Hello,

I have a problem with the siggen and PHP safe_mode. Siggen always displays the following message :

PHP safe_mode is turned on
Image upload/delete functions might not operate properly

If i check the php.ini safe_mode is turned off. Also phpinfo() shows that safe_mode is turned off

http://wow.mighty-force.de/test.php

Does someone know how to fix this ?

Thx for help

The relevant code:

Code: Select all

if( ini_get('safe_mode') )
{
        $functions->setMessage('PHP <span class="red">safe_mode</span> is turned <span class="green">on</span><br />Image upload/delete functions <u>might</u> not operate properly');
}

Something must be turning it on.

Well ...

... but how to solve the problem ?

I'll have to tinker with that later. My system currently has the upload directory read-only because I'm sharing it with several guilds, and I have to look at how to patch the code to allow multiple per-guild upload directories.

All that is, is a notice that the image uploading functions might not work

Do you actually have problems with SigGen other than just that notice?
If not, then you have nothing to worry about

I'm puzzled how phpinfo reports safe_mode off, but ini_get reports it on. Could some other config file be injecting an override on the global setting? Perhaps in a .htaccess file somewhere above the roster directory.

Possibly

If it just were a notice, I would ignore it But i get the following, too :

Save Images
Save images to server Yes No
Save Image Functions Disabled

So I can't save any sigs as images. And most forums just allow images as signatures and not the following

http://wow.mighty-force.de/addons/siggen/sig.php?name=Esaria&saveonly=0

I don't know where to search for this. An .htacces file ? I don't think so, but i will look for it.

I just check it, there is noe .htacces file in the whole structure of the directory.

u could add to the update of each user a sig and ava, this works for me ^^ although php safe_mode

Look into Apache's mod_rewrite. It lets you take a URL that looks like an image and convert it internally to anything else, like a script invocation.

The Sig and Avatar gets updated every time, this is not the problem

This would be the solution, but how to do this ?

You don't even need to. You can use addons/siggen/sig.php/<name>.png in the default setting.

Yeah, works great THX !

damn, doesn't work great

The signatures now differs from each other. If I use this version :



it doesn't show the actual signatur. If I look at the signature with the following link it displays different values (the true ones for EP) :



How do I get the right values in the first version ?
