Ah yes, the ever helpful not the most immediate version...
And this is mentioned as a bug fix for e or f? No. I checked before I posted. You forgot to note that one of the servers was also running a major version behind on MySQL and both were not running the bleeding edge of latest unstable beta release Linux...
What the 2 servers are would be a fairly representative sample of the current state of production servers as a whole. One fairly recent, one not completely recent with some things definitively out of date. Everything is not immediately updated with the latest batch of twitchy, unstable patches, because in a production environment, you can't just break things and then spend hours or days trying to track down what introduced the new problems. You test what you will be installing or upgrading against what you have running. The Fantastico! auto installer on just about every cP installation out there runs a couple of steps behind because of such reasons. This is the reality of the world, not the ideal. The DB has not changed from d to f, and there have only been minor revisions, none of which are related to the issue at hand (one of which improved function with that outdated version of MySQL on that really crappy server).
I am fairly sure I matched the capitalization and passwords as well. After all, I got nearly all of that similar stuff correct in my original post (including really complicated stuff like punctuation).
As I said, this is not my first rodeo (yes, I know I did not say "this is not my first rodeo"), even if this would be my first appearance around ZC in a few years.
Shall I explain? I was a contrib back in the early days of TEP (know that one?), and dispensed advice and made anonymous contributions to many modules through tons of hours in osC IRC (HPDL used to never log on and would loose admin in his own channel so, I kept it registered and active for ages). I was around doing CRE and Ian's original 'many contributions pkg' installs while "part-timing" it at CRW with Sal while Ian (wilt) was busily splitting himself across the multiple projects and eventually got just as tired as many of us were at seeing no progress at all with osC... and thereby I was peripherally involved initial testing with, early installs of and donated toward Ian's new baby which became ZenCart. This was around the same time HPDL was bumping the indicator on osC from 2.0 to 2.1 to 2.2RC (where I am pretty sure it still is after some 7-8 years, I suppose IRC isn't the only thing HPDL can't remember to check in on). The last time I chatted with Ian was probably a year before this forum went up, which was (according to your account creation date) about 8 months before you showed up and found Zen.
Thanks for the enlightening, and ever so helpful education :smartalec:.
BTW - Are all 44,000 of your posts so brilliant? I burned out a long time ago trying to make meaningful, helpful replies, full of long explanations, code fixes and work-arounds... but 6 years and 44,000 posts of this type of marvelous, insightful, extensive, vast gold standard information is completely unimaginable. You must be superhuman.
See you in another 8 years, I'm out.
