies to as of now even though we have many other domain names linking to us. Please make sure you are logging into our site via http://wowroster.net and make sure to add our site to your trusted sites list.

I do.
I usually read all the workarounds before asking something or report a problem :rabbit2:

Crossing my finger I seem to stay loggued with firefox now, but for how long?
