Update / Edit problems

[kuroi]

That's not the version that ships with 1.3.9b or the security patch. It's most likely your problem, but if you're not using any add-on mods, I can't recommend a safe fix without knowing how it came to be there.

So, can I conceivably overwrite that file with the one from 1.3.9b / patch or is that not an actual fix?

[kuroi]

Without knowing how or why that version of the file got there, I can't give you safe advice. You may have other files that are out of date, and that file may have changes that you need for other reasons.

As you've only just done your upgrade, you will presumably know where this comes from. But you need to share this information for us to advise you properly.

I don't know where it would have come from. Yes, I just did the upgrade and the security patch prior to upgrading. I don't believe I've added any 3rd party mods...only just what came with the initial install. Maybe I'll be able to determine where it came from, but maybe not. Thanks for helping.

I did check that page and it was with the upgrade but wasn't actually published for some reason. I made sure that page was then published and everything works fine now. Thanks.

"page"?
"published"?

I assume by "page" you really meant "file"? and were referring to the admin html_output.php file?

I assume by "published" you're referring to some sort of software on your PC? What alarms me most about the word "published" is that Microsoft introduced that term in their FrontPage software, and others. And it's a BAAAD idea to use any MS junk, er, software, when working with PHP files.

I too am worried by the word "published". It sounds like you may not have the right tools for the job.
