´Register Globals´ Off not supported?
Hi all,
I´m having serious problems installing phpnewsmanager. I tried to install it, but the install.php wouldn´t work. Every time i entered my database information, everything was reset on submit. I searched this forum and discovered that this appears if php´s ´register globals´ variable is set to off, which is the default setting today.
I also saw in the change log, that this issue should have been resolved in phpnewsmanager 1.3, but the newest code doesn´t contain any parts concerning this issue.
I edited the install.php manually and at least got it installed after tediously altering the scripts variables. But then i saw that the rest of the script had the same problems.
Polaris wrote in another thread that this has all been done already using some ´hacks´.
What has to be done?
Where can I find the correct source files?
Thanks,
Jo

What about the other files? they don´t seem to comply with the register globals setting either. I tried to log in after installation and the script just threw another empty login field back at me. I guess, that the whole script needs changing.. or am i wrong here?

Which version of PHP you have? Are you sure that installation process gone well? Did you check that tables were created on mySQL?

What I noticed is though i downloaded the newest package, the version at the bottom of the news index page says 1.45.
Thats why i guessed that there was a version mixup somewhere and therefore all the problems.
I have PHP version 4.3.9.
Thanks
