Hi, I'm running a clean installation of version 7.5 (sql2000/win2k) . The installation went completly error free, and the forum seems to work ok.

When I try to make a new post or poll. All I get is a blank page. No error messages.
http://217.8.139.45/webwiz/post_message_form.asp?mode=new&am p;FID=1

I have a version 7 up and running on the same server, without any problems.

Thx Gullanian.

I have found som other topics conserning this error, and after what I can undrstand it has something to do with input locales, and the desimal separator sign. I have tryed to set input locales to English (united states) rebooted the server but it didn't solve the problem.

I find it strange that this isn't a problem in older versions. There must be more in to it than just a input locale issue.

Any suggestions?

The server must use a dot to indicate decimal numbers eg.

2.1

not

2,1

If your server uses anything other than a dot in decimal numbers then the forum will not be compatible with your server and you won't beable to use the present version. I don't beleive that there is anyway to fix this problem without changing the way your server views decimal numbers.

I have been looking for a solution and there appears to be no fix with MS on this.

The only way for this to run is if the server uses a period '.' as the sepporator for decimal numbers otherwise you will receive this error.

Contact your web hosts to correct this problem with your server.

You can do something like that with js if that is possible with the forum.
Example:

  var myString = "1,111.22"; // shall become "1.111,22";
  var europeanformat = myString.forceToNumber().fixedDigits(",",".");

Dunno if that helps
