Hi Borg,

I think I found a bug in 7.5 I used the search function but could not find anything about is. I was logged on as an Administrator, and I tried to modyfy a group, but i got the message Sorry, only members with sufficient permission can access this page

Strange, because I’m an Admin ? The same happens when i add a new group. I already deleted the cookies, but this does not help

 

With kind regards,

 

Alexander

Have you got more details to try and replicate this prblem?

Name of new group?
Which page or link you click in the admin to get this to happen?
Is this the main admin account or a second one you have created?

I used the default administrator account in the forum (first admin user) I went to the admin menu, Group Admin and changed the ADMIN group to Administrators. After this i clicked at Submit Group details, and got the error. The same happens when i make a new group in this screen.

With kind regards,

Change line 98 of group_details.asp to:-

strGroupName = Request.Form("GroupName")

And line 205 to:-

<input name="GroupName" type="text" id="GroupName" value="<% = strGroupName %>" size="20" maxlength="39">

I had exactly the same problem and your fix worked fine. Your second change was on line 207 of an unmodified file for me though...

Anyhoo, it worked, I'm happy.

Cheers

Okay, thanks... but I have a further problem... Now when I try to create a group I get:

Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A000D)
Type mismatch: 'CLng'
/forum/admin/group_details.asp, line 99

This is the source:

'Read in the group details
strGroupName = Request.Form("GroupName")
lngMinimumPosts = CLng(Request.Form("posts"))
blnSpecialGroup = CBool(Request.Form("rank"))
intStars = CInt(Request.Form("stars"))
strCustomStars = Request.Form("custStars")

lngMinimumPosts... is the line 99.  Could this be caused by the problem that I see nothing in the combo boxes, and therefore can not select a number of stars or number of posts because there is nothing to select? Or does it have to do with:

  • POST Data:
    GroupName=test&stars=+++&custStars=&rank=true&am p;am p;posts=++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++&postBack=true &mode=new&Submit=Submit+User+Group+Details

    or both?

    thanks,
         Antron

    Sounds like you have a corrupted file, you should have a drop down menu containing numbers that passes a number across to be read into the part of the file that is throwing up the error.

    yep, reinstalled worked.. may have been a problem when I added the forums to my wwwroot FrontPage web and changed the theme.

    I'm not clear on how to update the background images and such manually? I saw something about skin_something.asp but I saw no such file?

    [edit]  in forum\include\skin_file.asp

    got it - experimenting now
