1.3.9 whos online error?? maybe

[CJPinder]

Kitcorsa,

If Who's Online was working for you in v1.3.8 then try the following:

Edit /admin/whos_online.php and at line 386-389 there should be these lines:

$suhosinExtension = extension_loaded('suhosin');
$suhosinSetting = strtoupper(@ini_get('suhosin.session.encrypt'));
$hardenedStatus = ($suhosinExtension == TRUE || $suhosinSetting == 'On' || $suhosinSetting == 1) ? TRUE : FALSE;
if ($session_data != '' && $hardenedStatus == TRUE) $session_data = ''; 

Remove those lines and then upload the modified file to your /admin directory.

Hopefully that should allow you to see the contents of people's carts. If they are still not showing, ask your host to turn off Suhosin Session Encryption.

Regards,
Christian.

The v1.3.9 /admin/whos_online.php file only has 453 lines. Are you using an add-on that replaces that file?

Did removing the lines allow you to see the contents of visitors carts?

yes removing the line allowed the whos online cart to return.

nope i have found on alot of files when using notepad++ the line count differs. if using the standard notpad the line count is correct.

Cool. Glad you got it working.

How odd, it was notepad++ I was using to look at the file and determine the line numbers.

Is there a workaround for 1.3.9e whos_online.php yet?

Thanks,

The workaround is in v1.3.9e, which was released yesterday.

Hmmm, I upgraded first thing yesterday morning when I saw the email alert. Who's Online is working but I am not able to see the items in the shoppers cart again. I even tried uncommented the line that mentioned having suhosin and seeing errors but still not seeing the cart items. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Marc

Hi,

I think the problem is because the code is checking if suhosin is installed but not checking if session encryption is turned on or off. Try this...

Edit /admin/whos_online.php and starting at line 387 you should see...

    if (!$suhosinExtension) {
      if (strpos($session_data, 'cart|O') == 0) $session_data = base64_decode($session_data);
      if (strpos($session_data, 'cart|O') == 0) $session_data = '';
    } 

...change it to...

      if (strpos($session_data, 'cart|O') == 0) $session_data = base64_decode($session_data);
      if (strpos($session_data, 'cart|O') == 0) $session_data = ''; 

Leave the commented out line below this commented out.

I hope that helps.

Regards,
Christian.
