UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.classic [Archived] UBB.classic Bugs [NOTABUG] Changing URL NonCGI edit breaks Avatar Page 2

Hello,

I'm using UBB 6.5.0 on a BSD Unix Server. What I discovered, is if you change in the URL of your board it wreaks havoc with the second page and beyond of the Avatars. I'm pretty sure that it is this:

Modifying:

Control Panel -> Configuration Settings -> URL: Graphics (NonCGI) Directory

Changing it to a second URL results in the following file not being updated:

noncgi/Avatars/avatars_lib.js

Line number 96 in my instance, it still contains the old URL, which when you go to click on the 'next' to the following page of Avatars, returns a 404 error as the old url is now basically a blank page and a blank cgi-bin.

I'm not running any PHP acceleration, and I have also changed the directory structure slightly, instead of noncgi I changed the directory name to HTML. Perhaps the software was set to expect the directory to be noncgi, or hard coded etc.

Thanks,

Brian

Please do not use [SQUARE BRACKETS] in a bug title. I use them to track which bugs are which. Your use of them caused me to miss this bug.

You can reconstruct the avatar library by hitting the upgrade button (under the Maintenance menu).

While this is technically a bug, I am hesitant to fix it due to the way updating the library works and the frequency of updating the variables (and how that works in the new 6.6 control panel).

I am marking this NOTABUG for now (as opposed to WONTFIX), but am placing it on the list of things to look at later.
