Bugtracking and FAQ
The following bugs and problems in ClassAd 3.5 are known:
- Messages in child categories are not yet summed up by the mother category within complex category model. The problem has been solved in version 4.0.
- Performance problems on slow webservers (<500Mhz) or on high traffic load, if the complex category model is used with a high amount of categories. This problem was solved with the release of version 3.0 (by integration of a caching-system) and has been improved in version 4.0.
Version 2.0 - Fixed in current downloadable version (2.01):
- Updated and working database install and update script (Wrong text, partially incompatible SQL statements)
- Editing articles impossible ("No message selected!") - fixed with current downloadable version
- After submitting a new ad with a picture attachment only a blank page was shown. This can be solved by turning the property $LY_GD_VERSION2 to false (config.php.inc). Some webservers do not seem to run the newest version of GD-library.
- Various picture upload problems
- "set_time_limit could not be set in safe_mode" will now be suppressed
- correct link to ad in tell-a-friend mail
- problem of unrecognized jpg-files solved when uploading with Netscape- or Opera browsers. Jpg-files now can have the suffixes .jpg, .jpeg, .jpe
- As a new feature it is now possible to configurate (see inc/config.inc.php for details) that uploaded pictures, smaller than the pictures' default width, are not upsized, but remain at their original size
FAQ - all versions:
- While submitting a new ad with a picture attachment, you may receive the following message: "Fatal error: imagecreatetruecolor(): requires GD 2.0 or later in classifieds/inc/baseclass.inc.php on line 866". To solve this problem, simply edit inc/config.inc.php and set the parameter $LY_GD_VERSION_2 to false. This error occurs on Linux/Unix systems with version GD 1.6x installed and is a result of different versions of GD-library on Windows and Unix systems.
