Okay, I think I may have discovered what the problem is, and it's a similar problem to one I had before that you managed to fix up, Jan.

On my 4images gallery, its showing 19 total users online - 19 members and 0 guests.  However, the actual total users online is 50 - 26 members and 24 guests.

So what needs to be done to fix this up?

Uhmm...no further idea, sorry.  :?:


Definitely not what I was hoping to hear. :cry:

Check the user level constants in includes/constants.php
Code: [Select]
define('GUEST', -1);
define('USER_AWAITING', 1);
define('USER', 2);
define('ADMIN', 9);

Jan


Having installed the vBulletin integration mod, I've got (as per the Installation.txt):

// User levels
define('GUEST', 0);
define('USER_AWAITING', 3);
define('USER', 2);
define('ADMIN', 6);

@X-Fan:
if you copied all data excatly from one to the other server it should work. Maybe you lost any data or something. Really hard to say from here.


No data was lost, Jan.  As I said, the gallery works perfectly for me - I can see every category and image.

So why, if I've got categories and images set to allow users to see them, can I see them but registered users cannot?

Did you checked the category and usergroup permissions?


Yes, and they're all set to 2, which is "user".

Maybe you didnt't copied all database tables and data correctly.


Everything was successfully copied over, Jan.  I can see the gallery and its contents absolutely fine.  Everything is there, and there are no visible problems.

However, I'm an administrator on my site.  No regular user or staff member of my site (two different non-moderator usergroups) can see the gallery's contents.

I've just recently moved my site to a new server, and a problem has arisen with my image gallery.  Whilst I, as a site admin, can see all the images in it without any problems, none of my site's registered visitors can see anything in the gallery.  For them, it comes up 0 images in 0 categories.

My gallery is integrated with vBulletin 2.2.8, I'm using the correct sessions.php, and my config files are correct.  What could the problem be?

23
I was after a version that's visible to anyone, like there is here.

24
Is it possible to have "Users browsing" on the front page of the gallery, like we do here, as well as "Users browsing this category" and "Users viewing this image"?

Discussion & Troubleshooting / httpd process hogging CPU; need help!
« on: October 23, 2002, 03:59:59 AM »
G'day all,

I'm needing help with tracking down an httpd process that is regularly chewing up over 90% of the CPU of the server my vBulletin forums reside on. I'm no UNIX/SQL/PHP expert, so whilst I can see and kill the troublesome process, I've no idea how to track down what is causing it!

I'm running vBulletin v2.2.8 with vbPortal v3.0 Upgrade pr8.1 for vBulletin 2.2.4 and 4images v1.7 with vBulletin v2.x Integration, and can provide a full list of the hacks I've installed so as to help track down the problem.

I'm really needing help with this. My site was down for all but 30 minutes today, and it's killing us! :cry:

Please help!!!

Quick and dirty solutions:


Thanks for those.  Is there any chance of a more permanent solution to stop it happening again?

We asked in th vB forums and some users said that this could be a search engine robot spidering the website. Maybe... :?:


Doubtful.  Search engines don't sign up for user accounts and then try to look up passwords! ;)

Empty the sessions table.


Well here's hoping I can, because with the site crashing so much it's near impossible to log successfully into the database!

EDIT: Okay, I managed to empty the sessions table, but that same guest as before is still accessing numerous different files from the image gallery.

Whilst I greatly appreciate the quick fix, I can't sit here and clear the sessions table every 5-10 minutes so I've had to pull my image gallery offline.  Can anything be done to prevent this from happening?

For example, would it be possible to ban their IP address from accessing the image gallery, even though they're not a registered user?  At the very least, is there a quick way to reset every category/image to prevent guests from viewing them?

Preferably another solution, though, as banning the culprit wouldn't stop someone else from doing it, and I'd rather not prevent guests from viewing the gallery (downloading images yes, but I'd like them to see what's there).

Jan or Nicky,

I'm currently experiencing a *HUGE* problem with the vBulletin integration of my 4images gallery.  Currently my site is reporting that there are 424 guests online.  That's not correct, however, as the vast majority of those guests are actually the one user with the same IP address and session ID viewing the details of images in my gallery!  8O

This has already caused my site to crash several times today.  It's been offline for over 8 hours thanks to an "out of memory" error caused by this problem!  :(

What can I do to fix this?  I really need a solution, and fast so that I can get my site stable again!

sometimes you should read installation instruction

     Open sessions.php and edit the configuration part at the top
     of the file.


sessions.php
Quote

// Set here the URL to your vBulletin forum. WITH trailing slash!
$url_app           = "http://www.4homepages.de/vbulletin/";


I do have that set to point to my forums already, and yet I'm still getting the 4homepages.de URL coming up!

EDIT: Okay, my bad, I had uploaded the wrong file!  8O

I just noticed something odd on my gallery after integrating it with vBulletin.

When viewing comments posted to an image, the links for profile and e-mail actually point to here at 4homepages.de rather than my site.

For example:

Quote
http://www.4homepages.de/vbulletin/member.php?action=getinfo&userid=753


That was one person's profile link at my gallery.  How do I stop it from pointing to 4homepages.de and have it point to my web site, as it should? (Note that my gallery is running fine, and all other links work as they should, it's only the profile and e-mail links on comments).
